    Hikvision Test email fails?

    Thanks @sportster . I think I did the above, but I'll follow your step-by-step instructions and see if I can make it work again.

    Hikvision Test email fails?

    Unfortunately not. I think it's the making application specific passwords that I must be making mistakes with. I've had a few years of great service from this Hikvision system, but without reliable notifications, it's not much use for my needs. After having someone attempt to break in to my...

    Hikvision Test email fails?

    Simply down to unreliable notifications. I'm currently using Hik-Connect and it's still as unreliable as when I used it years ago. For example my wife went to work this morning triggering line crossing and there was no alert on my phone. When I check the App, the line crossing is showing under...

    Hikvision Test email fails?

    I've generated the email App Password and entered in the Password field in the email section of the NVR, but Test still fails. I started looking in to generating App password for the email account that I want to receive the alerts (gmx). It's advising me to install an authentication App on my...

    Hikvision Test email fails?

    @codlord thanks for the reply. I don't use an App for the email account that I use for sending email alerts from the NVR. I'll check out the link you posted and hopefully get it sorted.

    Hikvision Test email fails?

    New problem. I use an outlook email account to send alerts FROM the NVR. I recently had an email from Outlook stating "Update your sign-in technology before September 16th, 2024 to maintain email access." As of Midnight, I'm no longer receiving email alerts (Test fails also). It's nothing to...

    Hikvision Test email fails?

    OK, I've solved my issue. I was on the right track, thinking the constant email alerts were being blocked by email providers. BUT I was looking at it from the receiving end. It was the email address that I use to SEND the emails (I had reached a daily limit for sending emails).

    Hikvision Test email fails?

    Hope this can read, otherwise I'll start a new thread. email notifications were working fine this morning. We then had workmen working on the house. This led to constant alerts, so I muted my phone. They had a lunch break, so I unmuted my phone in case anyone wanted to call/text me. Once they...

    No email alerts via Gmail now?

    For the past few days I've not been receiving any email alerts. If I check "Alarms" on IVMS 4500 I can see that that app is receiving alerts, but I don't get any alert (i.e. I only know if Line Crossing has been activated by taking the time to search within IVMS 4500, obviously missing alerts as...

    Can't find a way of changing lease time. Thanks again for all your help.

    Can't connect remotely (even via IE browser at home)

    Router is in a domestic setting. I checked lease time using ipconfig, which showed - Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : 14 August 2021 04:07:26 Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : 17 August 2021 11:48:46

    Thanks @David sounds like the perfect solution!

    Can't connect remotely (even via IE browser at home)

    That's exactly what seems to be happening. I'll try your suggestion of letting router assign IP address. The only issue with that that I can think of is whenever I try to access the NVR via browser, I won't immediately know the IP address it's been assigned. But if it overcomes the need for...

    Can't connect remotely (even via IE browser at home)

    Thanks @David router is a NOW TV Hub2. I still have a Sky SR102 which I could try. As mentioned in first post it had been running without issue for a long time, so I'm pretty certain it's nothing to do with settings, but I'm open to any possibilities. I have previously reset the router via...
