Configuration reception notifications SMS and mail on Router Zyxel LTE3301-Plus

GB_Informatics

Hello, I'm desperately trying to configure SMS and Mail notifications, in particular to be informed when the modem status changes (when the modem switches from WAN WIFI to WAN 5G) but I can't manage to receive the SMS or mine.

For emails, I've set :
Mail Server Address: stmp.gmail.com
Port: 465
Authentication Username: Name of my google account
Authentication Password: application password created on google
Account e-mail Address: my google account address
Connection Security : SSL

How can I get help?

Hi GB_Informatics,

Have you ever received an email notification before (you need to enable more types of log-event, or at least enable "System")? If so, does it mean that email notification works in other use cases but not the one you mentioned above?

Further, what do you mean "when the modem switches from WAN WIFI to WAN 5G"? I can understand 5G-WAN, but not Wi-Fi WAN.

Regards,

Bob

Hi ,

I never received the email and SMS notifications.
When I go to the logs, I get the error message ‘I
It is impossible to retrieve the information now. Please try again’. It is impossible to do anything.

Hi,

Sounds like it's related to SMS notification not working in the first place.

Could you please try the following settings?

(1) "Mail Server Address: stmp.gmail.com"

Please make sure the mail server configured on the LTE3301-PLUS is "smtp.gmail.com".

(2) Port: please configure 587 instead.

(3) Connection Security : please use STARTLS instead.

(4) Authentication username: please specify full email address.

After configuring these settings, enable "System" on "Log Settings" page. Log out and log in the LTE3301-PLUS, and check if there's an additional log on LTE3301-PLUS' UI. If there is, please check if your email receives a notification.

Regards,

Bob

Hi,

I made a typing error...

I created a configuration with the parameters mentioned in the previous answer.

However, when I click on "E-mail Log Now", I get the error "It is impossible to retrieve the information now. Please try again". There's nothing I can do.

In "E-mail Log Settings", I have this configuration :

E-mail Log Settings : Enable

Mail Account : My address mail

Select one account : my address gmail

System Log Mail Subject : Router

Security Log Mail Subject : Router

Send Log to (E-Mail Address) : my address gmail

Send Alarm to (E-Mail Address) : my address gmail

Alarm Interval (seconds) : 10

All options are activated

Hi,

I'm trying your configuration but I'm still not receiving the emails.

Hi,

Could you please set up the email account on Email Notification page again?

I suppose you copied and pasted Google's application password to this page. When Google shows your application password, the 16 characters are split into 4 parts with space in between, it looks like this "abcd efgh ijkl mnop".

I copied and pasted this string "abcd efgh ijkl mnop" when setting email account. Once finished setting email account, I click "Email Logs Now" and I don't receive logs in my mail account either. If I remove the space, which makes the password become "abcdefghijklmnop", and click "Email Logs Now", I can receive logs in my mail account.

Regards,

Bob

Hello,
It works for sending logs but it doesn't work for email when the router is not from WIFI to WAN 5G and from WAN 5G to WIFI.
