I installed a new 75790 Camera on my home network in December,. Everything went fine up to a point. I can view (and pan and tilt) my camera (in KS) from (FL) using my iphone with Insteon Hub Software. I followed the instructions and set port forwarding for the camera on my home network--all was good.
Then I tried to set the camera to email me motion alerts. No matter how many different scenario's I've tried or email addresses I've tried nothing works. Regarding GMail, I have used the examples in the Insteon 75790 manual-they don't work. I have MS 2007 Outlook on my home computer. I used my outlook settings (SMPT Port and Security Settings) and they do not work when configured into the camera. I have tried my web based outlook email account and my web based icloud mail account. My suspicion is the problem may be associated with port forwarding or my Insteon Hub.. Below is an overview of my LAN.
ISP = Google Fiber 1 GB Lan Speed
Cisco Gigabit 5 port Switches
Insteon 2245-222 Hub Connected to the Cisco Switch
The 75790 camera is currently configured using DHCP on my WiFi network (Also google router and switch). WiFi in the home is very solid and fast.
I must be missing something but just can't get my head wrapped around it. FYI: I have an Amcrest Wifi camera on the the same LAN using port forwarding and it sends alerts to my gmail address with no problems.
Suggestions appreciated.
