I am and was using my internet company email smtp stuff and it was working great.
When using Gmail, are you using the specially generated password for third party applications?
You are sure you have the outgoing mail server port number correct as well as the mail server authentication option set.
In your router log, it should show something similar to [email sent to: xxxxxx@gmail.com] Friday, November 18, 2022 05:00:04

in the log it says email sent... to the address I set (most of the time sometimes there is nothing about me sending the log)..
but nothing is recieved. I have even added a 2nd address for testing and nothing is recieved.
my smtp is not Gmail so using normal pw. I have double triple checked the smtp address and port numbers and verified the password.

Are you using firmware version 1.4.4.94?
After the most recent firmware update, did you do a firmware default reset and reconfigure the router from scratch?
After you make changes to the configuration, do you power down (pull the power cord) and then reboot the router?
What brand name and model number is the modem/ONT in front of your router?
If it is a combination device with a router, has it been configured in bridge mode?
Are you using a web browser Ethernet connected to the router or the Nighthawk application to make the configuration changes?
