Send to this e-mail address
Enter the e-mail address to which logs and alerts are sent. This e-mail address will also be used
as the From address. If you leave this box blank, log and alert messages will not be sent via
e-mail.
You can specify that logs are automatically sent to the specified e-mail address with these options:
•
Send alert immediately
Check this box if you would like immediate notification of attempted access to a blocked site.
•
Send logs according to this schedule

–
Day for sending log. Specifies which day of the week to send the log. Relevant when the
log is sent weekly or daily.
–
Time for sending log. Specifies the time of day to send the log. Relevant when the log is
sent daily or weekly.
If the Weekly, Daily or Hourly option is selected and the log fills up before the specified
period, the log is automatically e-mailed to the specified e-mail address. After the log is sent,
the log is cleared from the router’s memory. If the router cannot e-mail the log file, the log
buffer may fill up. In this case, the router overwrites the log and discards its contents. If you
don't want logs sent, select None from the list in the Send Logs According To This Schedule
area. When you turn on e-mail notification and choose None in the Send Logs According to
this Schedule list, the alert is sent but not the log.
The WGT624 v2 wireless router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time
and date from one of several Network Time Servers on the Internet. In order to localize the time
for your log entries, you must specify your Time Zone:
•
Time Zone. Select your local time zone. This setting will be used for the blocking schedule
and for time-stamping log entries.
•
Daylight Savings Time. Check this box if your time zone is currently under daylight savings
time.
Note
:
If your region uses Daylight Savings Time, you must manually select Adjust for
Daylight Savings Time on the first day of Daylight Savings Time, and unselect it at the
end. Enabling Daylight Savings Time will cause one hour to be added to the standard time.
