Time Zone
The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to
get the current time from a SNTP server outside your network. Choose your local time zone, click Enable and click the
Apply button. After a successful connection to the Internet, the router will retrieve the correct local time from the SNTP
server you have specified. If you prefer to specify a SNTP server other than those in the list, simply enter its IP address
as shown above. Your ISP may provide a SNTP server for you to use.
Daylight Saving is also known as Summer Time Period. Many places in the world adapt it during summer time to
move one hour of daylight from morning to the evening in local standard time. Check Enable checkbox to set your local
time.
Resync Period (in minutes) is the periodic interval the router will wait before it re-synchronizes the router’s time with
that of the specified SNTP server. In order to avoid unnecessarily increasing the load on your specified SNTP server
you should keep the poll interval as high as possible – at the absolute minimum every few hours or even days.
