If this is the first time setting up the router, you will need to set the router’s internal clock.
• Get Date and Time by NTP Protocol. Use the time provided by specified network time
protocol (NTP) server. If enabled, then the router’s real-time clock (time) will be set by the
specified time server (typically, once a week). If your router is not continuously connected
to the Internet, click Sync Now! Choose your local time zone from the drop-down menu.
Tip: If your computer is a member of a Microsoft domain network, your clock is probably
synchronized by a network time server. Some reasons why NTP may not work in your
environment: no Internet connection, router’s firewall has blocked the NTP signal, time
server too busy. Your date must be correct or NTP will not sync the time.
• Set Date and Time using PC’s Date and Time. Use the time and date from your
computer.
• Set Date and Time manually. Set the date using the drop-down dialog boxes and enter
the correct time.
• Daylight Saving. Since this varies by country and region, set the starting and ending
dates per local rules. See this site for information on local rules:
http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/g.html . In North America, daylight savings starts the
first Sunday of April and ends the last Sunday of October.
