Title: 1.06 Firmware - Still Date/Time issues for me.
Post by: jesbo09 on April 10, 2009, 09:49:38 AM

Aftrer updating to 1.06, I expected Date/Time to behave better.It doesn't.

My settings for Tools-->Time:

Time Configuration:
(GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)
Enable DST is checked
Daylight Savings Time is set to "USA"

NTP Server:
Enable NTP Server is checked
NTP Server is set to us.pool.ntp.org

If I save the settings, the Current Time / Time Zone are correctly updated and shown at the top of the page.  However, if I return to the Tools-->Time web page the following day, the time shown is off by 1 hour (behind).

Anyone seeing this behavior?

every NTP server i put in returns "unable to contact this NTP server", i can ping the server fine.  so im not sure what its problem is.  I tried a canadian server time.nrc.ca.

also the daylight savings settings provide incorrect values for me as wel..

dunno man

The DST table is not up to date on the 323.  NTP is correctly reporting the time, however the 323 is not adding +1:00 for DST right now.  By the 1st weekend in May (or whatever the old DST date was), the time will be accurate.

IIRC, D-Link is aware of the issue.. if not..

ECF - Could you make sure this is being update for 1.07?

I have done my own fun_plug workaround... I disable the built-in daylight and rtc processes and add the "ntpdate" command to my crontab. It runs every 6 hours to keep the clock updated.  I update using us.pool.ntp.org and so far it seems to be working fine.  I include logging in my ntpdate, so I see the clock adjustment logged every 6 hours.

 I was doing this under firmware 1.05 but had hoped 1.06 had fixed all the time issues.  Unfortunately not.
