Problems With Date And Time; Restoring The Default Configuration And Password - NETGEAR MBR1210 User Manual

Problems with Date and Time

The email screen displays the current date and time of day. The Mobile Broadband 11n
Wireless Router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from one of
several network time servers on the Internet. Each entry in the log is stamped with the date
and time of day. Problems with the date and time function can include the following:
Date shown is January 1, 2000.
•
Cause: The router has not yet successfully reached a network time server. Check that
your Internet access settings are configured correctly. If you have just completed

Time is off by one hour.
•
Cause: The router does not automatically sense daylight savings time. On the E-mail
screen, select or clear the Adjust for Daylight Savings Time check box.
