Router time (SNTP)

[wildheart]

Hi all just wondered if someone can help me out with a question thats bugging me.

I have a USR router that i recently purchased, problem is that im trying to setup the internet access control. So a certain MAC computer on the network cannot access the internet at a certain time. Thing is it does not work unless i set the restriction from 0:00 to 23:59 (i.e all day)

I think it has something to do with the router not knowing what the actual time is as in the system log it currently things its: Jan 2 04:06:20

SO... i have set it to "Automatically synchronize with Internet time servers" and selected:

ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk
ntp.cs.tcd.ie
(UTC)Universal Coordinal Time: Dublin, london, lisbon
-- there is no GMT option?? these time servers i got from MS site??

But its still not getting the time right? Any ideas?

note: at the time of writting this i have changed the UTC to UTC+1 and back again and now it has the correct time and date! hope i dont have to do this every time the router is reset

very strange system log shows each time i change it its not getting the right time:

Feb 20 17:09:55 kern debug syslog: sntp -s ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk -s ntp.cs.tcd.ie -t "Casablanca, Monrovia" &

Feb 20 19:10:29 kern debug syslog: sntp -s ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk -s ntp.cs.tcd.ie -t "Cairo" &

Feb 20 21:10:38 kern debug syslog: sntp -s ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk -s ntp.cs.tcd.ie -t "Universal Coordinated Time: Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London" &

Feb 20 21:11:42 kern debug syslog: sntp -s ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk -s ntp.cs.tcd.ie -t "Cairo" &

Feb 20 21:13:06 kern debug syslog: sntp -s ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk -s ntp.cs.tcd.ie -t "Azores" &

Maybe i need a different time server

for some reason to get the right time i have to set it to mid atlantic which is UTC-2

Feb 20 19:22:25 kern debug syslog: sntp -s ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk -s clock.nyc.he.net -t "Mid-Atlantic" &

I use time.nist.gov on my DLink, works fine everytime.
