126 CHAPTER 5: CONFIGURING THE ROUTER Time Zone You can set the time settings for the Router on this screen. Figure 104 Time Zone Screen The Router keeps time by connecting to a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. This allows the Router to synchronize the system clock to the Internet. The synchronized clock in the Router is used to record the security log and control client filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. If you reside in an area that observes Daylight Saving, then check the Enable Daylight Savings box. The system clock may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the Router to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself. You can specify which NTP servers the Router will use to update the system clock, although doing this should only be necessary if you are experiencing difficulty.
