ProSAFE Single Band 802.11n Wireless Access Point WN203 Problems with Date and Time The Time screen that is accessible through the Configuration > System > Basic > Time menu choices displays the current date and time of day. The wireless access point uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from a network time server on the Internet that you specify in the Time screen (see Configure Basic General System Settings and Time Settings on page 20). Each entry on the Logs screen is stamped with the date and time of day. Problems with the date and time function can include the following: • Date and time shown is Thu Jan 1 08:00:41 CST 1970 or a similar incorrect date and time. Cause: The wireless access point has not yet successfully reached the network time server. Check that your Internet access settings are configured correctly. If you have just completed configuring the wireless access point, wait at least five minutes and check the date and time again. • The day is correct or one day ahead or behind, and the hours are ahead or behind. Cause: You have selected an incorrect time zone for your area. Specify the correct time zone on the Time screen (see Configure Basic General System Settings and Time Settings on page 20).
