Settings > System
integrated approach to setting system time. Using NTP as an option requires Internet access. If you do not
wish to use this service, deselect the checkbox and see Manual settings, below.
Set your time zone. North American time zones range from Hawaii (GMT-10:00) in the west to Newfoundland
(GMT-03:30) in the east.
Change your NTP server if desired.
Manual: With manual sync, your router uses its internal clock. We do not recommend this setting because
any electronic system’s internal clock can drift. However, this choice is your only option if your network is
not connected to the Internet.
Set your desired time. As soon as you click apply, the new time settings are applied.
DST: By default, Daylight Saving Time is enabled. It works with both NTP and manual time settings. The
Start Time and End Time boxes set the month, week, day, and hour (in 24-hour time) that daylight saving
time starts and ends.
Note – You are not setting the exact day and date with this tool. Instead, you are selecting (for
example) the second Sunday in March.
If your location does not observe daylight saving time, deselect the checkbox. Places that do not observe
daylight saving time include Arizona (outside of Navajo territory), Hawaii, Saskatchewan, and a number of
local exceptions across Canada. For Arizona and Hawaii, disable DST. For Saskatchewan, disable DST and
set your system to Central Time. For other exceptions, check local regulations.
Auto-Reboot Section
For best network performance, set your router to reboot on a regular basis (preferably when no one is
likely to be using it). When enabled, select either weekly or monthly, then select the day(s) of the week, or
the day of the month, as appropriate. Finally, choose the time of day.
For best performance with multiple auto-rebooting devices, reboot the network devices in this order:
modem, router, switch, access points.
