Setting the Time and Time Zone
The Modem Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network
Time Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Modem Router to
synchronize the system clock to the global Internet. The synchronized
clock in the Modem Router is used to record the security log and
control client filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. You
have the option to select a primary and a backup NTP server to keep
your Modem Router’s clock synchronized. Select your desired NPT
server from the drop-down box, or simply keep it as is.
If you reside in an area that observes daylight saving, then place a
check mark in the box next to “Enable Daylight Saving”. The system
clock may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the
Modem Router to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a
response. You cannot set the clock yourself.
Enabling Remote Management
Before you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin Modem Router,
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD.
Remote management allows you to make changes to your Modem
Router’s settings from anywhere on the Internet. There are two
methods of remotely managing the Modem Router. The first is to
allow access to the Modem Router from anywhere on the Internet by
selecting “Any IP address can remotely manage the Modem Router”.
By typing in your WAN IP address from any computer on the Internet,
you will be presented with a login screen where you need to type in
the password of your Modem Router.
