The login time-out option allows you to set the period of time that you
can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface. The timer
starts when there has been no activity. For example, imagine you have
made some changes in the advanced setup interface, then left your
computer alone without clicking “Logout”. Assuming the time-out is set

You will have to log into the Router again to make any more changes.
The login time-out option is for security purposes and the default is
set to 10 minutes. Note: Only one computer can be logged into the
Router’s advanced setup interface at one time.

The Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time
Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Router to synchronize the

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 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
Router to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response.
You cannot set the clock yourself.
