7-10 Troubleshooting
v1.1, October 2006
Problems with Date and Time
The E-mail menu in the Content Filtering section displays the current date and time of day. The
DG834 ADSL Modem Router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time
from one of several Network Time Servers on the Internet. Each entry in the log is stamped with
the date and time of day. Problems with the date and time function can include:
Date shown is January 1, 2000
Cause: The router has not yet successfully reached a Network Time Server. Check that your
Internet access settings are configured correctly. If you have just completed configuring the
router, wait at least five minutes and check the date and time again.
Time is off by one hour
Cause: The router does not automatically sense Daylight Savings Time. In the E-mail menu,
check or uncheck the box marked “Adjust for Daylight Savings Time”.
