use the time server in your broadband network.

Protocol to use a public Internet time server to set
the clock in the gateway.

time update

when Daylight Saving Time is in effect. Check the
Enable box to enable or disable this setting.

Add and delete time server URLs or IP addresses
to and from the list, as required. When using

the listed time servers until it acquires the current
time. There are three well known public time
servers entered as default servers.
