Set the Network Time Protocol in DD-WRT

NTP Client (Network Time Protocol) is a software client that allows your router to sync it's time from a time server. If you haven't already set this up for your router, you might want to look into setting it up -especially if you're "Access Restrictons" and the "Traffic by Month" are enabled. If your router isn't synchronized with the right time, you may encounter some major problems with some services that the router has that uses dates and time to determine it's output.

Setting up the NTP client is easy if you know your time servers. To configure the NTP client, navigate to your web GUI (http://192.168.1.1) > Setup > Basic Settings and scroll down to the NTP Time Section.

1. Select "Enable" for NTP Client.
2. Choose your Time Zone for your location.
3. Set the Summer Time (DST) accordingly (See Time Zone settings below)
4. Enter the domain name or IP address of the Time Server.
