Linksys WRT54G - set date?

I can't find where to set the date and time on a Linksys WRT54G router.
The only time setting I found regards Daylight Savings Time. Right now,
the router thinks it's January.

My former router, a DLink 614+, had a place to set time and date.

Thanks for any help,


Alan

Any Linksys router I have used sync(s) itself to time and date servers
out there on the Internet by itself, depended upon what time zone you
are in at that time.

If it's not happening for you, then you should contact Linksys's tech
support.

ditto on the problem and your observation about DSL being only
selection to be made.

Does the router have a selection to enable NTP client. If so, enable it.

Silly question, but is your wap/router actually connected to a wan? I have
one I travel with, just to use as a wireless network, and didn't have it
connected to the internet (via wan input)...
If you have no internet connection, it can't get the time off an NTP
server...

Yes, I'm connected.

I logged on to the Linksys website yesterday night. There was a brand new
firmware update for my router (v. 5), so I downloaded and installed it.
The router now has the correct date.

Strangely, the firmware release notes list:

Adds support for WRT54G v.6

Wonder what that is?

I saw that. I guess it's the next model of the router?
