When I do a status update on Dynamic DNS I get this:
something.mynetgear.com updated successfully at 08:00 AM, 01/01/1970
Not sure what clowns are working at Netgear but this is a problem I dealt with 20 years ago when I studied computer science. You'd think by now people programming hardware would know how to probably pull a date from the system without using the default date when the first computer was created?
Amateurs at best but probable less than that!

I am pretty sure your router hasn't grabbed the Date/Time from the Netgear NTP server. I have had that problem numerous times. I have even had to Telnet into the router and set the date/time myself as I use the Block Services per Schedule. Under Schedule you will see the current Date/Time of the router. I wish Netgear would allow us to change the NTP server.
