Should I correct the date/time on my router?

I just bought a new router. I am troubleshooting an intermittent problem with WiFi disconnects. I noticed under the Advanced/Administration/Log section, the date is correct but the time is incorrect ...

    If you have not made any settings that depend on knowing the time, then there is no urgency to make the time exact.

     

    However, changing the time will not cause any problem and I prefer to have the time be correct.
