MR60 Daylight Savings Time Started too Early - Router Loses Connection Daily Until Time Synced Up
Problem: Router has been disconnecting/losing connectivity for about a week leading up to daylight savings time change aka DST. I remember incorrect time on my old routers was often the problem and...
Thanks FURRYe38
I've performed the update shortly after I noticed your firmware post. After your reply in this thread I've attempted to turn DST automatic setting off and apply the setting, note the time after setting is applied and router reboots, and back on [router reboots after applying the setting], then note the time - no difference in time/behaviour. By that I mean the DST automatic setting box is still not doing anything to change my current time - it simply stays the same.
It appears the router's firmware #1 sets DST ON automatically independent if its setting is off/on, and #2 it simply miscalculates when it should've started [it started one week too early], which means it's correct for now [in sync with actual time for my timezone].
It was worth a try, and I thank you for your active support on the forums.
My new MR60 firmware is: v1.1.6.122
Might have to wait to see what happens next year when DST triggers again.
