RAX200 Date/Time is off
I have the oddest issue. Anyone else ever see this or have any ideas?
My RAX200 router is more than a week behind. 1 week . 50 minutes, and some change to be roughly accurate.
By default, it had NTP set automatically, and to Netgear default NTP server. I have switched around the settings to no avail. (btw, no place to manually set the date and time). I am also set to "Central Time Zone"...which is in essence where the issue lies. I do not recall that issue on my last Router, R8000.
I have set to disabled it, re-enabled it, and changed NTP to preferred "us.pool.ntp.org". When I change the timezeon to "Eastern" time....it corrects itself and updates fine....to current date and time (1 hour ahead).
BUT, when I set it back to Central Time, it sets itself back to the 1 week , ~50 minutes behind.
I'll leave it at Eastern for now. The log entries were obviously off and that is what brought it to my attention.
Any fixes or ideas what could be the issue?

Re-apply (install) the firmware image again and check again.
