C6300 Time Zone setting not available

I have a C6300 – AC1750 WiFi Cable Modem Router (Firmware Version

V3.01.12) - appears to be most currrent version as of 5/20/2020.

I have been trying to set a Schedule and Block Serviecs under the Security tab in the router's Genie interface.  Within the Owner's manual it shows the ablilty to set for daylight savings time, but the interface does not provide the option.  I have tried to cheat the time by one hour but the schedule either will not run, or the Block Services just blocks all traffic ... it's all or nothing.

Is there a fix for the non-existent Time Zone setting?

  • The subject should actually be Daylight Savings Time setting not available (another reason we should do away with the arcane ritual).

      I have this same problem, super frustrated since my thermostat uses the router's time zone for all my scheduled temperature settings. I can't find any way on the Netgear C3600 to change the existing time zone...

        Hi RB21231 and Megankgomez,


        Good day!

         

        Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

         

        First of all, we do apologize for the inconvenience of not getting back to you immediately due to the back log in the system. Regarding your concern, the time is updated by the ISP and cannot be changed manually. The issue is the system does not use daylight savings so they do not have issues when they look at logs on their system.

         

        Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance. 

         

        Regards,
        Oliver
