Netgear Nighthawk XC 8000 Schedule
I have been running the block schedule for some time and it works nicely. I've allocated ip addresses and block them at a point when the kids should go to bed with the schedule. It stopped working recently and after much messing around I noticed it was working but an hour out. If I block at 19:00 it blocks at 20:00.
We are in BST which is 1 hour ahead off GMT, but its been like this all summer and it has been working fine.
I checked the time on the router and its correct. Its also shows the time zone GMT and the selected box "Automatic addjust for daylight saving time".
Perhaps its a bug in a recent firmare upgrade, although it didn't happen at the time of upgrade.
Firmware: V1.0.4.76_10.1.82

Can you confirm this? "XC 8000" XC isnt' a valid model#. R8000 maybe?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last?
- gjfconsultAspirantYes. You are correct x6 r8000 is the model.
No, I've not done a factory reset. It seems rather xtreme.- FURRYe38Guru - Experienced User
Something to try.
If this just started after a FW update, you may need to revert back to what had worked.
