Nighthawk AC1750 R6400

RFC 5905 governs NTP (time server), which means you must always use UDP port 123. Try that... I don't see why Netgear would use a non-standard port.

I went into the ISP's modem/router, set it to trigger on UDP port 123 and it works.. well... at least it works on my computer now. My PC wouldn't update its time unless I dropped the firewall, now it updates with the firewall up.. Going to assume the Netgear router will do the same.
Thank you,
