R7000 Time and date is wrong

My new R7000 is showing wrong time and date, and I cant change it.

I have tried reset to default, turned it off for some time, upgraded the FW, but nothing helps.

It starts showing the time and date from 2003 1 Jan 00:00:00.

Firmware Version
V1.0.4.30_1.1.67

    You know what, I got it to work!!

    Instead of letting R7000 getting the primary and secondary DNS from the ISP automaticly, I set them manually, and wips it did work!

    The router needs a internet connection to update the date and time. Can you surf web with it? Try a reboot from the advanced home menu. Try rebooting modem then router.

      I have internet connection, everything works fine, except for the date and time.

      Tryed reboot from advance home menu and modem, but its the same, it starts date and time counting from 2003 1 jan 00:00.00.
