R8000 - 1.0.4.66 - NTP Settings Issue

Greetings,

 

I recently upgraded my R8000 to 1.0.4.66 firmware, which supposedly has upgrades to the time zone system (From the Change Log: "Time zone detection/Time sync enhancement"). However, the NTP Settings page does not seem to display the correct information.

 

For background: I use a custom NTP server (time.google.com) and my time zone is set for Arizona - "(GMT-07:00) Arizona, Chihuahua, La Paz, Mazatlan". Further, the "Automatically adjust for daylight savings time" is unchecked (Arizona does not participate in Daylight Saving Time and we never adjust our clocks). It displays the correct date and time, however, the custom NTP server settings are not displayed and the time zone is incorrect (see attached screenshot). Changing the values does not resolve the issue. This doesn't seem to impact performance, but I wanted to pass it on as a bug in the new firmware.

  • I just updated my R8000 today to V1.0.4.66_10.1.75, and I'm seeing the exact same issue. With developer tools open on Chrome (F12), I can see that the javascript on the page has a whole host of issues, such as a lot of missing semicolons.

  • Hi 

    I have a similar problem with that firmware and the latest version in that I can set the NTP server or set day light savings time and set the time zone to the uk. Did anyone have this problem resolved?

  • Hello. I have the same issue on my Nighthawk R8300 after updating firmware to V1.0.2.154 . My NTP settings doesn't work at all and I cannot change the date/time in any way.
