Traffic Meter 0.00 after Daylight Savings Time

Have the R7800 with firmware V1.0.2.62.

After the recent daylight savings time change here in San Francisco bay area, USA, the traffic meter is showing all zeros. And I can't find any screen where I can disable daylight time from previous suggestions as a work around for the daylight savings bug.

Any ideas anyone?

    Thanks for the tip on the Advanced -> Administration -> NTP Settings. Disabled the daylight and manually adjusted to -7 GMT to reflect the right time difference and it works again.

       Have you restarted (power-cycled) the router since the change?

  • I see the same issue on R9000. I vaguely remember Netgear fixing this issue last year. Seems like a regression.

      You can disable DST in Advanced -> Administration -> NTP Settings

        Yep, aware of that. The point here is that this is just bad software, especially if it's a regression. I hope they fix it, the right way.
