Connected, no internet

Once setting that to the correct date all issues resolved.

By default the NAS uses NTP to get current time over the internet. Did you change that setting when you set it up?
- JacobnzJun 19, 2019GuideNo, I have never even noticed those details. It could be from the os re install I did a few days ago in an attempt to get router access.

Click on the settings wheel next to "device time" in the web ui (system->overview).
Confirm that the time zone is correctly set for your location, and also confirm that "synchronize clock with an internet server" is checked.
If you aren't syncing with an internet time server, the time will gradually drift (though not by three years :smileyfrustrated: )
