Orbi Parental Controls Bedtime schedule shifted when traveling

This is a good one. I have a bedtime schedule configured for both of my kids using the Orbi app Parental Controls configuration. I'm using a RBR50 mesh system.

 

I traveled overseas last month to a timezone 8 hours ahead ... just me, not the kids. They stayed back in my home timezone, along with the RBR50 mesh network. After I landed in the 8+ timezone, their bedtime schedule shifted 8 hours earlier in the day and they were unable to use their devices 8 hours earlier!!!

 

And, not only that, it remained that way after I returned from my trip to my home timezone. I ended up disabling the schedule and have not re-enabled it since.

 

It probably goes without saying but the Orbi app I use to control the Orbi network, including the kids bedtime schedule, is on my phone which did travel with me to the 8+ hour timezone.

 

My question is, this cannot be by-design, correct? And assuming the answer to the first question is 'no', how do I get it to re-home to the correct timezone?
