Traffic Meter 0.00 after Daylight Savings Time

[bparas]

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.

Yeah I restarted it and didn't fix it

Don't expect a fix from Netgear.  I personally reported this bug to Netgear over a year ago (have a case number and everything), and it is still not fixed.  Netgear support is SOOOOOO bad.

Noticed there was a firmware update today for R9000 (1.0.4.28) and this issue still not fixed! Ugh.
