Orbi Traffic Meter stopped working
In the last several days the Traffic Meter on my Netgear Orbi system mysteriously stopped working. All entries reverted to zero even though I have traffic flowing every day. I googled the issue a...
Maybe I'm missing something but there seems to be a simple work-around for this.
Turn off DST and then select a time zone that gives you the correct time. That will provide traffic and the correct time. Come November when the time changes back, you can just adjust your time zone back to the correct zone for your location.
Are you using Netgear's NTP server, or another NTP server? I am using pool.ntp.org for NTP and DST remains disabled for me, allowing Traffic Meter to also work.

Even just changing the DST option only lasts a few minutes before Netgear rechecks the box for me. Hitting apply and refreshing the screen shows the DST box unchecked -- just only lasts a few minutes.
I'm using Netgear's NTP server. I'll switch and let you know how that works.
Thanks for the tip.
Changing NTP server didn't work for me. Traffic meter worked for about 5 minutes then stopped working. Checking NTP settings showed Netgear has changed my time zone back to central and also checked the DST option for me. It left my NTP server I added, but changed both the DST and time zone. Thanks Netgear!
