Dear Members,

I was using my IRC CHAT server installed in my LOCALNODE WRT54... and I noticed that the time was way off ... years even... How can I update the time on mine and others on the BBHN?... Has anybody tackled this?...

Any ideas appreciated...

Any node that is connected to the Internet on its wan port will update it's time automatically using NTP.

In addition if a mesh gateway is available the node will automatically use that node and update it's time as well though care should be used as meshgw opens the network up to all traffic and may be hard to control.

To KG6JEI Our BBHN is off the Internet so is there a way to simulate a Time Gateway for the BBHN system where a node on the network would appear as a time server and keep the rest of the system time set? It would be nice to see all the times for the BBHN here all say the same time. Just Dreaming! Thanks for the answer... 73 Dave WA5DJJ

At the moment there is no other method for making all nodes receive the time.

You could go into individual nodes and configure them to use a local NTP Server instead of the pool server, this is discussed in other threads on the forum.
