telnet in as supervisor
sh #start busybox shell
date -s "2018-05-29 12:39"

how do you get the supervisor login details?

Maybe retrieve the time from another device. Is it possible to run a "time server" on another device and use that as the NTP server?

i'm sure that's possible.

This worked for me. I still have the correct time in my log, running in bridge mode.

Just tried this on my VMG1312-B10A and had success.

I did the following...
Resolve the NTP servers hostname.
e.g 0.uk.pool.ntp.org to 85.199.214.101
Under the time menu, select "other" for the NTP server and enter the resolved I.P from above.
Disable the firewall.
Add a static route like so:
Active: check
Name: NTP1
IPV4
Destination IP: Resolved IP from above
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.255
Use Gateway: Enable
Gateway: Your routers I.P (192.168.1.2)
Interface: Default/Bro

Indeed, as spring says, that would be one way out. If I had a local box up on my LAN itself acting as an NTP server then that would do the trick, as no gateway would be needed, it would be on-link.

It would be interesting to understand how to get that working with a one-cable set-up rather than the two-wire config as described here https://kitz.co.uk/routers/zyxel_VMG8324-B10A_bridge.htm

well luckily i have a windows 10 pro system on the network that has the w32time service.
i enabled it so that system can be an NTP server.
but even after telling the zyxel to use that IP it still doesn't update the date/time.

https://vicon-security.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/210734963-Setting-up-a-Windows-PC-as-a-NTP-server

edit - although on further testing, it looks like the NTP server service may not be operating correctly.

If memory serves that is more like an NTP client, it's a server for processes in the local machine only, no? I don't remember w32time re-publishing time services on the LAN. Sincere apologies if I'm wrong though, someone can look it up I’m sure.

the URL i posted suggests otherwise?
you have to physically enable this to make it an NTP server.

Don't listen to me, I'm incredibly rusty, haven't touched a Windows NT family box in years. :-)

it's Windows 10... don't think there's much NT stuff left now.

Then it's both the client and server, or at least the client.

Found this among many others: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3201265/windows-time-service-settings-are-not-preserved-during-an-in-place-upg

I'll try search more.


Edit: try this https://scriptkidding.blogspot.co.il/2017/03/time-server-cannot-be-queried-error.html

Edit2: Never mind, try turning off the firewall and NAT (broadband: untick "NAT Enable" and nat: alg -> "NAT ALG" to disabled) on your b10a and set the time server to pool.ntp.org on your Windows, and say results

Edit3: Never mind any of the above, I thought the log was from the router, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/816042/how-to-configure-an-authoritative-time-server-in-windows-server
try downloading both of their automatic solutions, but before that i'd also

net stop w32time

w32tm.exe /unregister

w32tm.exe /register

net start w32time
i dont really know what im doing but it doesn't cost right xD

Ok let me clarify as there seems to be a little confusion.
I enable the time server service on Windows 10.
Checked it's running and it is.

Tried to poll it from another system on the network and the result I got as what posted in the previous post.

What does it cost to try what I said?
Honestly, this reply shows just how important this "issue" is. I'm not going to enter this thread anymore.

PS. That's the Time service, both client and server, for using it as server it has to be set up with commands.

i enabled it so that system can be an NTP server.
This error simply means there's no server because you didn't set up one.


Also just 1 of them is what you should download, in "Configuring the Windows Time service to use an external time source" section. That's the only thing you should do before trying to sync time on the ZyXEL again.

Proof enabling the service isn't enough: https://www.interfacett.com/blogs/creating-standalone-ntp-server-windows/
