EAP670 DST Daylight saving time log email off by an hour
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Using device without controller.
Under management/system log, device configured to send daily emails at time 08:00 daily. After DST took effect, these emails are arriving an hour late, at 09:00.
Under system/time settings, DST is enabled using "predefined mode" for Country USA.
It would appear what ever service device is using for its scheduler isn't respecting DST.
How to fix?

@das1996 What if you tried to turn off daylight saving time? Do you synchronize the time with PC on the Web GUI? Please also try to use a different NTP server. Lastly, I'd like to remind you that you should update your firmware to the latest.
Here is the link to download the firmware:https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/eap670/v1/#Firmware

@Hank21 If I turn off DST then the time falls back an hour. I imagine it would send the email at the specified time, not an hour later. I'd say the scheduler isn't respecting DST.
Ntp server is not an issue, server in use is the firewall lan ip. Firewall gets time, then all DNAT rule redirects all outbound ntp requests back to the firewall. All other devices on the network are indicating correct time.
If I synchronize with pc, eap complains I have Dst enabled on pc and to enable it on eap.
I will update fw to .14. Will be surprised if it fixes this as release notes make no mention of time issue fixes.

@Hank21 Firmware updated but time at which log email sent is still wrong. Sure I can change the send time to be off by an hour, but shouldn't all functions on the eap by in sync in terms of time and time zones.....?
