VMG3925-B10C Can't connect to local NTP on a PC!
I'm using a VMG3925-B10C as a switch and have it 90% set up successfully, ie devices will connect to the internet from it.
I wanted to use a USB drive from it, and again, largely set up ok however, files are not getting dated! This is presumably because the 'router/switch' is not itself connected to the internet?
I have set up a PC as a NTP server and put that PC's IP address as the Time Server, but the 'router/switch' is not picking up the time from the PC.
- I can successfully Ping the PC in diagnostics.
- I have enabled Ports 123 for inbound/outbound in the Firewalls of both the PC and the 'router/switch'.
- I get the correct time from the PC running "w32tm /stripchart /computer:xxx.xxx.x.xxx /dataonly /samples:5" (though I only get it on the first sample, the others show errors.)
Does anyone have any ideas what else I can try to get the correct time set on the 'router/switch'? Is xxx.xxx.x.xxx all I should need to enter in the Time Server settings?
Grateful for any suggestions.

No, I had those set up originally. When I log on to the router, I get "A problem occurred:The VMG3925-B10C cannot connect to Internet. Please check WAN settings or contact your ISP.", which I assumed was because I was using it as a 'switch'. (Internet from main router going into one of the four LAN ports)

Unfortunately, there's no option for that! :-(

Hi @Hummel Sorry for delay getting back to you. I appreciate you trying to help but I think I'm now getting out of my depth and maybe had better give up!
I did do some reading and it talked about going into 'Turn Windows Features on or off' and enabling Telnet Client and Telnet Server.....I only seem to have Telnet Client! Anyway, I did try a telnet command and I'm getting 'Could not open connection to the host, on port xxx: Connect failed
I guess I can live with things! I can access files on the USB drive attached to the router (switch) it just means that in File Explorer no date shows for the file and if I go into properties, it shows a date back in the 1970's! (Date that the router is set at)
Thanks again for trying to help,
Salamat
