If you select the Weekly, Daily, or Hourly option and the log fills up before the specified period, the log is automatically e-mailed to the specified e-mail address. After the log is sent, the log is cleared from the router’s memory. If the router cannot e-mail the log file, the log buffer might fill up. In this case, the router overwrites the log and discards its contents.

So that the log entries are correctly time-stamped and sent at the correct time, be sure to set the time as described in the next section.

Setting the Time

The WNDR3400 router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time and date from one of several network time servers on the Internet. To localize the time for your log entries, you must specify your time zone:

•Time Zone. Select your local time zone. This setting is used for the blocking schedule and for time-stamping log entries.

•Automatically Adjust for Daylight Savings Time. Select this check box if your region supports daylight savings time. When this check box is set, the router will adjust the time by adding one hour during the daylight savings time period. When daylight savings time ends, be sure to un-check this check box.
