Incorrect times and dates are displayed in the call list

The times and dates displayed in the call list of the FRITZ!Box are incorrect. The telephone calls were not conducted on the days or at the times that are given in the call list.

Note:All instructions on configuration and settings given in this guide refer to the latest FRITZ!OS for the FRITZ!Box.

Simply proceed as described below. After each measure, check whether the problem is solved.

1 Restarting the FRITZ!Box

  1. Click "System" in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
  2. Click "Backup" in the "System" menu.
  3. Click on the "Restart" tab.
  4. Click the "Restart" button.

2 Setting the country of use

  1. Click "System" in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
  2. Click "Region and Language" in the "System" menu.
  3. Click on the "Regional Options" tab.
  4. Select your country from the drop-down list. If your country is not displayed, select "Other country".

    Important:When the regional options are changed, the telephone settings (for example telephony devices, call diversion settings, dialing rules) are reset and must be reconfigured.

  5. Click "Apply" to save the settings.

3 Setting the time zone

The FRITZ!Box automatically sets the time zone based on the country of use that is configured. If you selected "Other country" as your country or are using the FRITZ!Box in a country with several time zones (for example Australia, Russia, USA), configure the time zone manually:

  1. Click "System" in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
  2. Click "Region and Language" in the "System" menu.
  3. Click on the "Time Zone" tab.
  4. Enable the "Set the time zone manually" option.
  5. From the drop-down list, select the difference between your time zone and GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) in hours.

    Example:
    You are using your FRITZ!Box in Greece. Select "GMT +1 hour" from the drop-down list to manually set your time zone in the FRITZ!Box.

  6. If you are using the FRITZ!Box in a region with daylight savings time, enable the option "adjust to daylight savings time automatically" during daylight saving time. When standard time begins, you must disable the option again.
  7. Click "Apply" to save the settings.

4 Setting up the time server

The FRITZ!Box is already configured for use as a time server in the factory settings. If you adjusted the FRITZ!Box's settings, re-enter a valid time server:

Important:If you are using the FRITZ!Box with an internet connection from NetCologne, enter ntp.netcologne.de as the time server since NetCologne only allows time synchronization via this time server.

  1. Click "Home Network" in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
  2. Click "Network" in the "Home Network" menu.
  3. Click on the "Network Settings" tab.
  4. Click "Additional Settings" in the section "Guest Access" to display all of the settings.
  5. In the "Time Synchronization" section, enter the NTP time server on the internet that the FRITZ!Box should synchronize its time with.

    Note:Normally it is not necessary to change the preconfigured NTP time server 2.europe.pool.ntp.org. Alternative NTP time servers can be found here.

  6. Enable the option "Make FRITZ!Box available as a time server in the home network".
  7. Click "Apply" to save the settings.
