Firewall Parental Controls

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hello,

I seem to be having an issue getting the correct time to work under the reject action. Ever since day light saving time happened last weekend I have to add an hour to the start and end times to reject and open access. I have the stock NTP servers enabled and time (pacific time) is showing correct on the Overview page, but all custom firewall rules I have to add +1 to the hour start/end times. Is this normal or is there something I'm missing?

I'm running 18.06.1 on WRT1900ACS and have followed the entire guide located here: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/firewall/fw3_configurations/fw3_parent_controls

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

By any chance...have you rebooted yet, since PST came into effect on Sunday morning?

Yeah, I've rebooted a couple times since daylight saving time went into effect.

If your problem persists, I'd suggest using UTC. This will not affect your ability to get PST time on your clients.

I'm having this same issue. After recent switch from Daylight to Standard time, firewall rules are off by one hour.
