Yes, what Nate said.
Check what NTP server the ATA is using, and that it is reachable (especially if the ATA does not have a globally routable IP address), and that the NTP server has the correct time.

So a customer may manually set the time on a phone, and then when the first call comes in, it resets the time. I usually track time issues down to an incorrect time setting in the ATA.

We recently have moved a couple customers off of Frontier to dialtone derived from our ONTs that are having problems. The only problem is that the time displayed on their phone is now no longer correct. They set the time and it stays for a bit, but then resets to something not correct. I guess when they were on Frontier, it worked correctly all of the time. Would Frontier have had some kind of service setup on their POTS lines that provided time? I've never heard of such a thing. I would think it was just a failing phone system, but to have multiple customers converted in a month all have the same problem? Seems fishy. I'm assuming it's some kind of key system, but I don't know what as I haven't seen it. ----- Mike Hammett <http://www.ics-il.com/> Intelligent Computing Solutions <https://www.facebook.com/ICSIL> <https://plus.google.com/+IntelligentComputingSolutionsDeKalb> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/intelligent-computing-solutions> <https://twitter.com/ICSIL> <http://www.midwest-ix.com/> Midwest Internet Exchange <https://www.facebook.com/mdwestix> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/midwest-internet-exchange> <https://twitter.com/mdwestix> <http://www.thebrotherswisp.com/> The Brothers WISP <https://www.facebook.com/thebrotherswisp> <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXSdfxQv7SpoRQYNyLwntZg>
