Sounds that you're all choosing the incorrect router...

If you're a home user, and with Linksys router I believe that you're, try out SMC... -:) Forget that Linksys is Cisco based - LOL
Otherwise ask Paul's $100K Router Vendor :)

I hope that the information above helps you.
Have a Nice day.

Anyway, most, if not, ALL of them have cheap routers that provide this functionally without additional cost.

I have a cheap router sitting by my left hand as I type this, and I'm here to tell you that it doesn't contain an NTP server. There's very little to be gained by adding an extra stratum solely for the sake of dividing up the hops for the UDP/IP traffic, you know. And you're missing the point that what you are talking about is merely yet another form of external time server, not qualitatively different from any other as far as the Windows Time Service is concerned.


If have a router of that sort as well. Not only does it lack an NTP client it also lacks a clock! (Linksys BEFR81)

Expecting "Joe Sixpack" to configure NTP on a cheap router is just asking for trouble! Trouble of the "University of Wisconsin" sort. Or PHK vs. Dlink.
