Just set up netgear.com on our cache DNSes. Thankfully that is not a signed zone :-) I see the client's request for time-g.netgear.com is now being replied with 157.161.1.4 (our NTP server), but those clients still are not happy and keep sending up to hundreds of request/s. So I fear also sending them an ntp-server dhcp option would not solve the issue. netgear tech support has confirmed there is a problem in one of the models and released a fixed firmware. Great! How do I tell the customers?
