Time server

[Rturnock]

I tried some searches and couldn't find an answer... can I make my Merlin powered router an NTP server. I have endless trouble getting time synchronized. I've even gone to the point of buying a serial based GPS but... well that's another conversation. It seems that my router gets and keeps time well but won't serve it to internal computers - can it be done?

The thread pointed to by sdajkdcbhzb provides a fully functional NTP Daemon optimised for small devices like your router.

The stock NTP shipped in Asuswrt/Merlin does every little. It syncs the time on startup, and re-syncs twice everyday. That's it. And yet it uses more RAM than a real NTP Daemon as provided in the above thread.
