What's new

Timezone "(GMT+00:00) Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London" links to Dublin only

I'm just noticed that when asking the router for the date it is saying 'IST' (Irish Standard Time) as the timezone, rather than 'BST' (British Summer Time).

The reason is this;
Code:
lrwxrwxrwx    1 admin    root            37 Jul  5 10:39 /etc/localtime -> /rom/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Dublin

In the dropdown in the GUI there is a single option covering the 4 cities in the subject, however it only ever links to Dublin, meaning those in London/Lisbon are presented with the wrong timezone abbreviation (albeit with correct actual time).

The issue appears to be here;

The fix I guess is to add options for London/Edinburgh (as these are truly the same), Lisbon and Dublin separately.

For now I have added this line to /jffs/services-start
Code:
ln -sf /rom/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/London /etc/localtime
