in our special openwrt-build we have a function like time_seems_correct() which simply return 1 if the time is older or much newer than the builddate of the firmware-image. (during build we write the unixtimestamp to /etc/buildtime, but it is also possible to use 'uname -a') thanks for pointing at this problem. something interesting: i have seen many routers, which have a date of year 2027 or 2021 after booting... bye, Bastian... _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
