Mikrotik not holding TIME!!!

Wow. I’ve seen this issue since day one with mikrotik and the problem never gets fixed. I set the clock, and it hold the time until its rebooted, then resets to like Jan 1970 -a time before people even had computers let alone mikrotiks! Whats up with this??? Is there ANY fix yet for something so simple? Thanks for any advise.

Have you heard of an ntp time server?

system ntp client set enabled=yes
system ntp client set mode=unicast
system ntp client set primary-ntp=x.x.x.x

x.x.x.x = the IP address of a public time server.

Find one with google.com

Battery backed up clocks are now obsolete. Use ntp.
