firewall rule not starting at correct time

Thu Jun 01, 2006 2:46 am

Everytime i set a rule in my firewall to start working at a particular time it always starts working an hour after. please could some one help me and tell me why and what i can do to stop this. then my clients using yahoo messenger and other types of messenger get disconnected almost too often for no reason even the 1's that are not on bandwidth ristriction. this doesnt happen on the lan network of the base station so am sure it comes from the mikrotik. could someone please help me out and tell me how to fix that too. i dont mind post configurations just ask for the 1 you need

DST means daylight savings time.
If you have summer time, you may have to either adjust your DST settings, or simply change the timezone by 1

I also would like confirm that the problem occur only on dhcp clients (just like he said it doesn't happen on his lan). our statically set ip address nodes would not have this problem...
