For the past few years, my BCM50 has required a constant reset of the time. It would always slowly lag behind my network, which is constantly checking with time servers to make sure it is sending the right time out.
I thought I was properly pinging NTP with the BCM50, and was frustrated. However, it was not - but I've fixed it.
What I did was simple:
In element manager under the configuration Tab, I went to System-Date and Time.
The first thing I needed to change ws the Date and Time Source. I had been using "Trunk." The confusing thing was that even when set to "trunk" you are allowed to configure an NTP server address. Even though you are allowed to set these options, it does not appear to use them unless you select "NTP" as the Date and Time Source.
So, select that first. Then, make sure you have pool.ntp.org as the server, tell it to synch however often you desire, and you should be set.
