Hi there, Does anyone have an example of how to set the Netduino dateTime from the internet using wifi for a connection? Thanks, Donovan

I've used the NTP class from CodingSmackdown's Brewery Monitor. Works pretty well. I'm actually using it to occasionally check and update my Real Time Clock DS1307 so when I'm not plugged into the internet, I still have accurate time available.

Thanks Dave, Taking a look now. Very nicely ordered code... just trying to extract the NTP class now.

I can't figure it out... too much going on for my limited noob abilities. Just going to get a RTC module on Monday. Netduino Plus 3 to have an RTC onboard?

I'm Actually Surprised none of them have RTC on board. Its so cheap to add on.

I guess it has something to do with the board's footprint and there just physically not being space to accommodate the battery. I'd trade the ethernet port about now for an RTC module though ;)
