Did you modify /etc/TZ to a full TZ value as indicated here? http://search.cpan.org/~zefram/DateTime … SystemV.pm

For example, Eastern Time is
/ # cat /etc/TZ
EST5EDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0

DNS 323 clock setting is dud.  FW 1.08 requires you to manually input the dates for time changes.  Synchronisation facility provided does not work either.     It is all desperately amateur.     Good ole D-Link

(and by the way my son is looking for a well paid IT programming job . . . probably need not apply(?)). 

Of course everything else in the world corrects time automatically - such as cooker, alarm clock, car dashboard clock and so on. 
I don't have the knowledge to write or to run programmes to keep the clock correct.

My answer - some of the year I set up for central EUSSR time and the rest of the year British time.  This I do when I remember or when the sync programme I use fails.

I have settings in fun.plug.local but I am not sure when they run.

I believe I have the correct setting in the TZ file now for any future changes.

sntp, which updates the time (using the NTP protocol) has nothing to do with the time-zone.
You should update your time TZ settings from the web interface or do something like these:

Ah, OK thanks for that.

I seem to recall I had problems with lots of TWSI ? errors and amended this a while back to avoid these.?

Hopefully I will not need to change this again.

Thanks again to all who replied, and your patience with a newbie.

/ffp/etc/fun_plug.local is executed once at boot time, just before the /ffp/start scripts.
