time stamp not working

I noticed that the time stamp on both of my handsets  is incorrect. I set it per the instructions and when I have an incoming call it goes wacky. I is showing 8:38 m when it is 1:30 pm. I have caller Id. How do I fix this? It just started happen about 2 weeks ago. HELP PLEASE

      iT IS A vTECH MODEL is 81212. Put in new batteries, followed instruction in manuel to set. Where would phone modem be- is it my actual modem? The call log looks like time is correct.

        It depends, you might use your phone modem for internet or you might use a different modem/gateway. It would be what ever device you have with a phone cord(RJ11) coming out of it. Try entering 192.168.100.1 in a browser. If nothing comes up you either have a phone/internet/wifi combo(AKA gateway) or a separate phone modem not connect to your network. If a gateway, try 192.168.0.1. I can give better instructions once I know what you have.

    The time on your phone, is set from the phone itself, you will need to look up the instructions for your phone to set the time on it.

    8:38 m

    Would this be the time-of-day, duration of call or a type-o?

        Still would not have anything to do with the modem or the Cox service, as it doesn't supply Time Of Day, it supplies voice from another person. TOD functions on your handset is a function of your handset, or base.

    is the time stamp correct if you log into voice tools?

    I don't believe you answered that question.  If time of day is correct in Voice Tools, then there's probably an issue with your handset or base,

      Another thing I might suggest is logging into the phone modem and see if the UI has a date/time section and if it's correct. I seem to remember the DPQ3212 having it but not sure about the TM3402.
