Mini boxes time change
Some of the mini boxes aren't showing the correct time after the time change. It shows 7 instead of 8 for example. I restarted it, called tech support. They couldn't figure it out either. Maybe...

Is the correct time a feature of the Mini Box?
Hello Bruce. While the mini boxes do not have an external clock, they do have an internal one that correlates with the guide. -Allan, Cox Support Forums Moderator.
I'd think it'd be the other way around. The guide correlates to the time-sync function of the box.
Is the time-sync function of the box network dependent? Probably not because the headend at Cox wouldn't be off by an hour. Is there a Time Zone setting within the Mini Box? If so, I'm assuming OP had correctly set it during initial setup because the time was correct during Standard Time.
What would force a time re-sync? Just repetitively rebooting until it catches?
- Hi Bruce, there isn't a time zone setting in the mini box or even a physical clock. The current date and time are displayed within the Guide window. In most cases, rebooting the box will fix Guide sync issues. Sometimes wacky things happen, like in this specific situation. Our video systems team is working on it. -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator
