I was wondering if any of you would have an example of sending the 48 bytes command to a ntp server to get the time back.
I get that a can send a string to an udp port but for the ntp i need to send 48 bytes with the first one set to 35.

any help would be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

- Sun Aug 28, 2016 5:30 pm #54021 Thanks for the suggestion russm but i would like to connect to the ntp server that i use internally and right now it is not possible to set the server in the timesetup() so i would need to do it manually.

Although i have figured out how to modify the code of the timesetup() function to add the server but it is very preliminary and untested.
