Hi all,

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.

There is an Arduino example for this,

Look at the projects I've posted. The panel display clock uses NTP and breaks down the time from 24 hour format. Also, the Aquarium light timer is similar.

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.
