Internet Access Time: Does not mean that you can access internet at that time, instead, it displays the restriction access time period; in other word, the filter rules setup on the parental control page will take effect during the selected time period.

The time schedule takes effect based on the system time of the router. Go to Advanced > System Tools > Time Settings to set the correct system time.
