was there any output? what does ntpq -p say? is there anything interesting in dmesg?

It doesn't work. Port 123/UDP is also forwarded

Did you try stopping the ntp daemon, then running `ntpdate [ntp - server/pool address]` then starting the ntp daemon back up?

That's what I do when my offset gets too large.

I have the latest version of OpenWRT and the time it displays is always wrong, no matter if I sync with the browser (tried different), no matter which NTP pool I use (tried some here too), no matter which time zone I select, the time doesn't change. I don't want to manually set the time, I want it to use NTP. What could be wrong?
