I have a BCM 400 that occasionally the time gets off on the phones and have to go in and reset the time. Any ideas why this happens. Thanks.
 
Clock drift. Just like a PC. The real time clock chip on the BCM system board isn't 100% accurate.

You can configure the BCM to use NTP - it will then sync with a NTP server a handful of times each day to keep the clock synchronized.
 
Thanks, I haven't looked that up yet. Is it in the documentations??
 
Yup. Look under Services, NTP client. Enter a valid NTP server address and you're done.
 
Thanks a bunch, I'll give that a try.
