Update your Nintendo Switch clock using a list of public NTP servers.
Using a custom DNS (or a limited connection) it's not possible to update your clock with Nintendo's servers and the Switch appears to gain some minutes each month.
With QuickNTP, you can now quickly update your clock connecting to a public NTP server using Tesla.
Note: This program alters NetworkSystemClock, which could potentially result in a desync between console and servers. Use at your own risk.
Features
- Update the time by selecting from a list of servers.
- Show the current offset against the selected server.
- Set the internal network time to the time set by the user in system settings (time traveling).
Installation
Requires Tesla overlay (Tesla-Menu and nx-ovlloader) installed.
To install QuickNTP, copy the .ovl file in /switch/.overlays/.
User guide
Start the Tesla overlay with L+D-Pad-Down+Right Stick (no need to restart the console).
Then select QuickNTP from the menu.
The "Synchronize Clock via Internet" option should be enabled in System settings as described here, since this program changes the "Network clock" (immutable in settings).
Disclaimer
Please don't send a lot of requests. NTP servers should be requested in 36 hours intervals.
This program changes NetworkSystemClock, which may cause a desync between console and servers. Use at your own risk. It is recommended that you only use the changed clock while offline, and change it back as soon as you are connected (either manually or using ntp.org server.)
