Internet time is wrong
Comcast
dismisses this condition as inconsequential
despite that:
all connected devices require correct internet time to function
I have asked for help in finding a solution several times

Where are you seeing incorrect time, what time are you seeing, and what should the time be?

Daylight Saving Time in the US ended yesterday, Sunday 11/7 at 2am. As you have been informed previously, modems and gateway logs and admin pages report local Standard Time year round. This time is only used internally and is NOT the time attached devices use. That's determined by device settings and Internet or cell system time sources, not by the modem or gateway internal time.
You should edit your post to remove the MAC addresses you posted (WAN MAC, eMTA MAC, CM MAC). Forum security processing considers them "personal information".

Except for client devices that have connections to cell service or some other Internet link, that's correct. Clients that get their time information via a Comcast Internet connection communicate through the gateway (or modem).
The key word here is "through". The time information is not supplied by the gateway, and the gateway doesn't modify the time information. It is simply a conduit though which the time data passes as it moves from an Internet time server to the client device.
As already noted, that is incorrect. Gateways and modems report local Standard Time year round for their own pages, but do not pass that time along to attached devices. In other words, they do not act as time servers.
Not my "Advanced Security". I am not now and have never been a Comcast employee. I'm just a reluctant customer with too much time on his hands.
I have no idea why you posted all the security certificate data. Was there some point to that?
