Document setting GMT time in BIOS to fix "Hiding to your local network that you are connecting to Tor"
After reflashing my BIOS firmware I couldn't connect to "Hiding to your local network that you are connecting to Tor" as it uses the BIOS time and date instead of ntp like automatic to get time. (atleast that is my impression that it does?)
How I fixed this:
Changed the date to exact current date and the time to exact GMT (Greenwich Mean Time +00:00 UTC) in the BIOS by looking on my phone or another computer at a GMT current timezone website to copy the time by entering it manually.
Why this might be useful?
-
You recently flashed a new BIOS
-
You don't have a battery in your laptop
-
Your BIOS date and time is not correct
