Raspberry Auto Time Calibration

Should be Raspberry Pi system version issue, many methods online to enable Network Time Protocol (auto time calibration) have failed. For a beginner like me, tried many methods, none succeeded.

Today let’s talk about the correct way to enable;

Raspberry Pi doesn’t enable auto time calibration by default. Need to enable NTP (Network Time Protocol) to ensure time accuracy as much as possible.

Enable NTP:

sudo timedatectl set-ntp true

Next let’s see if time is correct:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ date
Monday, March 20, 2017 21:38:41 CST

Clearly time is correct. If time difference is within 24 hours, probably timezone is wrong.
