I have to say, that is pretty misleading.  The Pipeline 75 does not have
a real-time clock and thus no time/date or SNTP support and thus could
never be set.

This is why there is a problem some caller-id equipment attached to the
P75 analog phone jack, when the ISDN switch does not provide a Date/time
information element - the P75 does not have a time value of its own to
use as a substitute.
