How to set the time zone & time on Synology NAS DSM
Recently I needed to setup a scheduled shutdown task for my Synology DS 1813+ NAS. After I created the task, I wanted to check the time to make sure it would be triggered at the correct time.
Turns out that my timezone had never been set correctly, so here is how I fixed it:
Login to NAS via web brower -> Control Panel -> Regional Options -> Time Zome

Just FYI here is the awesome NAS in question (though DSM runs on many different Synology units)
