Well maintained IoT equipment is not allowed to access the public internet. The amount of security reviews would be a night mare.
Currently the NTP servers are hardcoded, thus the OEPL-AP need internet access. Without, it seems not to run stable.
In the first turn it would be enough, to replace the static NTP servers strings by values from the configuration database. If those are empty, simple preset them to the current static string. The web interface could present this setting as a space separated list.
It would be great, if in the DHCP case the system pulls the time server from DHCP too. If no available by DHCP, fall back to the static strings.
