Home network hardware supplier D-Link has been accused of harming the net's ability to tell the time accurately.
Detective work has found that many D-Link routers, switches and wireless access points are bombarding some net time servers with huge amounts of data.
Time servers help many net functions run smoothly. For instance they have a role in deciding who made the last bid in eBay auctions.
D-Link is now taking action after protests from time server overseers.
