I created a small program for the Wii that syncs the system time with a Network Time Protocol server. Note that you will need to manually adjust for your time zone. If you're interested, feel free to give it a try!
This is a utility for the Nintendo Wii that synchronizes the system time with the NTP time. There are two options for using this utility:
 
# Manual Adjustment: The user can manually adjust the time zone using the Wii remote or GameCube controller. The time zone is not saved, so it will need to be adjusted manually each time.
#Configuration using a time zone configuration file: To use this option, create a tzdb.cfg file on the root of the SD card in your Wii. Populate the file with the following lines:
<pre>
http://api.timezonedb.com/v2.1/get-time-zone?key=MY_API_KEY&format=json&by=zone&zone=America/Toronto&fields=gmtOffset
autosave
</pre>
 
You will need to register for an account at timezonedb.com, and replace MY_API_KEY with the API key you receive. You can also change the time zone from the list available at https://timezonedb.com/time-zones. If you want the utility to exit automatically after adjusting the time, keep the "autosave" line, otherwise, remove it.
 
It's important to note that this utility changes the counter bias, which is part of the system configuration. There is always a risk that updating this counter bias could corrupt your system. I shall not be held responsible if this happens. I have tested this on my Wii system, and it works fine. Happy hacking!
