Good morning,

I need to synchronize the time of the devices connected to my network (which is not exposed on the internet), all with the same time.

I thought about synchronizing the time of the tablets with that of the connected device. Do you think it's possible?

What other alternatives do you suggest?

Unfortunately the devices cannot go on the internet.

huh, do you use omada router?

if I were you, i'd set up:

1. my own ntp server w/ a valid ip.

2. dhcp server with DHCP option 42 specify the IP of my ntp

 

eap is a dumb dumb. it does not sync the time for your clients. 

ScReW yOu gUyS. I aM GOinG hoMe. —————————————————————— For heaven's sake, can you write and describe your issue based on plain fact, common logic and a methodologic approach? Appreciate it.

I have a Tp-Link TL-R605 which I use to distribute ip addresses to my devices

Tedd's answer is the way to go.  There are freeware NTP servers out there, you just need a platform to run them on.
