<![CDATA[ntptime.getTimestamp returns incorrect timestamp.]]>version: UIFlow: v1.9.5

code:

text = M5Label('text', x=38, y=137, color=0x000, font=FONT_MONT_30, parent=None)
text2 = M5Label('text', x=38, y=117, color=0x000, font=FONT_MONT_30, parent=None)
ntp = ntptime.client()
ts = ntp.getTimestamp()
year = ntp.year()
month = ntp.month()
day = ntp.day()
text.set_text('%s' % (ts))
text2.set_text('%s-%s-%s' % (year, month, day))

expected:
corrected timestamp as now (2022-09-19 ish).
saw: some strange timestamp in around 1992. (716937583)

I'm wondering whether this is within expectation?

hi @ajb2k3 ～

Thank you so much for the reply.

As you can see from the screenshot:
the year-month-day (text2) shows expected date-time though.
I would assume that we do have successful ntp connection because of text2.
In my real code, the time-server is set as our internal time-server, and the timezone is set as 0 (for UTC).

1992 would imply that it doesn’t have a valid time click connection
