Update boardParams.h as follows:

Comment out old definitions:

// #define DEFAULT_START_DAYLIGHT_RULE “4.1.0/02:00:00” /* April,1st week,sunday/2am /
// #define DEFAULT_END_DAYLIGHT_RULE “10.5.0/02:00:00” / October,last week,sunday/2am */

Add new ones:

#define DEFAULT_START_DAYLIGHT_RULE “3.2.0/02:00:00” /* March,2nd week,sunday/2am /
#define DEFAULT_END_DAYLIGHT_RULE “11.1.0/02:00:00” / November,1st week,sunday/2am */

Is this fixed in later versions?

Not yet, but I have opened an internal bug report on this. Thanks.

Just remember to tell them that this is for the US (and perhaps Canada). The rest of the world (that has DST at all) will use the old rules. This is something in NET+OS that really ought to be modernized a bit.
