Problems with windows 10 time

[Day Fish]

Hello, I saw a Linus video on YouTube recently about windows 10 computers and how they set their time. As I have been having issues recently with my own computers time and no one else has been able to do anything about it, I thought I might as well try here. So when ever I try to set my windows 10 machine to "set time automatically" it jumps my time about 12 hours forward than my actual EST time. It also automatically set my time zone to Beijing, China, even though I live in the south east United States, and have never taken my computer out of country. I believe it is doing this due to a network issue, as the same problem has happened to every other windows 10 device that connects to this internet. We tried replacing the router, but the replacement does the same thing. What I guess I'm asking is does anyone know how to make my computer realise that it is not actually in China, because when I access certain sites, like my online school for example, it thinks I'm 12 hours ahead and I lose my chance to submit my papers. I have my time set manually now, but the network seems to affect where websites think I am. I realise I started rambling a bit in this post, so if there is anything you need me to clear up, I would be more than happy to. Thank you for any help.

Go to https://www.whatismyip.com/. If it detects you're in China, either someone did something nefarious to your network or your ISP is doing something bad.

 

Worst comes to worse, you can use a VPN that has a US server to make other sites think you're in the US.

The method that various services, including Windows's clock-thingy, use to determine where you are located is called "geolocation." There's not much you can do about it, it's your ISP's job: you should contact them, explain that all geolocation-services, including Windows's own, think you are located in China instead of the U.S., and you'd like for them to examine why this is. It could be related to the recent news about how a lot of U.S.- and Canada-traffic has been routed through China.

@Day Fish try checking your "Outlook" settings.

 

Outlook controls calender and emails, see what servers it is referring to and if you cant you may need to talk to microsoft support to fix it.

Thanks for the tip, M.Yurizaki, but that site tells me my IP is going through D.C, which should be right, it is just the other websitesand my computer that seem to be getting it wrong. I will look into my outlook settings, and if that doesn't work, I guess I will just have to talk with my ISP again. Thanks for the tips.
