Hi, running fine using WiFi transport, but connecting to internet via SIM800L using TinyGSM library it fail retrieving the time.

void setupDateTime() {
    DateTime.setTimeZone(TZ_Europe_Rome);
    DateTime.setServer("it.pool.ntp.org");
    DateTime.begin(15000);
    if (!DateTime.isTimeValid()) {
        Serial.println("Failed to get time from server.");
    } else {
        Serial.printf("Date Now is %s\r\n", DateTime.toISOString().c_str());
        Serial.printf("Timestamp is %ld\r\n", DateTime.now());
    }
}

And this is the log of my code :

I do not have any gsm modem, you can try to use another ntp server, or test your gprs tcp connection with ntp server

I have a problem with WiFi also, works in the house, but in Dual Axis Solar Tracker 300' away, doesn't pickup WiFi. Is there another way? I'm using the library to update RTC (DS3232RTC) if differs by some setting (10 minutes).

Thanks for the great work on this library!
