Machine clock out of sync with Cardano network

Problem

Daedalus is displaying a red screen message related to your machine time being out of sync. 

Cause

The time on your computer is not in sync with the network. If the time on your computer is off by more than 20 seconds from Network Time (used by Daedalus wallet), Daedalus wallet will not be able to connect to the network.

Note that the 'Cannot Connect to Network' message can be caused by a number of problems. See 'Cannot Connect to Network' message article for more information.
