The point is that when I take lunch, it's exactly at 12:00 and not
at 12:01. I don't want the man to get getting that extra minute ;)
Seriously though I wouldn't worry about this level of detail. If
you're concerned about this at the exam time just ask the proctor. Also the
time range on the router isn't a real time process. Even though you say
11:59 the process may not come into affect until 11:59:30.239 and not
necessarily 11:59:00.000
