If you are talking about the first entries in syslog that start on Jan 1 01:00:11 its perfectly normal and will go away after NTP updates, assuming you have NTP properly setup.
99% of consumer routers dont have a real time clock (RTC) so when you reset them/reboot them on boot there is no such valid time/date information. So initial date/time starts from January 1st 1970 01:00:00
You will notice the Jan 1 01:00:11 entries are all for the boot/initialization process. After this NTP runs adn walla.
Code:
snip......
Jan 1 01:00:42 router user.info : [process_monitor] : successfully started
Jan 1 01:00:42 router kern.notice kernel: [ 42.756801] SCSI subsystem initialized
Jan 1 01:00:42 router daemon.debug ntpclient[1727]: Connecting to 2.pool.ntp.org [212.99.225.86] ...

Its a chronological record. there is not point of the opposite that's not how syslog works. You can always search the web, since you like to figure things out by yourself.
"there is not point of the opposite" ... i just told you the point... so the new data is at the start and i dont need to go to the last page every time.
and do people here have to SOOK in like every reply?? is that like a thing with this forum? have all your periods sync up?

Type man syslogd on the web to see the manual for it. Should be top hits on that.
The syslog file is written from point of boot-up until present. This can rotate, depending on the syslog mechanism configuration . To write it backwards would require reading the logfile backwards at the same time it is writing in forwards. There are some folks who'd like an infinite scrolling page frame so there's no clicking 'next'. Going to stop myself there, so I don't get a talkin' to. _________________ "The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

as simple as that... the developers are not working especially for you "ppl"...but for the ppl

I understood what you asked, and I explained that is not how syslog works, you just ignore what isn't convenient for your narrative and take something out of that context just to be double rude.
You will need to research this yourself, especially since you prefer to learn how to yourself. Right?

And this is now, the time I give you your second and final warning, this kind of disrespectful attitude against forums rules and common decency. No one here ever disrespected you.
You have a choice, there are plenty other communities out there.
