SSID availability, Local time zone for Fort Worth, Texas

I went through the list of Meraki options for selecting a time zone in the "Network Wide > General" settings. I selected "America - Beulah, North Dakota (UTC -5.0, DST)" even though I am in Fort Worth, Texas. I don't tend to mess with time zones much but I need to make sure that one of my SSIDs runs on a schedule. Anyhow, I'm unsure if this is the best option. Any thoughts? Is there a site that allows me to type in my location and it out puts out the best option Meraki has available?

That choice should be fine, but if you need a reference...

The IANA time zone identifier for San Antonio is America/Chicago.

In Meraki Dashboard, you can select "America - Chicago (UTC -5.0, DST)"

Kind of a big deal

I try to make sure all of my timezones are configured correctly in Network Wide>General for each of my networks for the reason you just mentioned.  Any time schedules etc will be properly enforced to their local timezone.
