Hello Jaafar Sarim -

This is really a question for your NAS vendor, as Radiator simply 
transcribes the data it receives from the NAS when it is received.

It may be that the Acct-Session-Time includes the call setup and the 
modem training that happens before the Start record is generated.

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
