A network (100) comprises at least a network device (110) and a further network device (120). The network device (110) arranged for detecting an event (170), for receiving a first timestamp (420) of the further network device and for taking a second timestamp. The network device is arranged for providing a signal (180) in dependence of a counter (450) reaching an end count. The network device arranged for synchronizing the signal (180) with a further signal (190) provided by the further network device (120) by adjusting a value of the end count (60) to a modified end count (230), the modified end count being in dependence of the first and second timestamp. After having provided the synchronized signal (180c, 180d) the value of the end count is re-adjusted from the modified end count to its value prior to the adjustment.
