Re: Garmin - Updates over Wifi not working?

Have you rebooted your router? When my tv stops working, nothing else will reestablish the connection. And yes, other devices in the house still have comms with the wifi at the time, just the tv stops. Rebooting the tv does nothing, only the router. Not quite but kind of... My router is not the ...

Garmin - Updates over Wifi not working?

Anyone else seeing this OR is anyone else actually getting connected to the update server? I have been seeing this for a few weeks straight now. I suspect it may not be coming back. If so, it's another failed feature for which I really thought the XT2 would be a winner. Instead, I'm the loser. Fool ...

Now you know...

Wonder how it is that Garmin can seemingly abandon an entire community of users (i.e. Motorcyclists), here's an example of where they are putting their efforts. Instead of improving BaseCamp, better connectivity with phones, headsets, etc., they are focused on another community. Along with watches ...

Re: DONT UPDATE GARMIN EXPRESS

I guess you could but I don't have that many friends and even fewer have ZUMO XTs. Might just be easier to roll back to the 7.23 version of Garmin Express.

DONT UPDATE GARMIN EXPRESS

Garmin Express 7.24 will NOT let you save the MAP to your laptop / PC. If you did, here's a link to the previous version https://garmin-express.en.uptodown.com/windows/download/1021794763 Not sure why they have taken away this feature but they have. Also NOTE: You may need to go into your explorer ...

Re: Need help: Bluetooth problems XT2

Are you connecting to a headset or similar? What I have found is that for some headsets, phones and GPS Units, there can be only one (1) Bluetooth master . Bluetooth is a varying spectrum (no pun intended) of capabilities wrapped inside each technology release. BT 1.0 is not the same as BT 6.0 and ...

Re: Fuel tracking

It will not function as you desire if you don't power it via the connection cable they provide. If you choose to power by USB it will not track or "realize" that it is in the motorcycle mount, and won't track the fuel tank info. Sorry to tell you that but might provide info for a different option or ...

Re: Basecamp

Yes, within BaseCamp. The device will be listed and you can grab the route, folder, whatever and drop and drag it into the XT2.

You can drag to Internal Storage or SD/User Data.

Re: Basecamp

Yes. No issues *just a few issues

Once you click OK that BaseCamp does not support the XT2 you can drop and drag the routes.

Done it 100s of times so far. No issues.

Re: Being forced to go back to a waypoint

I'd like to say it might be different but I can't confirm that without a test.

Others may have better insight into the differences between "Skip" vs "Recalculate". If I were to guess there is likely distinction between the two.
