    Sounds like the Wi-Fi card might be bad internally. Have you called RM Support yet?

    Thanks,
    Mark

    The Ferrite bead was put on the DC cord for that purpose.

    Hi Mark, I had an issue last night heading into Columbus, OH. I was pulling a 53' with hazmat, as I approached the city I received a warning that the route may not be suitable for hazmat, plus the hours to destination was in the upper three hundred hours when I was only a few miles away. Very frustrating, luckily it was before morning traffic started. It routed me exactly where I was NOT to go. The only way I found to correct the problem was to clear out the hazmat setting to none.

    Inside the loop is off limits to HazMat. It will give you a warning, but if you need to deliver continue your route.

    As far as the mileage, no sure about that. Have never heard of that one.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Wifi is not required unless you're using weather/traffic/fuel prices

    Co-Pilot you would have to Google.

    7" versus 5"

    7" has Calendar, Notepad, Video in (for camera), and able to connect an RM HD-100 (EOBR).

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Dock software/update file. Trying to update an TND 500, went to Rand McNally website to download the software, seems like a rather large file ? Worried it would exceed my cellular data plan. What size is the download ?
