    The Dock has to see the file on the TND that controls the DID or serial number of the unit. Without that it does not know what files/maps to download.

    You don't need the internet once the files are downloaded and are ready to push to the TND.

    The SD Card will be needed in the TND also, since the Dock will try to sense it.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Update - TA in Ft Bridger, WY - TND shows it on a Dirt road, brown line. Since HERE and GoogleMaps only show the little nub off the ramp I have asked them to move the Lat/Long to the last paved area which should take care of the issue.

    Eddie's Travel Center in Mascoutah, IL (i64 exit 23) is not in the system - verified - submitted to have it added

    TA - Grand Island, NE, shows on a dirt road on the TND, shows paved in HERE, submitted change.

    SAC truck stop missing - verified and submitted

    I can remote into it. Sounds like it is not seeing the SD Card.

    My 720 crashed at least every 48 hours, if not more often, before the update. After the update, the unit runs much smoother and I have not had to restart the unit in 2 weeks now.

    I do have one slight issue. When entering any text into the unit, the time from physical tap to on screen appearance is anywhere from 1 to 3 seconds - major lag. This happens on all input screens: address, city, fuel log etc.
