    I replaced my 710 for d 720 But Im not sure Im likin it better, It is never able to connect to d internet to give me weather info...... And The route Im running comes in all angles in d screen unlike the 710 which was always from top to bottom, also no matter how much I go into settings I cant get it to show me clearly all d streets along d freeway clearly like the 710 used to....Its quiker to process reroutings, But thatsvabout it.... I hope its tougher built by because I dont wee any improvements....

    1. What are you using for your Hotspot or you not sure how to connect?
    2. On the Map screen, to the right of the big white bar at the bottom, tap on the direction to change to either North up, 3D, or Direction up.
    3. Go to Main page/Preferences/Map/Map Auto Zoom - change this to street view.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    For the lifetime maps promo being they only ask for name, serial number and email. am assuming from this we will see it show up at some point when we dock?

    How do you tell if the unit is completely updated, the reason I ask is that the first unit I got did a lot of updating when first connected to the dock,the replacement unit says that it's up to date,just want to make sure everything is ok with this new one. Software Version 12.4.2364.1912

    Thanks
    John

    Yes, but understand the 720 is on the latest maps.

    Thanks,

    OK Thanks,just seemed strange that the first one I got just over 2wks ago updated for almost 20min and this one says it's up to date right out of the box.

    The first time you connected that model it downloaded files from the server to your computer. The 2nd TND was the same model so it did not need re-download the files again.

    Thank,
