Just a heads up. I tried to download the firmware update and it fails. I tried twice with the same result.

Working now.

Out of curiosity: Did you find out what made the update fail when you tried it the first time?

For whatever reason, the only way I can seem to update firmware on my 700i is manually - OTA update over WiFi never happens, and Garmin Express progress bar always stops at 50%, saying it's done, but doesn't actually update the GPS. I'm sure a factory reset might help, but I hate doing that. Map updates via Garmin Express seem to work ok, space willing.

It wasn't uploaded to the server yet

Just with this version (15.20), or on previous versions as well? If previous versions also, a master reset may be in your best interest.

With all versions since I've had the unit. A reset was first on my mind, thanks for that confirmation, but it's just a big hammer and I hate setting everything up again. One of these days I'll do it, though...
