I've recently had trouble with my 530 taking a long time to download a course from Connect. I kept getting a notification saying the device was busy, and couldn't sync. Seems to be ok now, maybe it was doing some background updates or something?

I normally get my routes in to my 530 from RWGPS via a GarminIQ app.

This has always been fine, and still is fine for short routes. However the last couple of long routes have taken ages to sync across.

Assuming you're at home, if you use wifi you don't need to turn on bluetooth or install an app on the Garmin.

If you also join the Garmin to your phone's hotspot, you can plan a route in RWGPS on your phone and then sync the Garmin via the hotspot wifi.

hippy hates bluetooth
