I'm a complete newbie to Garmin, I just bought my first GPS yesterday and installed basecamp on my Mac. (Although I'm new to Garmin, I am a computer programmer.) When I create a route between 2 points, something very simple, I am always routed through a third point that is miles away. To make the problem obvious, I selected 2 adjacent intersections in downtown Houston and set the profile to driving. You can see what I mean from the screenshot. Obviously I'm missing something simple but I just can't find it.
Edit for more information:
1. I reset all settings in basecamp to default and restarted basecamp.
2. Set the activity to driving
3. Selected a start point in the middle of a well established street
4. I selected 4 points a few feet apart on the same street.
5. basecamp is routing me to the highway intersection in between each point on the road, see the second screenshot
Thanks for any help,
Tom
