No update yet for me?

I have gotten the last couple updates for my descent Via Garmin connect, however this update has yet to come through. Most of the other updates usually come through within a day of release. If I go to the Garmin connect web site it still says my watch is up to date with version 6.0. I rarely use a computer and the one I have is old and slow so connect is the best way for me to get the updates but doesn't seem to work all the time.

If Garmin could make the connect app notify you of an update so you can push it to the watch manually that would be superb. I'm not really a fan of the auto update.

You’ll want to use GC on a computer because you need to download Webupdater and download the new GPS 2.50 update. You can also pull the 8.00 software as well. It’s unpredictable if you try to use GCM and download the update.

You may also see a Map Update if you go through GE.

I got all the updates through Garmin Express. It was quick and easy.

I received the 8.0 update via Garmin Connect, but had to use Webupdater to get the GPS 2.50 update.

0321tony As Odie and Mark mentioned the GPS firmware may not update correctly so I recommend you download WebUpdater to install the 8.00 software and GPS firmware as well. This program is lightweight and should run fine on an older computer.
