Sync Failed on WIFI with new Firmware 14.20

"Sync Failed"

Garmin MK2s no longer syncs properly via WIFI on new firmware 14.20. Works fine on previous firmware.

Wifi connection is successful, watch tries to sync, followed by 'sync failed'. However after checking Garmin Connect, the data was uploaded.

- No error when syncing via Bluetooth.

- No error on version 8.60

- Have full reset the watch twice.

- Have deleted and restored the garmin app on phone, and used to to setup the watch from scratch.

- Have tested on a second MK2s watch and same issue occurs - synced on 8.60, then failed to sync via Wifi on 14.20

From reading the forums, this same issue happens on the Fenix 6xPro. From my understanding Garmin Descent MK2 firmware 14.20 is using the Fenix 6x pro firmware as a base version.

I ran into this today with 14.1. For some reason I didn't get notification of an update to 15. I got 16 today but will wait a bit to update. All that said, I tried to to a wifi sync today and it failed.
