Garmin speed sensor wrong time zone?

Hello, I received my Garmin speed sensor v2 yesterday and it is working, but it is uploading all activities with GMT-1:00 Azores time, although my profile is in middle Europea summer time. Do you know how to fix that problem?

at garmin they are too stupid to fix a timezone bug in 2 years!!

glad that the speed sensor is the only product i bought from that "smart" company.

HI, same problem over here. Do you also get duplicate activities from the sensor, and from the watch?

I thought this timezone discrepency might be the origin of the trouble.

Check that there is not a software update for the sensor.

There is no software update, it is 2.30 and says that it is the latest.

Same problem for me.

For some reason I thought I read on another thread that there was a software update to 2.60 that fixed the issue.

Do you have any Edge units?

No, I use a FR945.

2.60 is the sensor version ? Mine is 2.30 and connect says it's up to date.

Let me follow up with Garmin on this.

I bought my Garmin Speed Sensor 2 a couple of days ago and I also am experiencing this issue.

My Speed Sensor 2 is using the latest firmware (version 2.30).

I just got my speed sensor 2 and have a Garmin edge 530, the edge is showing the correct time on activities, but the speed sensor is still wrong. Are there any suggestions on what to do to correct this?
