    When navigating with the Edge(r) 1030 Plus FW 2.42 the "Remaining Distance" field does not show the distance to the end point (the field remains empty)  when navigating a route.

    For me, the edge continues to restart. WiFi didn't help.

    Have you been able to get the GPS update yet?

    GPS 4.50 stands there.

    If the problem is the same as with the latest 1030 beta, disabling WiFi should fix the problem with connecting to a PC.

    Hi all, here below step by step what I've done to run 2.42 fw beta + GPS SW 4.50 properly on my device:

    1. Before the fw installation I double checked that Wi-Fi connection is enable on the device

    2. Update my device following the related instruction. Once that I copied the file into the Garmin folder I disconnect the device from pc and rebooted it

    3. Once the FW upgrade has been completed after a couple of minutes and device completed the restarted, I check if it started to download the GPS sw update but nothing happened

    4. I plugged the device into pc and opened Garmin Express:the device started to reboot continuously

    5. I've unplugged the device, waiting the device restart and then something happened: GPS SW has been downloaded through the Wi-Fi connection

    6. Rebooted the device last time, waiting the GPS SW upgrade to 4.50 and everything started to work properly again, garmin express/usb connection include

    I think that the device should be plugged-in into pc/garmin express software once time at least, it seems that garmin express sent a sort of "green flag" to device that allowed him to download the GPS SW last update, but this operation seems that doesn't work using a pc/garmin express (looping reboot) and the only workaround at the moment is to download it using wi-fi device built-in connection

    I really hope that the "checklist" above could be useful for someone else! Wink

    PS: new beta firmware 2.42 + GPS 4.50 tested today for 3 hours and working better than 2.30.

    The first thing that I notice was that all the ANT+ sensor randomly disconnections (I had several devices connected: RTL510 light/radar, power meter, HR monitor, speed sensor) and also iPhone (model 8 with iOS 13.6) randomly disconnection completely disappeared after the upgrade, well done Garmin! Clap

    Clearly, altitude higher than 12K meters is definitely needed for cycling, on earth Smiley
