Wifi sync has no information

My 1050 is on 11.24.  It show Wifi connected (solid wifi pie) with a small sync icon in the lower left of the wifi icon. This has been the same for 1/2 hour or so.  When I go to map manager and check for updates, it tells me "transfer in progress - waiting for the current transfer to finish".  However, there is absolutely nothing that indicates what it is transferring.  The map version indicates it's 24.20 (I think that is the current version).  The annoying thing is that whether it is plugged in to power or not, it goes to sleep after 2-5 minutes and pauses the transfer.  Does anyone know how to keep it on until it's done transferring what it needs to transfer?  Or how to find the status of the transfer?  It doesn't tell you what it's transferring, % complete or give you an option to cancel the transfer.
