FW 6.00

Ciao, a cosa serve Usa t. m. MTB? Disabilitandola non ti cambia la mappa?? 

Thers is a problem connecting to WiFi. My password has special characters (to be exact a @ sign) and on Edge 830, when entering WiFi password, there is a blank space displayed instead of the character. Also, I'm unable to connect to that WiFi network.

The font size on the Di2 adjustment screen that pops up when doing the electronic adjustments has decreased in size. Not the end of the world but it was easier to read in previous versions with the larger font size.

Previous versions.

FW 6.0

Is there any change log for the GPS firmware v4.50 ?

I tried this morning v4.50 on a twisty single trail covered by pine trees and it was perfectly tracked...

Maybe a placebo effect ?

Because until now v2.90 was quite desapointing VS my Suunto Ambit3 or my Garmin Etrex 30x... I was about to sell my 830 and keep my old trusted Etrex 30x.

But with v4.50 it seems better.

I have serious issues since V6.00 on my 830.
Speed reading is totally eratic with speed going from 40 to 5 then 20 in a matter of seconds without real speed reduction of the bike...

GPS precision is way worse than previous version...
I just bought this GPS a few weeks ago... I'm really disappointed... //

Three rides with FW 6.00 and three radar (RTL 510) disconnects.

On one of those rides (today), the radar light kept switching itself off and on twice.

I noticed also that GPS precision went from bad to worse.

I had high hopes for this update... 

I upgraded my 830 to FW 6.0 (from 5.5) a few days ago. I've had a few issues that I didn't notice on FW 5.5. But it could be that I only have a few weeks experience with the 830 and RTL515 on FW5.5.

Today I got about 1/2 mile from the house and couldn't remember closing the garage door, so I reversed course (the 830 wanting to recalc) but didn't touch the 830. After verifying the garage door closure, I turned around and resumed my ride and assumed the 830 would pick back up once I reached the spot where I turned around. Nope. I went about a quarter mile past that spot and it never picked back up, so I hit the recalc button, then got a recal error and had to cancel the route and re-select the route.

I don't know that I ever duplicated that scenario under 5.5, but I don't recall ever seeing a recalc error like that. I've now seen issues with the recalc function on a couple of rides since the update to 6.0

And as regards the RTL 515, I've had a couple instances where it hasn't reported a vehicle behind me. The first time I thought was just an anomaly or maybe I wasn't quite sure if it missed the vehicle or not. Today, there was a 3rd vehicle a few hundred yards behind a 2nd vehicle that was never reported. I saw the first 2 vehicles on my 830, but the 3rd one never showed up. It was a late model Tacoma 4 door pickup, so no way it missed it. OTOH, a cyclist snuck up on me later in my ride and my RTL 515 notified me of closing traffic... and the overtaking cyclist was the culprit.

I don't recall ever seeing the RTL 515 miss overtaking traffic prior to the FW 6.0 update. But again, I've only had the equipment for a few weeks, so I may not have been in a similar scenario with the older FW.

Lastly, I've noticed lately (since the update) that my 830 is giving me some bogus navigation instructions (turn onto off roads from my route). Since I know where I'm going, I just ignore the instructions and cycle on and the 830 figures itself out and joins back up without further input from me.

I think I'm going to delete all the saved coursed in my 830 and transfer them back over from my PC and see if that resolves that minor issue.

Anyone else seen similar anomalies since the update to 6.0?

My RTL 510  disconnected twice on a 50k ride today, so FW 6.00 did not solved this issue?
