 |
|
On my 950Live for about the last week or so I get the map showing without traffic bar then it attempts to connect followed by yellow triangle.
Once connected the traffic stays connected but getting the initial connection seems to take ages. Experienced this in Kent and New Forest area. Anyone else having problems or is it just my device that is broken.  |

It's happening to me too, both here and in France. I don't think your unit is at fault based on what you are seeing.

The network status shows connected but the device keeps retrying it seems to connect. Just means pulling away from the house a bit slower before I enter the motorway 
Glad it's not just me. |

My XL LIVE seems to be taking about twice as long as usual to connect for the last week or so.
But, then again, it is probably something I have done that has caused it  |

| It's quite annoying now as I start driving and after five or so minutes I get the traffic info. Once connected though the connection holds. I can't be bothered to ring TomTom support, bad experiences in the past. |
