Incredibly Slow Download Speed and I have a 400Mbps Internet Speed
Even though I have a blazing fast internet connection that is over 400Mbps and a high-end workstation, Garmin throttles their download speed to only 800Kbps and can take up to 45min to download a small area that is only a fraction of a USGS Quad. My typical gravel grinding bike routes take about 3 hours to download the birdseye view. My internet download is only to the computer.Additionally, the clarity is not so great. Most of the time the clarity is not good enough to determine if an old forest service road or logging road is abandoned and not passable or still in service.Garmin, if you are listening, please resolve this terrible customer experience and increase the speed or I will start using Google Maps instead... Why do this to your customers?Please note that I included my download speed test results that show my total potential, the actual download speed maximum of the Garmin Birdseye product, and the map of the area I am downloading.
