I recently downloaded the SE United States Topo from this site. I had no problems following the tutorial and successfully loading and viewing the map (I am a newbie to GPSr). It shows up fine in Mapsource and on the GPS but...
When I try to create a route from waypoint to waypoint, the GPS will only calculate using the highways from the Garmin basemap. It won't use any of the suface streets on the topo.
I have been able to create a route from Atlanta to Panama Beach, it was pretty much highways all the way.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!
That's what I was afraid of.
Are there any maps on this site of the SE U.S. that do support auto-routing?
The topo map is excellent. Wish it supported that.

LOL. I just had the exact same post in the forum, but for the Ibycus US street map. Map looks great on the GPS, but won't be utilized when I request turn-by-turn instructions. :'(
