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!


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. :'(

I've loaded the US street map on my GPSr and they look great.  Problem is that my turn-by-turn navigation does not seem to recognize they exist.  It only seems to recognize the main highway preloaded Garmin roads.  Has anyone else experienced this?

Also:  Has anyone noticed that the Ibycus 2.0 version and the 2.01 patch are dead links?  I've downloaded the 877MB original file but can't update.

Thanks!
