I have just reinstalled Navigator 3 & updates onto my ipaq 2210 - along with my Bluetooth receiver.

I can pair up the bluetooth, but cannot get it to talk to me ipaq.

I conect, but status show 0 bytes sent & received - and the software says no gos available.

The gps shows in outgoing connections, but not in incoming, and then disappears after a while.

Any suggestions?

Also, not showing in GPS part of Navigator. What should the settings be in the 2nd page (i.e. type & connection?)

Thanks

Lee

I also have this setup and it seems a little tempremental. I have also uploaded the two tomtom updates, but i still seem to get the message "GPS position unreliable" every 20 mins or so and the system locks up. Does anyone have any suggestions?

My GPS setup is
TomTom Wireless GPS and
Bluetooth Serial Port COM8
Should I have it set to
NMEA0183v2 Bletooth?

Rob - Like yours, mine is unreliable.

When it is running, it is fine (I did a 230 mile trip today, it started fine and worked well). However, coming home, it would not find the GPS signal at all. Eventually, I did a reset, which seemed to work, but again tonight, no GPS.

Yep, that does sound similar to mine. It can get quite frustrating really, as I'm not sure if this is meant to happen on long journeys. After a reset it seems to be ok again, which leads me to think that it could be something to do with the h2210's memory. But then again it could be a faulty expansion card, TT3 software, BT reciever etc???

Turn off the option to "Show POIs". You can still navigate to them and CheckPOInt will still still warn against; you just don't want to display them. This solved problem for me and many others.
