Can’t log into my tomtom account from GO5200 using WiFi connection (connection is perfect).

Vin49

I can log only if I connect my GO5200 to PC. What’s the problem?

The NAV5 (Wi-Fi) devices normally update using Wi-Fi...
Tomtom recommend a minimum Wi-Fi download speed of 30Mbps
Tomtom NAV5 (Wi-Fi) devices will only connect to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network
All the update actions are executed on the device...

If Wi-Fi is not available or is slow/unstable/unreliable.....
See Option... (2) Connect over USB

Hi @Vin49

Are you absolutely sure the Password and Account details are correct on the GO5200 . If so then any favourites on your unit will not have synced back to your account neither will you have been able to sync any Poi or Route files to the unit.except if it is managing that when you connect to the PC..

If you have not done so already then I would check you have the right Password by logging out and back into your account on the MyDrive website on your PC. If that at is fine then the next step will be a Factory Reset of your unit.

If your GO5200 has not been connecting with your account then non of your favourites on the unit have been synced back to the account so will be lost. Any My Route files you may have created on the unit will have to be Shared from the unit before the reset .

Any favourite, Poi and Route files in your MyDrive account from a previous TT unit will sync to the unit once it connects to the Account

Tap Menu
Tap Settings
Tap System
Tap Reset Device
Tap OK

Hope that helps.
