Tomtom Go Premium Live services instable

geertn

Dear,

Our Tomtom Go Premium with serial number ZRxxxxxxxxx83 (0) seems to be unstable since a few months in its Live service.
This means that the traffic info and weather update is unavailable in most of the time.
There is a notification that there is no internet connection.

Sometimes it works and definitely at start (probably because it is still connected to the wifi).

It seems that the 4G connection is not working all of the time.

Please advise,

Geert

I think yes. Only Switzerland had lost 2G.

Hi Again
@geertn
(3)... An active Bluetooth/phone connection... 'Data for Traffic & other services' set to ON when using the MyDrive App on a Tomtom Live device ???

Is your iPhone connected over Bluetooth to the MyDrive App....
If you have selected the 2nd Bluetooth option....
'Data for Traffic & other services' ON.....
The Bluetooth/Phone connection will have priority over the GPRS SIM....
