+ktsmom Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I purchased a new Oregon 550 and for the most part, love it. I encountered an error message that says "this area has no routable roads" even though I'm in the middle of a major city - like Atlanta, GA. I was out of town doing some geocaching a few weeks ago in several smaller cities in South Georgia and got the same message. I don't understand this. How does a this GPS not have routable maps for US cities? The maps that are enabled are: OSM World Routable map & Worldwide DEM Basemap, NR. The stranger thing to me is that I live in a city about 3 hours from Atlanta and it works fine in this city. What do I need to install, change, or do to get this to give me a route. I use this GPS for geocaching only. Any help would be appreciated. Joy Quote Link to comment
+Walts Hunting Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 The basic unit only comes with main roads and streets so if you are on Peachtree and are going to an address on Peachtree you will get directions. Anything else you need the CN Navigator or teh 24K maps. Quote Link to comment
