    Waypoints Not Sharing.......

    ......between units.

    My friend just picked up his new boat from another state. It came with 2 hds 12 lives. Now that its home he discovered iys not sharing waypoints between units.

    It was set up by the Ranger dealer.

    Any ideas what and where he needs to start checking?

    How are they networked? Has he checked the settings yet? I think there should be a file on the unit with the manual.

    Do a soft or hard reset. I was having the same issue and it fixed mine. RMP has a good video on this!

    Take it back to the dealer for them to fix, Have you confirmed they installed the ethernet cable?

    The dealer is two states away, so that's not an option at this point.

    Yes, it has ethernet connected up.

    Do they have an Ethernet cable connected between them?

    Whoops! I saw that my question was already answered.

    When were the Live’s manufactured? Do they have the latest update? What is the APP number? Are the maps and sonar working correctly via Ethernet?
