Has any else had the problem that the ique3600 doesnt always seem to recognise when you have gotten to a way/via point. I am new to this but my unit seems to always be trying to get me to go back to a via/way point that I have already hit on a route, rather than get me to the next via point. Is there a simple way to see where you are being directed to on the route? (which leg you are on?)

The Turns application will tell you where your at in a route. You can set it to Qmap button and have it come up by a press of the Que (4th) button.

The other thing to check is: Show location on roads under the preferences screen. If you are selecting Via's or Waypoints via the map instead of the address book or lookup then these points might be far enough off of the road that it will cause this variance.

If you are referring to viapoints only, then there are some known glitches in the software logic which determines if you've reached the viapoint or not.
It works, or rather malfunctions, both ways. Sometimes it may forget that you haven't visited a viapoint yet, and sometimes it insists on that you should go back to an already visited viapoint.

Especially if the viapoint is on a dead-end street, or if it suggests that you make a u-turn after reaching the viapoint, then you're prone to experience this kind of problem.
