Setting the GPS Mode
GPS mode determines whether the location fix is done:
Once (
“one-time”), or
P
eriodically (“continuous”) — used, for example, for navigation/turn-by-turn (TBT) applications.
To set the GPS mode:
1. Ensure you’re logged in to the home page.
2. Click Advanced settings > WAN > GPS.
3. If the Enable GPS check box is not selected, select it.
4. Select one of the following:
One-time — Use a single fix. Use this option if you’ll be using your device at the same
location.
Tip:
If you want to get a fix now, click Get fix now.
Continuous — Obtain fixes on a regular basis. Also known as auto-tracking. Useful for
navigation or turn-by-turn (TBT) applications (for example, driving directions).
