Finally after over a month of order issues I have one of my T1000-E trackers. It was easy to set up and connect and I see several nodes. Haven’t reached anybody yet. I am in Canada but the location on the map still shows Shenzhen in China. I don’t see anything to change that and was also expecting the GPS would do its thing?!

I had set the fuzziness to 2km and it does show the radius and the pin in the general area (with in the radius). Why would send it the precise location then? I like the fuzziness. I don’t need anybody to track my exact location.

I was just explaining the cause of the fuzzy position, but sounds like you've already got your head wrapped around that.

Agreed, I imagine most people (myself included) don't want their exact location sent over a public channel.
