I wouldn't install anything else.

Problem solved, for some reason, IE was not default program

I was even prepared to buy another lap-top/tablet.
I do not agree to have the software running on 3 other computers, one of them exactly like mine, and for a particular computer to have to install extra stuff that can conflict with god knows what..

Thanks
Now it is working, I changed the °F into °C, MPG to L/100km, cleared the errors, test, cleared the maintenance sign...
Pretty happy at this point.
I checked it with my Iphone as well... no problems on that street.

Good to hear you have it running but do not be so concerned re installing another browser, only 10% of people using my 650GS technical info web site use IE, worldwide only a minority of people use IE, it is problematic especially IE11, using Firefox and chrome provides another method of debugging internet problems as they do not use the M$ internet settings.

I am very concern in adding more stuff to my computer, which, for ones, getting more of the space, second, a bigger chance to get in conflict with other software I got.
I am the kind of guy who aims to stick with what works, and the single reason to upgrade to IE11 is, I cannot use the older version anymore, google maps, garmin, contour etc, doesn’t work with IE7 or 9 or whatever.
I hate electronics on motorcycle or vehicles, and because I want at least to be able to know what is going on I bought your gizmo, the second one in 4 years
I travel in remote places where there is no phone signal. If I was on the highway for 200Mi per weekend I wasn’t care, call AAA and have my bike towed to the shop.
