Also, how does using MIB/AIO differ from the commercially offered services by some Rennlist sponsors. Are they just doing the packaging prep work and provide live installation support?

PS: My apologies if I repeat some previously answered questions, but after spending an hour reading the beginning of this thread and noticing several dead links to the mibwiki, I figured I would catch up on the last few posts and then ask my yet unanswered questions.
A wireless AA/CP adapter can provide AA connectivity based on CP which I believe comes as standard equipment on the 718's.

Interesting. I have a wireless AA connector. not sure if it supports CP too. I will have to check. It still needs me to plug in the phone to keep it charged, but it would be a good workaround until I can get AA enabled...

I am using the CarlinKit 4.0 as it gets USB connected to the PCM (wired CP), and that gives wireless connectivity to CP and AA for your phone to the PCM. (Please note AFAIK CarlinKit 5.0 will not support wireless AA on a wired CP PCM connection)

Just to let all the Europeans know: I installed P350 (= 2024) today and it is working like a charm (2023 718).

Default P376 for NAR now available.

As an update to you and others who may be interested, I reached out and can confirm that they have reloaded that file on MIB Solution, I just downloaded the archive, and it checked out as good!



Additionally, that the same file found on Mega.NZ is also good, I updated my PCM's OEM NAV database using this following file: P376_N60S5MIBH3_NAR_NT_Q3.23_2024-2025_02310036


Uploaded to the PCM today.

Yep, I can also confirm the latest 2024-2025, 376 file, even though the filename was odd, worked and took on my '22.

I can confirm that P370 (2024/2025) works for Europe:

I don't know how anyone got the 2024-2025 map file to download--the MIB Solution site is downloading so slowly, estimated time to download 1 week. Reminds me of downloading music during the dial up days.

Tried Chrome on Mac using the mega site link in the txt file and it's downloading at an ok speed. Not sure what happened but originally when I downloaded the prior map file in Sept 2023, I didn't have any issue in Safari.

Edit times two: now Chrome stopped and I get a message that I have to buy a Mega account or wait 55 hours to continue. Pass for now on a newer maps.

Are you using Download Manager? I did and it took about 8 or 9 minutes for me last week.

So did it actually say 55 hours , I downloaded a copy from there as well, the delay is typically 8 hours, but resumes ahead of that...

And did you try the Download Manager for the MIB Solution site, it is available for MacOS as well.

I did not try the download manager, no. I'm curious as to what happened because I didn't need the download manager before. And yeah it did say 55 hours.

Others did report slow downloads over the past 2 years, the Download Manager solved the problem even for me, I still use it. As for Mega.NZ, I found that it said 'x' hours and it resumed ahead of that time, still endured 2 pauses but just left that tab open and it eventually completed.

Free...is free. I am just very happy that these NAV updates are available, PCM3.1 with NAR database is very stale at circa 2018!

Mine eventually completed using the Mega NZ and the mega download manager made no difference--it paused out after 4 gigs, and overnight resumed for another 4 gigs or so, then paused again. When I hit resume this morning it finished. Not an internet gearhead but it sure seems like there should be a better hosting site with some bandwidth, but so be it.

This is what you get for a FREE service, you can subscribe to their service for faster and non-paused experience.
