Updates For Life Questionable
This device was very good up until 2017 when it did not update correctly,
For example it still tells me that there is a 50 mile limit 2 years after it was removed and although I update every month it has yet to tell me where any cameras are on the motorways.
I have sent a number of e-mails to this company Microfuzion but they do not ever reply.
Impossible To Update
at first i thought this was the real deal but trying to update this unit is impossible waste of money i would not recommend this speed detector to anyone tried emailing company never ever had a reply absolutely useless

Good System But Poor Retailer.
The camera detection system works very well, but although I can download the updating utility on Windows 7, it simply does not work, just shows as error. Trying to get help from the company is a waste of time, they simply ignore any communication attempt. Basically, they are conning the public with claims of free updates as they never succeed, at least not for me and apparently many others. Would be a really great product if marketed responsibly.

Download Issues
I have had problems with updates on my device. I could only contact them if I put in a new sales enquiry!! My device was registered. Asked to download the software update again, which I did. It has not updated the Cameras etc. It still picks up Average speed cameras that have gone over 4 months ago in a few places.
The Device is great, simple and cost effective. But the Camera updates are critical

Microfuzion Win7 Device Drivers
I bought my Microfuzion about 4 years ago and have found it to be pretty useful. The database of roadwork cameras is poor - out of date but all others seem to be OK. I drive through France and Spain on a regular basis and the database for these countries is very good and much needed!!
For what it costs and with the 'free' updates I am quite happy with my decision to buy it.
The big problem came when I updated from WinXP to Win7 and then found the Microfuzion tech support just wasn't there - useless. However, I found the software needed on the TRENDnet website and I include the link to their site - http://www.trendnet.com/downloads/list_subcategory.asp?SUBTYPE_ID=571#
The new driver installed no problems and the downloads from Microfuzion are now working again.
Not an ideal way to have to sort out the problem but 'hey ho'sometimes you just have to work around these things.
If anyone knows how to change the time setting from GMT to CET (+1 hour) I would be pleased to hear from you!
I believe the database is no longer being updated and hasn't been for some time- wherever it is. This means the data downloaded is no different to that already stored in the detector - waste of time.
I gave up using the Microfuzion because of the same problems you are experiencing which is a real shame but as they say - nothing stays the same!
I have the problem that the downloads do not update my Device. Reload
ed the Utility software, checked Device is registered, it still shows average speed cameras when they went 6 months ago in a few areas!
Absolutely brilliant review, I could not update my Fuzion Express until I read this review today, now updated and working well, Thank you.

I have had a Micro Fuzion Camera detector for about four years and it will NOT update with Windows 7 but will update on Windows XP computers.
I have tols them about this but it is impossible to get any help or feedback from their customer servicves
Having said that I thinki the product is very good and I have ordered the Mirror camera detector for Christmas.
I too have had this problem with windows 7, contacted microfuzion who replied very quickly with a useless link, however they provided a troubleshooter that by uniinstalling and plugging in the device ( after a few goes) opens up a prolific driver installer. how I got to it defeats me. however I unzipped it reloaded the software update tool, plugged in the device and hey presto. All Ok.

Had For 5 Years And Now Have Not Been Able To Upda
Had for 5 years and now have not been able to update for over a year. Tried contating company just a blank wall. So although a good unit, no use if it wont update. Go else where.
I had a similar problem with Windows 7 64bit, so I used the compatibility mode in 7 and used Windows XP (Service Pack 2) it now updates with know problems at all, it is a great product. Give it a go it worked for me.

Just Purchased This Microfuzion Direct From There
Just purchased this Microfuzion direct from there site. Cant get it to download anything. After reading these reviews it is most probably because i am on Windows 7. It only reads in Kilometers and I wrote to the company and received a broken english letter stating that I have to download to get it to read in MPH. Considering I cant download anything (as not compatable) it is completely useless to me. I am going to borrow another laptop that is using XP so watch this space. I am so frustrated I really want to send it back, but would I ever get my money back????? If you are on windows 7 DONT BUY....
Could not agree more with this review. I have spent over £100 on a unit which cannot be updated and from a company which ignores all atempts to contact them to resolve the problem.
Do not waste your money.

I Bought One Of These, From A Shop, About 5 Years
I bought one of these, from a shop, about 5 years ago, really fantastic, so I bought 2 more. 1 came with wrong power lead, no response from company, 2nd shows wrong speed so continually tells me am over speed limit. Again no reply from company, buying direct is really cheap however, from last 2 purchases (about £200) the lack of response means I WOULD NOT recommend or buy from them again.
Q&A
Why can I not update my device shows v2013 which I assume means version year 2013?
I have updated one of my Microfuzion GPS detectors which is okay, but my other one is only displaying '2 5'. I have re-tried 6 times but to no avail.
How can I resolve the problem? Any help greatly appreciated.
Update - The display showed '2 5' with 4 spaces between the 2 and the 5.
Since then it started displaying loads of Icons and gave out loads of messages one after the other, none of which related to the current road location and then reverted to displaying the correct speed. it then reset itself and went through the jumbled messages again.
Somehow I think it needs 'Zapping' to remove the stored info and then 'Updating' again.
Any thoughts anyone.
