Map Download Fail

Re: Map download fails - WiFi disconnects immediately on Suunto Ocean
I recently purchased the SUUNTO Ocean and am trying to download a map for Auckland, NZ (where I am located). This issue is similar to those previously discussed.
I have updated firmware on the watch to the latest available.
I have good WIFI coverage via Starlink. The watch is connected to charger.
The map only partially loads then I experience a failure (yellow warning screen on watch “Download Paused”) after 5 minutes.
Any suggestions for a fix (or that I may have missed in other threads).

Guess we need to wait for app update with major maps updates, like offline maps. Syncing maps with watch is a known to be super slow (like hours long for larger maps) and has nothing to do with internet speed. Maps part of an app (android 6.7~ version) is super slow and sometimes does not load at all, so sync is problematic in app->watch part.

@prakalejas the maps are not loaded from the app to the watch.
Suunto watches load the app directly to the watch via Wifi. -
@Egika I had a similar problem when updating maps. The map upload continued at the office, then I went home and it was postponed until tomorrow. Even though the watch was connected to Wi-Fi at home, the upload didn’t progress at all. So I deleted the Wi-Fi network the watch was connected to and re-paired it. It then continued the upload from where it left off. Just a suggestion.
