But even with both devices live on the network, I didn’t see any data problems, and am pretty sure these Garmin and Furuno issues will only cause real issues on very large networks. There seems to be some truth to both accusations, but don’t panic! (And you N2K naysayers, please save your snarking until you hear the whole story.) Yes, as you can see on the table above, removing either of these devices reduced bandwidth use of a fairly large network significantly. You see, I’d heard that Garmin’s GXM 51 XM Weather sensor might be a bandwidth hog, and also that Furuno’s NN3D MFDs generate an inordinate amount of network traffic. ![]() Maybe you thought I was off drilling multiple holes in Gizmo’s bottom - and I was! - but I’ve also been toiling away at the lab’s test NMEA 2000 network.
