I use Linux at home and there is no ANT driver, so I would have to bring up VirtualBox and then an old WinXP just so I could upload my Garmin data. I'll do it while waiting at the airport to come home. That is how I expect to upload my Garmin data after the Shamrock Marathon in another 10 days or so. Probably by a company that will be eating Garmin's lunch.ДЄctually I often upload my data from my Garmin to my Android (Samsung Galaxy S3) and on to Garmin Connect (and Running Ahead) using a connector and a USB2 (or USB+) ANT stick using the Garmin Uploader from Sportablet. Imagine automagically uploading runs to RA from your smartphone via bluetooth direct from your watch as soon as you finish! Why doesn't Garmin ditch ANT for a standard that is integrated into most current hardware? How about the Tooth of Blue or even the WiFi? That would be fantastic. Eric said the ANT sticks have a problem with too much noise.

My ANT stick only works with one usb port on my laptop, not the other. I can't answer your question but I'm not going to pass up the opportunity to rant.

So maybe you need to find it manually in the Device Manager and load the driver when it is plugged directly into the computer.

So, actually - the only problem is currently that Windows 8 does not correctly recognize the Ant stick when it is inserted and does not therefore automatically start the driver install process. The garmin communicator plugin also installed without worries. I re-inserted the Ant stick, set the Forerunner in pairing mode, and so there! My workout is now being transferred to Garmin connect.

> done - 'the device is working properly'.ДЄfter this, I removed the ant stick, and went and downloaded the Garmin Ant Agent, which installed Ok. right click, and 'search for the driver in internet' Then, I decided to have a look at the device manager, to see if the stick is there. I googled around for some help without success. After sticking in the USB Ant stick today, nothing happened. I upgraded my laptop yesterday, and switched to Windows 8 also. I'm not sure exactly what I did to get it to work, but this message from the garmin forums got me started enough to play around and get it working. I did have some trouble with getting the ANT agent to work on a new Windows 8 laptop.
