Navigating waypoints on Zumo 350
OK, apologies in advance if this is a dumb question, but I can't seem to be able to figure it out. Let's see if anyone with the same device can give a hand.
When planning a route on backroads, I first mark a series of waypoints on BaseCamp, normally a few hundred meters after a turning or intersection, make sure they are numbered in order and then create a route using them. I then send the route to the GPS and then I should be ready to navigate that route, right? Wrong.
I go to tools - routes and choose the route. When I press "go to", the GPS displays a list of all the waypoints and asks which one I want to go to. If I select the first one, it takes me there, but once past it insists I turn back. The only thing that solves it is selecting the next one manually. If I select the last waypoint, it sends me there directly, ignoring all the previous ones.
So far, the Zumo has proven to be a great tool to navigate from A to B, but it is totally useless if I want to use it to follow a complex route through several waypoints.
How can I get it to navigate the whole route, from one waypoint to the next without having to stop and select the next one each time? Am I doing something wrong?

I often create very complex routes for my 660 Zumo, but I never use waypoints when doing so.
I use Mapsource but Basecamp is probably the same... using the 'Route' tool, I click on my start, then just select various places on the route I want to take, normally intersections and it works fine, (maybe a little tweaking but moving the route around).
