Please be advised that the NGS/CORS FTP server will shut down as of August 16th, 2021 and replaced with HTTPS protocol.
Any attempt to access the FTP server after that date will fail. All Waypoint products currently do not support HTTPS and will therefore be unable to access the NGS/CORS RINEX data automatically.
An update to version 8.90 for all Waypoint products will be provided that will support HTTPS.

Users currently using Auto-tune setting in their receivers should update to the new frequency automatically if powered up during the transitioning period.
