The good thing is that it will resume where it left off when you start the car back up, so I just left it plug in until its finish.

Hmmm, sadly my internet is fast, and the error never clears up. Willing to just leave it open for a while, though, to see if it does 'wake up'. Thanks for the reply.
EDIT: And interesting enough, the 'error ID' is different this time. huh...

The online "customer experience" has ranged from Strange to Awful ever since they changed from Mercedes Me, to Mercedes Me Connect, or about that time frame.
It doesn't seem to be a focus for M-B, but it should be.
I just refresh my screen, wait, or give up for the day.

Perhaps it was down earlier, but I'm not seeing any errors. Comes up fine for me in Chrome. Try clearing cookies and your browser cache if it still errors out.

Also, received an e-mail today stating that my services will be expiring in a month and it's time to renew. Not going down the road of I why it has to be this way; just don't understand a couple of things.
1. Navigation is $30/year, or $550 for lifetime. Why would I spend $550? Not planning to keep the vehicle for another 18 years -
.2. Map updates is $40. My data card shows "free map data updates for 3 years" I have 2022 GLE. Anyone else have this issue? Is this actually something different?
Thanks!

2. That's a print error. Used to be 3 years, but with MY21 or 22, don't remember exactly, they somewhat quietly reduced the complementary services to 1 year.

We keep seeing posts that voice instructions are only updated with a manual update.
I don't have any way to verify this, but I do wonder why this would be true.
I'll bet that most people never change their home region or do manual updates, so does that mean their voice instructions are locked into their purchase date?
Or is this just information from previous head units and no longer true?

To verify if the voice command was updated just check the map versions in the car. The voice command is listed there with its version number. I'm not entirely sure what this voice command update contains. It seems to be tied to navigation, so it probably contains data to understand new street names and such, but it also seems to add new commands. I remember that when I first got my car some commands didn't work and in general the voice command system had trouble understanding me. After a few map updates it noticeably improved.

Thanks, I'll check it out. I've never noticed a voice version, but that doesn't mean it's not there!
Regarding the improved understanding of voice commands, a lot of that comes from the conversational nature and adaptability of the mbux. I think.
At first I had trouble changing from "enter destination" to "take me to...." (I'm back and forth between my 2019 GLC and the 21 GLE.)
But after a couple of weeks of 'learning' 'teaching,' I can now say "enter destination" and it understands me.
That seemed to happen a lot faster than the next update.

I'm specifically referring to COMAND NTG 5.5 and not MBUX. I have the former in my car. I know the voice command system in MBUX learns and also has an online component. Like with Siri and Google Assistant, certain commands are processed online and not on the device itself.
