Switch to offline, "tile download failed" displayed on map... Turned to online mode it works... Network-Settings in modrana are on "unlimited use of network".

How to enable correct offline-mode?

Thanks!
I'm afraid that the only fully offline mode supported by modRana on the N900 was the rudimentary offline routing based on Monav. Tile display was always working with map tiles downloaded from the internet. You could batch download it, but that was pretty much it.

The situation is much better on Sailfish OS devices & on desktop Linux. There modRana can talk to OSM Scout Server, which provides offline tile rendering, routing and PoI search.
