You don't have to have the GPS plugged into your PC for Basecamp to work. But you do have to have an up-to-date map loaded on the computer for Basecamp to work.
What kind of map do you load on the computer?
My understanding of Basecamp is that the Garmin GPS stores the map database on it.
That's why it has to be connected to the laptop to do any planning.
I used Streets & Trips to do the planning - it's far better than Basecamp. I create waypoints on S&T and number them - then export them to a GPX file which can be imported into Basecamp.
S&T cannot export the Route Planner :( to gpx - so the work around it to use waypoints which can be exported to gpx file.
