When I had trouble updating mine this is what they told me to do. It worked. Your are right about it taking forever. It took 12 to 18 hours for mine to download and update. See Below.
Thank you for contacting Garmin International.
Download speeds for large files like the Garmin updates can vary quite a bit. A quick high speed internet connection can typically download these files in 10-20 minutes. A slower internet connection could take much longer.
From your description it would appear this is not working.
This typically indicates the mapping is not currently loaded correctly.
This unit uses a newer transfer mode called MTP. Any newer computer will be able to use MTP mode without issue.
If your computer is a little older, the following may work better.
Although map and software updates can be done while in the default MTP mode, due to your issue we would recommend reloading the unit using the older Mass Storage mode.
To put an MTP device into mass storage mode:
1. Touch Volume on the main menu
2. Touch and hold the upper right corner of the screen
3. Touch MTP Settings (you may need to scroll down)
