XPS 10 GPS Problem

I've been using my XPS 10 Tablet for about a month now, and I love it.  Great device.  However, the GPS function isn't working properly.  It returns a fixed position that is about 40 miles to the SW of my location.  If I move around with the device (1/2 mile in any direction, and yes - clear sky in all directions) the lat/lon numbers don't change.  I see the same results with several apps on the same device, and all my other devices work fine.

- no windows updates available

- windows location provider driver is: 6.2.9200.16384

- QUALCOMM GPIO device driver: 1.0.1146.1900

 

Any ideas?

    Mine is pretty dead on when I am using it at my house.   The WIFI XPS10 doesn't have a GPS module - instead it uses WIFI location services for that purpose.    Is the tablet accurate when you have a solid WIFI signal?  Where are you located - rural or no?
