Is there any possibility to load up the v1.0.1 firmware on to the device? I doubt BN has it available through their website anymore, but maybe you can find it on another site to download?
v1.1 works fine for me, though I am I don't have any large reference books or bibles on it so I haven't tested it with any truely lengthy files (longest book I have on it is roughly 800 pages with the 2nd smallest font size and file size wise the largest is around 1.4MB).
I do have v1.1 zip file archived on my computer in case any future firmware updates break it. Hopefully it will allow falling back on older firmware if you load it on to the device without giving an "out of date" firmware error or something similar. I do occasionally load up stuff over wireless for new purchases, but if a firmware were to break the device and I could fall back on an older one, I can load everything up over the wire like I have to do with sideloaded content anyway.
Sorry that I can't be more help with getting v1.1 to work correctly, but see if there is anyway to fall back to v1.0.1 and then keep wireless disabled (it would be nice if they didn't force update to updated versions of firmware. I have a seagate FAT+ media player, and the latest version of the firmware breaks it as opening a folder goes from roughly 20 seconds to index/view the folder in the currently loaded version to about 4-5 minutes in the new version for a folder with about 300-400 files in it. Thankfully it doesn't force the update, but the home screen constantly saying "NEW FIRMWARE AVAILABLE" gets a little old, and hitting the wrong button on the remote on the home screen autoupdates. Thankfully falling back on the old version of the firmware is relatively painless on it. Which I have had to do twice (once because the new version "broke it" a second time because my son hit the button and updated it by accident (he is only 4)).
