3) I know exactly what devices are on my network as I've attached them. They are not doing any significant downloads.
4) This is my home network. Which is very lightly loaded. Hmm, maybe my new 1 Gigabit switch for my new file server is the problem? NOT!
5) Other updates with older WiFi gear came down just fine.
Ok, to be fair these might be problems for a few people. But not for me.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's blather that is intended to address a problem with how Kobo deployed this update. But I would like to qualify it with a few things: consistently stopping at 40% on a given device is consistent with what they are saying (i.e. it is trying, but failing to resume the download) and a new router doesn't necessarily mean that it is a reliable router since there seem to be many wireless devices that don't cooperate with each other.
