The first time, it was

--Load new Kobo update, have problems, factory reset
--Load all my books back on (about 800 or so)
--Do a wifi update with no problems
--Start filling up shelves, try to wifi update, update and device freeze

And this time it is

--Device freezes because of wifi update, do factory reset
--Load all my books back on
--Do a wifi update with no problems
--Start filling up shelves, try to wifi update, update and device freeze

Both times, it was after I had either

1. Filled a certain number of shelves

or

2. Filled a certain number of shelves with a certain number of books
I'm at work now and I can use the fast connection plus if I need to reset it just happens while I do other things.

I can't reproduce this. Last night I created a shelf with 334 books on it. The WiFi sync just now went OK. So, I created a shelf for each of the series in the library. That gave me about 40 shelves with up to 15 books on them plus the 334 book shelf. WiFi sync went OK. So, for all the books that have series, I added them to another shelf. That gave me a shelf with 334 books, a shelf with about 120 books and about 40 shelves with between 1 and 15 books. Again, the WiFi sync was OK. It did seem to be a lot slower.

When it hung for you, did you notice what phase it was in? With the extra shelves, the "Checking for updates" phase is taking a lot longer. Actually, I just tried again, and it timed out. While it was waiting, I knew it hadn't hung because when I pressed the clock icon, it showed the time.

Just so I know, what firmware version are you using?

I wish I could get my wife to do the same. Usually all I hear is "It doesn't work".
