You can still use the wifi and avoid the download if you edit the "version" file (there is no extension to it, just open it in any text editor), change the "2.5.1" (assuming that's the firmware you want to keep) to "2.5.2".

When I screwed up after copying old files to correct a corrupt database, I had transferred an old "version" file so the download came in. It downloaded without asking, but when it came to installation, it asked if I wanted to install it now or later. I picked later, connected the Glo to my PC and deleted the update files and avoided the update.

So it at least does give you the option to stop the installation.
