The only reason I've ever turned on wifi is to install some Kobo dictionaries.
Before this update and the updated driver I was setting the series in the collections as I said here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...56&postcount=4

I didn't have any problems with the series' names, but all of my books came either from my local library or were bought from Amazon.

But I'm puzzled about what metadata is being used; it seems to me it used to be using series:calibre and now it's using Belongs to Collection; did Calibre or the driver move the series stuff to the latter?
