I was planning to use Calibre anyway, is there any way around this issue or have I basically brought a brick?
As @Sirtel that is a Kobo Vox which is an Android based device. Kobo stopped selling these a few years ago and dropped all support for them about two years ago. The latter means they cannot connect to do the setup. There is discussion on this in the Kobo Tablets subforum. I don't know if it can be setup or not.
