Actually I could access the new SD Card on Windows. So I put a 2013 firmware (2.5.0) on it (instead of latest 4.x.) Like this :

And it updated !
Also, still does not work (but message changed, and I am not asked to setup the date, time area, and time)
Going for the next firmware (and the next, and the next ...)
I skipped a few and by 3.8.0 it connected to wifi, set the correct time/date by itself and FINALLY prepared an (automatic) update OVER Wifi. So I am quite hopeful.
Change in Looks is consequent, and I liked the first version of keyboard more..
Now I am at an unknow Version (due to previous automated update), where no Wifi are detected. None. Shit.
Tried again. Until
Version 4.13.x worked (
from 4/2/
2019) which kind of make sense now.

Early last year, Kobo had to remove support on their servers for older security protocols. This is because they are no longer considered secure. The problem with this is that the older firmware only has support for these protocols, not the newer ones that Kobo still supports. And it means that for the older devices, when they are factory reset, they cannot connect to Kobo's servers over WiFi to do the setup
