Help with a new GEB 1150

Hello all, new to the site so want to say hello. Now down to my problems!!

I purchased a GEB 1150 from ebay, it was brand new and sealed. I am having all sorts of trouble connecting to the eBook network. I have successfully updated my USB drivers and can connect to my computer fine. I was able through Ebpook Librarian to load a couple books on my device. The problem is that I need to update my firmware to be able to read personal content. Anytime I try to connect, to register my device, it gives me either a "Auto Connect: "

-or-

"The requested server could not be located on the Internet. This may only be temporary. Disconnecting and trying again in a few minutes may resolve the problem. If not consult your system administrator regarding "DNS Configuration""

I have went through all the troubleshooting information. Such as firewall and anti-virus issues and all is fine there.

I am completely lost as to what to do. All I am looking to do is be able to register my device and read personal content loaded through Ebook librarian.
I assume that the device is trying to find an Internet address that no longer exists (since Gemstar is out of business), but I don't know where to change the address nor do I know what the address should be. Please Help, I have this lovely device and I can't read anything.......

Thanks in advance for all that can help
