When jailbreaking this device...
  1. Should I register the device before attempting to jailbreak it?
  2. Should I manually update the FW to 5.16.2.1.1 prior to attempting to jailbreak it?
  3. If I should update the FW, should the FW be updated before registering? or after?

I appreciate any assistance in answering these questions.
1. Better not to register it as you may inadvertently update it to FWs which are not jailbreakable while being online.
2. Yes, it is advisable to do this.
3. Before registering. Then you can jailbreak and finally register.
