It seems my device is too old to be accepted by Kobo's server in order to activate it, so it just stays in a loop of asking me to enter the date and time, then asking for my wifi password and back to asking for the date and time again. The problem appears to be that the disk image is not pre-activated, so will not work, and the server will not allow activation on the Glo because of its age, so I'm stuck.
Can you connect to a PC / Mac via USB? (I believe you might have to select the option to setup via Kobo desktop). If so, just manually install a new version of the f/w. See https://pgaskin.net/KoboStuff/kobofirmware.html and download the firmware image for the Glo.
