Hi there.

I'm a middle school librarian, and I recently purchased several Kobo Claras (BW and Color) to circulate in my library. The kids love them, the parents love them, but our tech department found out about the beta browser and is worried that students will have unsupervised/uncensored access to the internet.

We have tried using the parental control to turn off wifi, but students lose the ability to browse their Sora account for new books.

I am not having luck patching using the methods I've found on here.

I am updated to 4.43.23418.

Any help would be much appreciated.
