Hi folks,

I bought an used Kobo Touch Mini to try this weather forecast and play a little bit programming it with Python. It came factory reseted. Firmware version is 1.9.11.

The problem is, there is no option to connect it to WIFI without updating. It needs to be connected to computer in order to make it possible. But when I do it immediately starts downloading latest firmware which I don't want to have.

I presume the WIFI connection information is stored in DB file BookReader.sqlite, which is password protected.

Anyone knows how to avoid update and still connect it to WIFI network?

Thanks!
