Hi, just an update. I bought the klara HD to replace my faulty glo, been happy since. Last week I turned on the glo for one final time before getting rid of it, and low and behold, it worked flawlessly for some reason. So now I have 2 ereaders...

And I recommend using a new SD card. The cards in the Glo are getting old and a lot have failed. You can use a larger card, but, 32GB is probably the maximum that will work.
can i also have the image too, please?

And can you confirm which device you have. You have listed your device as a Glo HD, but, this is a thread for the Glo.

All the images I have are taken from devices after a factory reset. If the WiFi is not connecting, it is usually an external cause. If it happens after entering the WiFi password, it usually means access to the site the device uses to check the WiFi is up is blocked. Or, the firmware on the device is old enough that it doesn't support the current security protocols. The firmware for the Glo HD shouldn't have a problem with the latter.

For the PC to see the device, you need to tell the device to connect. When starting the setup, that means choosing the option to use the PC to do the setup. Again, if it doesn't connect, it use usually something about the connection.

But, have you done a factory reset with the image? That can fix a lot of strange problems after using it. It forces a cleanup and reinstall of the base firmware which may solve this.
