This is the improved model, Ultra(?), which also has ethernet. The cable
would connect to the power supply, so the power cable carries the signal
to the device. But I do not have an ethernet socket free at the moment,
I may need to place a switch there.

The instructions mention that BT is needed for apple phones.
The setup process requests location to be activated.

Anyway, the setup process is surprisingly easy.
