Setting up an iPad from scratch

I received the iPad as a gift. Set up the time, date, geolocation. But when I log in to AppleID, I enter my ID and password, a confirmation code comes to my email, I enter the Apple ID password, then the code from the message and a white square appears on which nothing is written. When trying to create a new AppleID on the iPad itself, it writes that there is an error on the server. iPad version 5.1.1 (9B206)

With iOS 5.1.1 installed, you have a first generation iPad. The iPad1 is long ago obsolete.


Even if you resolve the immediate issue, the iPad will have little if any utility whatsoever. There are no Apps available from the App Store; iCloud services for the iPad1 are no longer supported.
