What should I do on first set up, and can I force a software update.
The box will update itself during setup. As long as everything’s connected (aerial, broadband, HDMI) it’s pretty straightforward.

I don’t want to spend time setting the box up only to have it all undone by a software update.
The box will update itself whenever a new BT update is available for it (updates are phased, sometimes over several weeks). Shouldn’t undo your settings, though never say never.

I also understand you still can’t reorder the channel list? And still can’t rewind the buffer and record?
Correct. You can “hide” channels but can’t reorder.

The T1000 is a stopgap till I find a better box. Does anyone have any recommendations as to what I should replace it with?
The G4 YouView boxes (DTR-2***) are said to be a big improvement.
