The thing is, I have zero problem with the Night's Watch putting two and two together.
Look at this:
They're hopeful that people are starting to pay attention to their problems. I want them to know that Viserys Targaryen gives a damn.

-[X] Introduce yourself as Viserys Targaryen, King in the Stepstones.
-[X] I have always fought the enemies of mankind wherever I find them, from demons and devils, to hostile fey and even Deep Ones. And recently I have heard of the troubles of the Night's Watch. I do not doubt that there are monstrous things stirring Beyond the Wall in this age of awakening magic, but I wish to personally investigate what the realms of man may face so that we may all better prepare.
-[X] Of course, pay a fair price for any information and maps he is willing to give you.

We can let them know who we are after we solve their problems.
My main concern is that they will wonder why we are here or how we know about their problems when we officially have never been more North than Storms End.
This would then lead to concerns about Aemon, and they could end up making trouble with him while we are gone.
We can tell them after we help them out, to ensure that they see us in a good light and don't try and do anything unwise.

I mean, within the next week or week-and-a-half we're going to be personally visiting Aemon, and it's not going to be in secret. Cat's completely out of the bag there whether we like it or not, so it feels pointless to be trying to hide our identity now when we could be milking it for good reputation points.
At the very least it sounds like these guys will be glad that someone in the south doesn't just dismiss their pleas for help as exaggerations or outright lies.

There is value in delaying word of us at the wall. We wont be able to teleport while north of the wall. I'm mildly worried, it's the most vulnerable we've been strategic movement wise we have been in awhile. I'm much happier with revealing who we are after our business in the no-teleport zone is concluded.

Only a handful of people alive know Aemon's surname.
A bunch of brigands certainly won't.

I actually see it as more valuable that word of our venture Beyond the Wall spreads among the Night's Watch. That way the Lord Commander will take us far more seriously if he knows that we've faced what his rangers have faced. If you're worried about our enemies somehow finding out about our absence from Sorcerer's Deep, our friends are more than capable of holding the place, and most of our major enemies have access to potent divinations that would find out about it anyway.
EDIT: Also, huge fucking reputation boost. A sorcerer king heard the pleas of the Night's Watch and personally went to investigate, then upon returning drowned the Night's Watch in gold and supplies, and later with weapons and armor and horses.

We can Windwalk, or Dany can turn into a Dragon and fly with us.
We are still infinitly more mobile than any human.

As Azel said, better we can sweep away the trouble on the way back if there is already potential for it.

Yeah, the fact that this no-teleport zone applies to everyone is actually fantastic. It's hard for devils and such to even get at us here, and if they did we could catch them for sacrifices even more easily.

Except then we have to drag them with us until we find a convenient Weirwood, and then we have to bring along whatever loot the old gods give us.

It's the true north.
Weirwoods actually grow naturally there, not just as Goodswoods.

Yeah but they might still be miles apart, so it's still a bit of a bother.

They did grow naturally all over Westeros in the past. The Weirwoods on the Eye of Gods was originally a natural forest of them.
It's just that the Andals chopped down most of the population.
