How do I connect a Kindle to my wireless network?

To connect an Amazon Kindle to your home network you need to have a working broadband connection, a wireless router and you need to know your wireless network name and wireless password.

If you have not set up a broadband connection before attempting these steps, or if you are having problems with your broadband connection apart from connecting your Kindle, please resolve these issues first.

Before you can connect a Kindle to your wireless router you need to know your wireless network name and wireless password. If you don't know what your wireless network name and wireless password is, see What is my wireless network name and wireless password? and follow the instructions for your router.

If you know your wireless network name and wireless password you can connect your Kindle by carrying out the following steps:

1. Press the Home button and then press the Menu button.
2. Go to Settings by moving the 5-way controller down, then pressing the 5-way controller to select.
3. Select Wi-Fi Settings to show available Wi-Fi networks.
4. Select your wireless network name.
5. Enter your wireless password.

All you need from us to connect your Kindle to your wireless network is your wireless network name and wireless password. If you have completed the steps above, and you still cannot connect, you can refer to the Kindle quick start guide or Full user guide for further help.
