VerifiedHello, I am Engineer John C., I will be your expert today.
You need to connect to your wireless network name and enter your wireless network password. The password XXXXX probably setup by the person that installed your router.
Case 1: If you have a wireless router.
If you have a wireless router, please let me know if you have a computer with Windows 7 or Mac OS (which one?) that can currently connect to your internet via wireless?
This would help to confirm your wireless network password.
In this case, please disregard the following solutions, and just click "Reply to Expert" to let me know.
Case 2: If you do NOT have a wireless router
If you don't have a wireless router, then you need one in order to connect your Kindle device to WiFi.
If you don't have a wireless router, you can buy one for just $20.99, click here to see it =====> http://goo.gl/v00qq
Then you will need to connect your current internet modem to this router and then you will have WiFi (wireless internet) and be able to connect the KINDLE device to internet via wireless.
Case 3: I do NOT have a wireless router and I do NOT want to buy one
Well, if you have a Kindle Fire you NEED a wireless router, there is no way to bypass this.
However, if you have the regular Kindle, you can follow the steps below to download books to it without the need of a wireless router:
1- Connect the Kindle to the computer with its USB cable
2- Click here from your computer -----> http://www.amazon.com/gp/digital/fiona/manage/ref=ya_kindle_sb_myk_button_css
3- Enter your amazon email and password.
4- Find the book you want to send to the Kindle, then click the "Actions" button on the right and select "Deliver to My..."
If you don't find the book there, then please buy the Kindle book from Amazon first
5- Then select your Kindle next to "Deliver To:"
6- Click "Deliver"
7- Click "Download and transfer via USB"
8- That's it, now the book will be transferred to the Kindle via USB cable
