5. Enter the Wi-Fi password (if required). Press the Symbol key to enter numbers or
characters not present on the Kindle keyboard. You can continue to use the keyboard while
the Symbol menu is displayed.
6. Choose “submit.” Kindle connects to the Wi-Fi network.
Once you’re connected to a Wi-Fi network, Kindle automatically connects to it again whenever
that network is in range. If more than one previously used network is in range, your Kindle
automatically connects to the network that was most recently used.
Once your Kindle connects to a Wi-Fi network, that network displays “forget” next to it in
the list of available networks. Selecting “forget” disconnects your Kindle from that Wi-Fi
network and also prevents Kindle from automatically connecting to it in the future. For more
information, see “Forget a Wi-Fi Network.”
Add a New Wi-Fi Network
If you don’t see the network you want to connect to in the list of detected networks, you can
add it by choosing “enter other Wi-Fi network” at the bottom of the list of detected networks.

network name and password (if required).

select.
