have a Kindle that I can't connect to the net and use its whisper-net feature because it can't find a Wifi signel near my immediate home area. The thing is our home computer is connected to the net by way of a router and I was wondering if I could use the info from the router and use it to connect the Kindle wirelessly. My nephew did something like this when he visited to connect his iphone. If I could do this how would I go about it? The Kindle ask for a Network name and a password. I think the password would be the WEP number on the routers bottom but what would be the network name?
