Hello

I want to connect Kindle3 to a web server to run some web applications on Kindle3 via intranet. It seems that Kindle3 tries to connect to Whispernet when making a connection to a Wifi router. Kindle3 can connect to the Wifi router if the router is connected to the outside world. But Kindle3 doesn't connect to the router, when the LAN cable to the router is removed.

Is there a solution to connect Kindle3 to a Wifi router which is not connected to internet ? It is important for my application because I want to set up a closed wireless network in a remote site and use Kindle3 to run web applications.

Thank you.
