Cool Kindle problems

Hi folks
Just got my new 3rd gen Kindle with Wifi about a week ago and I've already had to send it back. I could not (with Kindle support) connect to my home Wifi.
I have an Apple Airport Extreme router and the Kindle kept telling me that the password was incorrect no matter how many times I changed that setting.
I had a friend who logged on without difficulty with his PC so obviously there's nothing wrong with the system.
I finally managed to log on at a free Wifi outlet which allowed me to download my books at least but I noticed that the time and date could not reset properly to my time zone, in fact it kept on GMT instead of Australian Eastern Standard time.
Hopefully by ordering the Kindle with 3G I should be able to download my books even if I can't connect to my Wifi.
Love to hear from anyone else who may have experienced similar problems.
