Hi everyone!

I'm a student, and my college has a wonderful Wi-Fi network which I normally access with my college username and password. However I was dismayed to find that my Kindle refuses to connect to "enterprise" or "peer-to-peer" networks.

It has no problem connecting to regular home networks, as I was able to use the one at my parents house which I visited over Christmas.

Does anyone know of a way around this? It would mean that I have effectively no Wi-Fi, as I normally get all of my internet use through the college network. I don't want to pay an extra £20 a month to install Wi-Fi in my own home, just for the sake of the Kindle.

Thanks in advance!
