Hello everyone, I've been reading a lot of threads on this issue for the past two or three days, but I'm still unable to connect my Kindle Keyboard K3W to a router that has no Internet connection.

I have a Jailbreak + usbNetwork K3W 3.4 and using an old Lynksys WRK54G for a project. But the Kindle refuses to connect to my AP on a open network with static ip.

I've tried setting up a DNS server and a Web Server on a Win7 PC with the appropriate spectrum.s3.amazonaws.com redirection and the /kindle-wifi/wifistub.html website, both my PC and Android phone can use the PC IP address as the DNS and get the wifistub.html from my server but not the Kindle.

I also tried modifying the /etc/hosts file on the Kindle to point the spectrum.s3.amazonaws.com to the local device and started httpd from busybox with no luck

Any help would be greatly appreciated
