That is not possible unless authorized_keys is a directory.

If it is like that, it is wrong. authorized_keys is a file.
The text file you have created: rename THAT with the name authorized_keys and place this file into /usbnet/etc
Ahhhhhh I got it. Ok. I thought authorized_keys was a folder. My mistake. I completely figured it out, got it to work, got the
"Authenticating with public key "Kindle_Paperwhite"
message which is the note that I put for the key.

It has an on/off toggle.

If you plug in the USB cable, and you see the USB storage area - USB networking is **OFF**. Try turning it on (with the cable unplugged).
Yes, I've connected before. I figured it out above.



Okay, with that done, time to read up on WiFi SSH!
