It sounds like your host PC is Windows (because MfgTool). SSH needs to use the windows networking RNDIS driver. If you see a Kindle device, that is either USB MS (shared USB drive) or the fake (0MB) USB drive used to keep your host PC from powering down the USB port while the kindle is in battery-charging mode (usually a very discharged battery).
Beware that some modes like USB Downloader mode or diags mode may completely discharge your battery. Like always, fully charge your kindle before using these tools to recover it.
It is strange that MfgTool says success -- that has always meant the kindle switched modes, in my experience. Removing the USB cable can drop it out of fastboot mode (on kindles I used) so perhaps you have a flaky USB cable or loose jack on your kindle? To remedy a loose USB jack (on one of my kindles) I tuck the USB cable under it to flex the cable near the jack, forcing in good contact on the pins inside. Switching to a different cable may force USB pin alignment as well (different tolerances).
When windows recognizes your kindle, look in Device Manager at hard drives -- see the size of the kindle device. If 0MB, it is in battery charge mode, and you must charge the battery first.
