The free wifi was not an option. There was *nothing* in the scanning list. I couldn't see any hotspots, free or otherwise, secure or otherwise (though I and others could from their phones). I couldn't even download a book. The hotspot on Android is not an "unknown manner", it is a well known and understood part of the OS (it is disabled by the carrier on some phones but not mine) and one that I have used many times and tested specifically with the Kindle before departing my home.
At this point, I'm just going to wait and see for next month. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't happen again but we will see. I will be sure to have my laptop with me and will allocate enough time that I can do some more in-depth debugging.
One thing that stands out is that it seemed like there was a non-alphanumeric character in one of the available hotspot's names. Seems unlikely though. I'll give it a try anyway.
knc1, I'll definitely give those a try. I'll probably accumulate more tools on the kindle as I go but it's pretty clean right now.

So you are saying that you could find wifi on everything but the kindle. Now we are getting somewhere. It would help to know which Kindle Touch. Is it the one with a home button or a later version?
It almost sounds like something got switched off.
