Kindle Paperwhite connection glacially slow.
I have several Kindles including a 6th and a 7th generation Paperwhite. Recently they have become almost unusable for downloading books I own from Amazon. Typical symptom is that a book will show as 'queued', then sit in that state for a while (minutes to hours) then disconnect from wifi. If the stars are aligned, it will alternate between 'queued' and 'downloading' for a while (tens of minutes), then either lose connection or complete. Attempting to connect to the store fails - 'not available'.
Trying to push downloads from my Amazon account to the kindles fails silently.
I've tried just about everything I've googled - including completely resetting and re-registering one of them.
I have an excellent wifi setup - speedtests from co-located devices via wifi show 200 Mbit/sec downloads, and I have no problems with other connected devices. I even rebooted my router. When connected the wifi symbol on the Paperwhites always shows all bars.
Ideas?
