I have a PW3 running firmware 5.16.2.1.1. I successfully jailbroke it using LanguageBreak. I have KUAL and kterm installed.

My goal is to use my Raspberry Pi 400 in access point mode and use that wireless connection to ssh to the Pi from the Kindle, ultimately using the Kindle as a monitor for the Pi. However, the Kindle doesn't want to connect to the Pi's network because it provides no internet access. Do you know if I can bypass this "feature" and connect to a local isolated network like this from the Kindle? If there's a way to do this from the command line, I'm open to that.

Thanks!
