For Wi-Fi, you would be better off with making a key pair.
Get PuTTy and use its puttygen to create a private key.
Copy the key into an empty file with no extension called authorized_keys (or something like that, please see the readme for exact naming) and put it into usbnetwork/etc on Kindle (again , I can’t remember the exact name see readme file).

Then put the same key but saved as ppk on the PC and point the authorization path to it (for example, I use WinSCP on Windows). User is root, and password field should stay empty.
