Well - only if you (or some program) altered the iptables.
Normally, it drops all incoming (original) connections.

Install the Kindle Firewall -

Add an "accept" statement to the top of the chain appropriate to what you want to allow and from which device.
Our (my) firewall is structured a chain-per-device and any exceptions go in as rule #1 (each time an exception is made).
