PW4 Paperwhite 4 iptables

ForensicKindle · 08-10-2020, 03:22 AM

Howdy all,

I have made some changes to my Paperwhite 4 iptables without first backing it up, rookie mistake I know, but here we are. Now, I have no connectivity with either WiFi or lte. I've tried restarting, and restoring them to what they were (using my obviously faulty memory)

I of course have tried Google, but I've found nothing helpful.

I'd be appreciative if someone could send/post the default iptables for the WiFi/LTE(4g) specific device.

Much thanks.

EDIT: I do have lte/wifi connectivity if that's a question you feel needs asking, but it will not go online

I solved my own problem you guys. For anyone else who gets in this situation, you can use the lovely kindletool written by Niluje to extract the firmware and grab the required files yourself. Cheers for that!
