I have a kindle fire and need WiFi to operate it. I am looking for a router for this reason only and do not want any extra monthly charges like I would pay through Verizon or other wireless providers. I have Charter for my Desktop IP and want to run...

I am not expert in this field, I know only a little. We used this router to connect Windows 7, XP HOME EDITION AND A KINDLE. OUR INP is Clearwire (Clear) our cost remain the same and we can add another computer, etc without charge. I think your INP would determined the cost and not the router. Betty

I use this successfully with Verizon VZAccess Manager. This is a wireless internet modem and must be used to access Verizon satellite internet only.It used to be available through their "plans." They now offer 5 spot etc. I do not like those as they must be charged and the 2 I have owned, have issues of getting kicked off frequently. If you travel frequently I highly recommend this. It is always fast, ready, needs no charge and is PRIVATE! Love it. Verizon only tho.

Any wireless wifi capable device will work with this router.You need Verizon DSL now called HSI in order for it to work.It will connect automatically, if you already have their service. If you're not familiar with setting up certain features such as port forwarding you can call their customer service reps for further assistance.However you don't need to port forward with this device, but you'll need to create a device name and a password for your HSI in order for your Kindle to work. You have to copy that same information to your kindles device under wifi settings.Yes,its also b,gand n capable.Please check your settings under wireless setting to make sure its set to b,g or n.or all 3.Good luck.

I would not recommend this modem. It works on my laptop, but was very hard to set up. I do not use Kindle, but were I setting up another Cricket modem I would go for the 3G version (EC1705?) You will need to research this to avoid a huge headache. Good Luck!

This wireless router supports 802.11b/g/n connectivity. So, any wireless laptop should connect to it, including laptops that support 802.11n which is backwards compatible. Kindle Fire supports 802.11b, 802.11g, or 802.11n. So, the answer to your question is yes this router supports both devices.

The answer is YES there are Free Apps That will give you this protection that will run checks on your Kindle every week or two..The other four answers can be considered by there is always the chance that you may want to connect to the internet at McDonalds or another FREE site, Even at home using my own site I still would not use a Wi FI connection with out it. you are sending information through the AIR.

No, this is an HDMI cable that only outputs audio/video. Depending on the generation of kindle that you have, you can use this to stream to your tv or anything with a HDMI input. The newest generation of Kindle Fire's has just a mini USB output. You'll need a mini-USB to HDMI cable for that (Not used for charging). As far as heavy duty goes, you'll just need to be careful. I've used this one for roughly 7 months now and have had no problems with it. The new generation of Kindle Fire (HDX) doesn't require an HDMI cable because it uses wireless mirroring now. That means you can still stream and charge your Kindle Fire at the same time, but with one less cable. No, this is an HDMI cable that only outputs audio/video.

You have a choice with that. If you are ok with just having web access at home, then just connect it to your wifi with no additional fee. If you was web access/texting, etc available while away from home, you will have a monthly fee just like a cell phone.

There is no monthly fee for using this router but you still have to pay for internet service. Hope this helps!

I have the Kindle Fire 8.9 and have to use the netgear Push2TV to mirror it and it works great. I have used this for my laptop to connect to my TV and it also works fantastic and is fast with no lagtime between movement. What I did find out, is I need a new router for my wireless network though :(

You don't need a wireless carrier (i.e. Verizon, AT&T. T-Mobile, etc.) if you only want to use the Wi-Fi. But if you choose to keep your device on a network at all times, not just when you can find a Wi-Fi network, you would need to pay their monthly fee for the data services.

It is free to browse if you are strictly on your ISP WI FI network. initially I had to straighten this out with Tmobile. They haven't tried to charge since. Just make sure you Always launch using the browser, and not Tmobile (T) web2go

I purchased the model that is NOT connected to verizon, or any other phone company, but CAN connect to the web. So I use my home WiFi to access the web to use it. Others purchase the Verizon connected so that whereber you are, you can connect to the web. But my plan is to eventually get an iPhone, which will allow me to use whatever phone company I use for my iPhone to work as a mobile router -- that way I won;t be paying for 2 web-access fees, just the one I would anyway for a mobile phone.Hope that helps.

That would be the internet carrier for your device, just like with your cellphone you need a company to provide the internet connection/service. If you have a service provider it insure you have internet connection wherever that company has service. I personally did not want to spend the extra money, so my iPad just has wifi which means I can connect to any other service provider that's not looked. You can connect to your home internet if you have a wireless modem or wifi, also pretty much every public place you go has free wifi. Starbucks, McDonalds, Library, Mall, most restaurants and hotels...etc. Hope this helps:)

It doesn't provide wifi *at all*. This is a DSL modem for hooking other stuff up to the Internet. What you're looking for is a wireless access point (WAP). These days they usually come integrated with a switch (4+ Ethernet jacks for connecting things without wifi or that run better over wires - you may want this), and a router (key feature is DHCP, which hands out addresses to devices - you probably need this).If you don't have an Internet connection, or you do but you already have something to hand it off to other devices, you don't want this modem/router.

I do not believe so. It requires a modum attached to the router in order to get the signal. I suspect as you travel you can find businesses that have wifi networks you can access, but probably not on the road. Best bet with the Kindle is load it before you go and gets lots of reading or movies download before your trip.

If you want a free service yes, but their is other WiFi such as straight talk, at&t; go, etc that offer void. You can physically check them out at your local wallMart.
