The Kindle Fire is definitely a huge success for Amazon, but not all seems to be going so well for this tablet as we though as recently a great deal of users have been plagued by all sort of Wi-Fi issues when using their Kindle.

These range from the inability to connect to Wi-Fi networks or not having Internet connectivity even after the tablet properly accessed their router or access point.

Users complaining of these issues have already started a topic on Amazon’s Forum which has gathered 182 posts so far.

Some of these have posts have mentioned that their issues were resolved after they manually updated their Kindle to the 6.2 firmware, but this isn’t guaranteed to work for everyone.

Good eReader reports that Amazon is well aware of this issue and that they are working on a fix, but hasn’t mentioned when this will arrive.
