We love the Amazon Kindle. It’s amazing to have the world’s biggest bookstore at your fingertips. But, isn’t it frustrating when you’re traveling and you can’t get online to purchase that recently-released book that you’ve been dying to read?
With Connectify Hotspot PRO or MAX installed on your PC laptop, you can easily share Internet from your wired Ethernet, 3G, or 4G LTE USB stick as WiFi, so Kindles and other mobile devices can get online, no matter where you are.
Start a Connectify Hotspot
Step One: Purchase Connectify Hotspot PRO or MAX from the Connectify website: //www.connectify.me/. Note: While there is a free trial version of Connectify Hotspot, sharing 3G/4G or Ethernet connections as WiFi is a PRO & MAX-only feature.Step Two: Make sure your 3G or 4G device is selected from the ‘Internet to Share’ dropdown. Icons next to each adapter tell you what kind of Internet connection you’re selecting.
Step Three: Give your hotspot a name (SSID) and password. The hotspot name is the network name that other devices will see and connect to using your unique password. Your Connectify Hotspot is a real, working hotspot that you use just like any other wireless network.
Step Four: Click the ‘Start Hotspot’ button to begin sharing your 3G or 4G LTE Internet connection with your Kindle and other Wi-Fi-enabled devices.
Connect Your Kindle to the Connectify Hotspot
- From the Home screen, press the Menu button
- Select Settings > Wi-Fi Networks
- In the list of detected networks, find your Connectify Hotspot’s name (SSID) and select it
- When prompted, enter the password that you gave your Connectify Hotspot to connect
There you have it, folks! Getting your Kindle online is easier than ever with Connectify Hotspot PRO or MAX. To get started, visit: www.connectify.me

Turn your PC into a WiFi Hotspot and Share Internet with your Devices
Wired in, Wi-Fi out
No router? Connectify Hotspot makes your Windows PC the router.
A Windows PC with a working connection already has everything a router has. Connectify Hotspot takes the connection coming in over the cable and hands out a Wi-Fi network your other devices can join.
Wired in Wi-Fi out
-
At the office
A desk with a network port and no wireless you are allowed to join. The Windows PC on that port can put your phone on the same connection.
-
In a hotel room
Older rooms still have an Ethernet socket behind the desk and little else. One cable covers everything you travelled with.
-
At home
A modem with no Wi-Fi built in. The Windows PC already plugged into that modem can hand out a network to the rest of the house.
Available for Windows 10 and 11
If the setup becomes something you use daily rather than once, Connectify Hotspot PRO drops the 60-minute session limit.
Free, PRO or MAX
Which version of Connectify Hotspot you need
The free version of Connectify Hotspot covers the setup in this guide. The only limit you will hit is the 60-minute session, and restarting the session takes one click.
Recommended: MAX adds Connectify Hotspot's Repeater Mode and Bridging Mode, which is what most people come back for later.
