The Kindle Fire, Fire, or Amazon Fire is an Android-based media tablet by Amazon with a multi-touch color display. Repair requires only screwdrivers and prying tools.

Getting the internet/wifi to work

My FIRE 5th generation has been in a drawer for a few years, and I want to start using it again. No matter what I do, I can not get it to connect. It continues to say OUT OF RANGE.

Hi,

What is the model number of the tablet as printed on the back cover of the tablet?

Try using the tablet as close as possible to your home WiFi router i.e. <10 cm and check if it detects and connects to the WiFi.

If so you may have an antenna problem in the tablet.
