USBnetwork SSH(terminal) on Windows 10:How I did it
It took me a few grumpy days for me to finally connect to my kindle terminal, so I'm posting this here to save others the frustration.
This carries on after you've installed the USBnetwork Hack 1.) Follow all the instructions on the 【TL;DR】 section of the link bellow then return here: Windows 10 signed RNDIS driver for USBNetwork 2.) Install a remote terminal application for this toutorial, that would be PuTTY 3.) Plug in your Kindle and wait for Windows to recognize the device. Go to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Change adapter settings. Find the Local Area Connection # with small text "Unidentified Network, RNDIS/Ethernet Gadget" below, Right click on it and click properties, choose the Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click Properties, click "Use the following IP address" and enter IP address 192.168.15.201, and 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, click OK twice. (source) 4.) Open PuTTY then enter the following details Host Name or IP address: 192.168.15.244 Connection Type: Others > Telnet (you might want to Save Session to save time latter on) 5.) Enjoy Observations: - SHH itself doesn't seem to work, that's why I used Telnet. - I'm not confident I could ever get in wirelessly so I'm tethering with a cable for the moment - USBnetworking won't let your kindle be discovered on the latest Windows 10 without the signed RNDIS driver Please give some feedback if you guys run into a problem or if you found a better way around this.

FWIW, it just works for me without any faffing about with drivers.

You can also setup SSH over Wi-Fi too! 1) You need to generate a key with PuTTygen. It is a part of PuTTy: - Once open, click Generate, move your mouse long enough to finish. - Whatever you see in the box, copy it to a file named authorized_keys , without extension, with Unix (LF) endings. This should go to Kindle, in the usbnet/etc/ folder. - Save the private key as a .ppk file somewhere on your PC. 2) Install and open WinSCP. 3) Kindle and PC should be on the same Wi-Fi network. Find your Kindle's IP address (e.g. type ;711 in the search on home menu and hit enter, go to page 2). 4) Setup a new connection in WinSCP: IP-address you just found, port 22, username root, no password. Go Advanced - SSH - Authentication - and select the .ppk file you just created. 5) Connect Kindle to wired USBNetwork, open KUAL - and enable SSH over Wi-Fi in the USBnet menu. 6) Remove the cable and connect! Because this uses a unique pair of SSH keys, as long as only you have them, this is a safe connection. |
