On JB Kindles - Wifi connection disconnects if limited internet access
I performed successfully the jailbreak on
I need to mention, both devices were registered before the JB at Amazon, but I after the JB I connected these my Wifi network at home, but limited their access at router level, so that I didnt complete the (re-)registration at Amazon again. The behaviour on the Kindles were, when they are connected to the limited Wifi, they are moaning they cant reach Amazon and are asking to prompt a potential captive portal (using the beta/experimental stock web browser). After it displays my router captive portal, I close the browser and it remains connected wireless. Then, I installed then JB Hotfix, MPRI installer, KUAL, KUAL+, GAWK, and KOReader. I enjoyed KOreader for a while, but as I wanted to check the connection to my running Calibre or later to my Calibre server (OPDS), I noticed, the wireless connection is disconnected (again). I had to end KOreader and re-connect the Wifi connection, where I also had to re-enter the obviously non-saved credentials. Then was connected and went back to KOreader and enjoyed it again. You can imagine, what happened after a while again... So, the questions are:
