I had the same issue. I solved it by manually assigning an IP address (eg don't use DHCP for your Kindle), which is annoying because you have to enter subnet mask, which is fiddly.
Oh, first make sure you've got the 2.4GHZ network turned on, Kindles can't see the 5GHZ network.
IP Address: 192.168.0.99
Router/DNS/etc: 192.168.0.1
Subnetmask: 255.255.255.0
I have also changed the router's 2.4ghz to be 802.11g+b (eg NO "n"), and my password's length from 63 chars to about 20, and changed my SSID to be all UPPERCASE. But all up I'm pretty sure it's DHCP is causing grief.
BTW My Kindle connects no problems with DHCP at the local cafe.
