Amazon Kindle devices with built-in 3G will not be able to connect to the internet using a cellular connection through 2G or 3G networks from December. This would go into effect in the United States, as the country only has 4G, 5G networks. So the users can only access the internet using Wi-Fi, devices without Wi-Fi support will not have access to internet at all. Amazon has updated on its Support Page that older generation Kindle E-Readers will not be able to connect to the internet using a cellular connection through 2G or 3G networks. The devices that will lose access to the Internet include the Kindle 1st and 2nd generation and the Kindle DX 2nd generation. The devices do not have Wi-Fi capability, they will be unable to connect to the internet after 2G and 3G networks are discontinued. However, users can still now enjoy previously downloaded content.
