If your device isn't registered, you'll see a Register option on this screen. Select Register and enter your Amazon account information when prompted.
If your device is currently registered, you'll see a Deregister option. You can select Deregister to connect your device to a different Amazon account. After you deregister, you'll be prompted to register again by entering your preferred Amazon account information on-screen.
If you purchased your Amazon Fire TV device online from Amazon using your Amazon account, it should already be registered to you. If you purchased your Amazon Fire TV device from another retailer or received it as a gift, follow the on-screen instructions for entering your Amazon account information and password.
To verify that your Amazon Fire TV device is registered to your Amazon account:
From the Home screen, select Settings > My Account.
If no account is currently registered, select Register to register your Amazon Fire TV device to the desired Amazon account.
If you would like to register a different Amazon account, select the Amazon account that is currently registered, and then select Deregister.
Connect your Amazon Fire TV device to one of these network or router types:
Open, WEP, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK encrypted networks
B, G, and N routers on 2.4Ghz
A and N routers on 5Ghz
Hidden networks
Enable wireless connectivity on your Amazon Fire TV device. From the Home screen, select Settings > System > Wi-Fi.
Make sure you know your network password (if required). If you see a lock icon, a network password is required. This password is not your Amazon account password.
Make sure your Internet connection is not down. Restart your router and modem to solve most Wi-Fi network issues.
Do not place your wireless router or Amazon Fire TV device in a cabinet, as it impacts your Wi-Fi signal strength.
Also, try this for Fire TV Stick:
Use the included HDMI extender to optimize the location of your Fire TV Stick. The HDMI extender can improve your wireless connectivity by positioning your Fire TV Stick further from the TV.
Plug the power cord into the included power adapter and then into a wall outlet to ensure the device receives enough power for optimal performance.
Still having trouble?
Restart your Amazon Fire TV device. Disconnect the power cord from your Amazon Fire TV device for three seconds, and then plug the power cord back in.
Tip: You can also restart your Amazon Fire TV device with your remote. Press and hold the Select button and the Play button at the same time until the Amazon Fire TV device restarts (about five seconds). Or go to Settings > System > Restart.
