Default External Speakers for the Kindle Fire

Just wanted to share with you what I just bought. I had been viewing videos (either from youtube) or from imdbfree.com and watching movies. The speaker on the Kindle Fire is just fine. But what does one do when watching a youtube video and the sound is LOW??

This does happen at times. And when I'm on my friend's porch and she's a bit deaf and needs a bit of more volume??

Well, I found this little gem for $10 at Walgreens.

Here you go.

Melody.

And I have a question of my own. Now that I have my tablets getting a wi fi signal from my new modem/router, I am thinking: "What if I ever get my hands on a laptop. (and I would have to use a mouse, because I just like them better than using touch screens on laptops. i have used my friend's and I can't stand using the touchscreen. It's just a personal preference.

My modem/router has 3 extra ethernet outputs. I have no idea why it does and what I would plug into them (3 extra computers)?? What on earth for?

I'm thinking that if I could EVER get my hands on a second hand laptop and of course it would be wi fi ready right?

Do I have to anything specific to get wi fi from my new modem/router? Or do I just turn on the laptop, it wi fi software will immediately look for the closest signal, which would be my own Wi Fi network, and BAM, I could go on the internet the same way I do with my tablets?

Is there a limit to how many wi fi devices in one's homes that one can use?

See i am still learning this wi fi stuff and if I could ever get my hands on a laptop, I might be able to do Ebay once again. I can never get near my PC because Alan is always on there. (don't ask, he doesn't listen to me anymore), lol He says it gets his mind off his PN.

So to put it simply, if I ever get a laptop I just turn it on, and I'll get wi fi on that too?? And do I have to do anything to sync it up with the modem/router????

Thanks much
