Might the Fire only have 2.4GHz wifi and the Airport Express be set to 5GHz?

Just a thought, as a $99 Android tablet I purchased has that limitation.  Otherwise, it was well worth the $99.

I bought a Fire when Amazon had a sale for $35. I keep it as a back up to my iPad. Works great.

I tested my fire with two different Airport Express and it saw both the 2.4 and 5GHz on both.  Not sure why yours won’t see the Airport Express Debbie.

We use MixStation Pro with a Samsung Galaxy Tab E...no problems in 2 years or so.

The Airport Express offers either and we tried them individually too.

Me neither.... the singer didn't hand the device to me so I should probably insist on me having a go....

Wish I could give you more to go on. I’ve never had a problem connecting to any of my Airports.
I have had problems connecting to <cheap wireless router Staples had on sale that day> models.

I bought an amazon fire it is the HD 8 (7th Generation) no ads. I think the newest version it can update to is Fire OS 5.3.6.4. I wish I had just bought a Samsung equivalent size table. It seems like the fire really wants to see the internet to work. So the trick to get it working with Mixing station has to do with getting it to try and connect to the mixer before it rejects the network because it doesn't see the internet on it. This is tricky to make it happen but it seems like if you get it to work once it works most of the times after that. If you click on  Connect in Mixing Station and it doesn't almost instantly start to sync or download the data from Mixing station is isn't working.

I still wish I had bought a Samsung tablet.

Another vote for Nexus 7 v2, as far as tiny ones go. I have several to hand out to people with in-ears.

Whatever you get, make sure it does 5 gHz wifi.

Stay away from the Nook. Looks good on paper, but I've found them to have terrible touch registration.
