Your Kindle is unable to connect at this time

Question

Dealing with a new used K3 keyboard Kindle, it connects wirelessly and will even connect to Google for search results.

However, whenever I try to login it gives an error that the wireless network isn't available.  Might this be indicative of a hardware failure?

Can login to the cloud interface fine from a PC.

The error:

Your Kindle is unable to connect at this time. Please make sure you
  are within wireless range and try again. If the problem persists,
  please restart your Kindle from the Menu in Settings and try again.

the OS is version 3.4, less than the 3.4.2 which is required.
