Data Network
- At 2.4 Kilobits per second, the Iridium Go! is not a solution to those looking for a workable connection for normal Internet use. Email attachments of any size will take minute or hours to transfer, and a single webpage would take 5 to 10 minutes to load. Connectivity to the Internet with the Iridium Go should be considered an emergency backup solution.
- The Iridium Go! allows up to 5 connected devices, however, this would create a bottleneck. Applications like SMS text messaging and text-only email messages (using their email app), use fewer data and can still be used.
Usage Control Features
- Smartphone connectivity must go through specialized Email or Internet Apps
- Firewall controls to avoid runaway data charges
Interfaces
- Wi-Fi Range is 100′ or 30.5 meters for up to 5 devices
