WiFi Hotspots

SatCircle Wi-Fi Hotspot is more than just a Wi-Fi hotspot! Business-critical domains, IPs and ports can be whitelisted for unrestricted access both from the vessel to shore and from shore to vessel. Portable and private accounts are provided for each crew member. Individual accounts enable the crew to send and receive emails, browse the Internet, or use their own instant messaging applications - all on their own personal devices. 

Crew access may be through prepaid PINS or free-to-use allowances. 

Data usage control and restrictions can be set, to control consumption limited within the vessel’s prescribed package, block unwanted background traffic such as application and OS updates, DNS calls, etc. 

These restrictions include among others, daily or monthly time allowances, daily or monthly data usage allowances, domain filtering, white or blacklisting, and DNS calls filtering. The system can also be configured to allow Internet access only to specific instant messaging applications such as Facebook Messenger, LINE, WhatsApp, WeChat, Viber, Se@MeNow Messenger and HiChat.
