BGAN Standard
High Priority Routing Service Plans

Downlink speeds of high-end BGAN terminals are up to 492 kbit/s and upload speeds are also up to 492 kbit/s - Best Effort as BGAN Background IP (BIP) is a contended (shared) channel. As with all geosynchronous satellite connections, latency is an issue. Common latency is 1–1.5 seconds round trip for the Background IP service. It is slightly better for the Streaming services at 800 ms – 1 second. This latency is mainly due to the great distance that has to be traveled before a packet can reach the Internet, but is slightly exacerbated by the back-end technology as normal latency over a Very small aperture terminal (VSAT) system is roughly 550 ms.

Larry F.

Had a satellite phone for a couple years and finally dropped the cash on an iSavi. Very happy with the purchase! Now I can connect multiple devices to the network and my own devices at that. It saves me a ton of time while working, it makes it just like I'm in my office with my own devices on the Internet!

Michelle B.

Bought one for work and now I keep it with me when I travel as well. It's handy having a simple hub to use and just connect to with multiple devices instead of being tied down to a satellite phone. No matter where I'm at the service is great, I use it a lot in the desert, between my smartphone and my laptop I haven't seen any issues. Thanks to Apollo support, I had somewhat of a learning curve starting out using satellite networks but they helped me along.

Yolanda V.

Picked one of these up for when I'm on the road and need to use my laptop and smartphone. The network is excellent and Apollo's support has been very helpful when I needed it. Now when at my work site I can keep in touch with everyone and answer all my customer's emails as well!

Chester W.

Use my laptop and smartphone with it all the time for work, awesome hardware! No complaints here at all, I've been using it for over a year now without any issues whatsoever.

Ron T.

This is one of my favorite devices, I keep it in my truck when I go off road. It's built very rugged and keeps me in touch with family when I'm out of reach for my cell.

Michael A.

Took one of these on a trip through Africa, what an experience! I love the isavi we ran all our stuff on it. It's pretty easy to use as well. After you have it setup you just connect to the wifi.

Rogers E.

I go hunting down under at least once a year and I alwyas take on of these with me. It makes it so simple to just use my smartphone. I haven't had any emergencies luckilly but really enjoy keeping in touch with the wife at home.

Mike N.

It works and it’s inexpensive compared to other sat wifi units but I had a couple issues connecting. After messing with it I figured out the issue but thought it might be easier. Since troubleshooting connecting has been a cinch since, though.

Gary

I use this thins off the grid all the time. If you follow the instructions it connects easily, just some things you have to follow.

Gary C.

Gregory M.

I love traveling through Europe, hiking and such. I really like this device for when I set up camp. I can check emails with the office and call my wife and say goodnight.

Henrick G.

The Inmarsat Network is really nice, the isavi seems to run well on it. I hated the idea of giving up my smartphone while on the road and this was the answer, great choice I have to say. No issues with connecting or operating so far.

Fay W.

Works as expected. Set-up is easy for tech-savy and doable for the less-experienced. Quick start guide tells you all you need. We use ours out a south-facing open window with no problem. The product is designed for easy pointing, especially with the free smart phone app. Be aware that this locks on to a geostationary satellite, which means the receiver itself cannot be moved around without losing the signal. The literature makes this clear, but perhaps bears repeating. The ability to link to several smart phones, tablets, or computers at once is especially valuable. Bandwidth is adequate for internet communication. Again, the literature makes this clear but bears repeating. Once fixed on a signal, the unit operates pretty much like any other wifi hotspot. You can change the passwords, connect devices, and move them around. Battery life is reasonable. Good job.

Robert M.

My partner goes off the grid every so often, I hate not being able to contact him. So, we picked up one of these devices and it actually works quite well, we were expecting some issues. We followed the directions and it turned out fine.

Sandy M.

One weekend a month we have a get together at our cabin and it's really far out in the middle of nowhere. At first we didn't really worry about getting keeping in touch but then my cousing mentioned that we should always have some form of communication. We didn't really need anything too overly expensive and we really didn't want to use anything but our own stuff like my laptop; I'm glued to that thing! The isavi has worked quite well it supports multiple devices pretty well.

Jermain W.

Great product. Other than having todo a firm ware update, it was easy to setup. I connected via my iPhone and also use ftp from my windows 10 laptop.

Southerton R.

This device is awesome I go out of cell range on long trips all the time and it woks flawlessly.

Glenn T.

This device is awesome I go out of cell range on long trips all the time and it woks flawlessly.

Stephen R.

Use this out hunting and fishing and on business trips where I lose signal otherwise. I alway s get an awesome signal with this, I can't use it on my boat but when we're docked it's fine.

Thompson V.

Camping, fishing, hunting, survival camps, I take the isavi with me to all of them and it has always worked for me without fail.

R Anderson

Going to Indonesia on business and I always check out the sites which takes me off the grid a lot. I picked up one of these so I could still use my smartphone. I didn't realize how this needed to be used, I tried it out at the bottom of a cliff with an overhang since I camped there and it was comfortable but was surprised when I could not get an attention. I knew I couldn't use this inside a building but didn't know about tall things in nature. Not a deal breaker, just more difficult to connect than I previously thought.

Andy R.

Gustoph R.

Random trips to Columbia keep my on and off the grid at random times, which kind of sucks. I hate not being able to keep in touch and I love my tablet so I grabbed on os these. Haven't had any issues and it's great for emergencies.

Mucho J.

I have constant business trips to Guatemala and I love my using my iPhone. I tried to use a satellite phone but really hated not having much for functionality like I do with my iPhone. The isavi solved this I take it any time I travel anymore.

Robert J.

I'm a private contractor that works all over the place. I don't have a way to stay in touch with family outside of my cell so I picked up one of these so even my cell would work when out of range of towers. This thing is actually pretty amazing! I run my cell, tablet, and even my laptop all at the same time.

Tender S.

My boyfriend and I love this thing, he lives in Denmark and I'm always traveling. We use our laptops to chat and keep in touch and the isavi works great for us. I've never had an issue with it.

Cobbs C.

Had a small connection problem, didn't know I couldn't be next to any tall buildings. After changing where I had it it seemed to work okay after that, connected pretty easily then. Only had that one issue.

Jim G.

I'm a traveling engineer and constantly back and forth to the middle east and home. I didn't want to get a satellite phone I really needed something with a wifi connection adn where I could use my phone, which I love. The isavi was perfect for me. I get my own wifi connection and can use my Samsung phone.

Nichols T.

Love fishing trips I go whenever I can. So I usually end up camping out somewhere where I fish, usually pretty far out. I have had some connecting issues and the only thing next to me was some tall trees. Other than that it has worked quite well I really like the fact that I can use my own cell it makes it quite simple.

Stan S.

My isavi goes hiking with me every time I go since I have no other way of communicating; I love my long hikes off on my own. This fits pretty decently into my backpack it is maybe the size of a standard laptop so it isn't too big. It is also pretty solidly built, you wouldn't want to make a habit of dropping it or anything but it still feels like it could stand up to a little abuse.

Roy G.

I travel all the time through the desert and my girfriend doesn't like it, she worries. So we grabbed one of these so we could keep in touch with our smartphones. Once we used it a few times it became pretty easy to get in touch.
