BlackBerry services that are available over Wi-Fi
connections
For more information about supported services and features, contact your organization's wireless service provider. Not all BlackBerry® data plans support Wi-Fi®
access to BlackBerry data services.
When you configure a Wi-Fi
network to open a connection (with or without a VPN connection) to the BlackBerry Router, you can
keep all data transfers entirely within the enterprise Wi-Fi
network and reduce the routing required.
