This section helps you estimate how much cellular data that each remotely managed device uses. These estimates are based on variables that contribute to cellular data transmissions supplied to DeviceHQ, such as the model, device features, frequency of check-ins, and whether SSL is used.
The following table shows estimated cellular data use each time a device checks in with DeviceHQ.
| Cellular data use during each check-in | SSL used | SSLO not used |
| Device only, no Wi-Fi | 3KB | 1.25 KB |
| Device with Wi-Fi | 3.5 KB | 1.5 KB |
