It’s not your regular WiFi
Pretty much it is “regular WiFi” with a few limitations.
I used it a few weeks ago - the announcement in the cabin was that it was a preview of the new service on this flight.
You’ll notice that they say you need to be a Delta Skymiles member. They way it worked was that you had to log into the Delta App (maybe the website too? I used the app) and then that device was given access to the internet.
You can use multiple devices by logging in each device.
CAN I CONNECT ON MULTIPLE DEVICES AT THE SAME TIME?
Yes. Simply login with valid SkyMiles credentials on the device you wish to connect and enjoy fast, free Wi-Fi for the duration of your flight.
You can use streaming, but they block video calling - I expect the latency from the satellite connection would make it unusable anyway.
