WiFi specs for Blackberry Bold 9650

I have a BB Bold 9650 WITHOUT camera because I work on a military base.  Recently, we've been told that WiFi devices are also not allowed.  The following is the guidance we've received:

 

What is NOT permitted:

Any device with a camera and/or 802.11 or any WiFi capability.

 

What IS permitted:

Blackberries, Bluetooth devices and cell phones with no camera and with no WiFi capability (such as Govt-issued devices) that use cellular technology like 2G, 3G or 4G.

 

I'm so confused as to what technology my phone uses.  Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

 

Thanks,

Laurie

The Bold 9650 IS wifi capable, but you can also turn OFF the wifi. However, the capability is there so that may preclude you from using the Bold at work.

Your Bold has Bluetooth, 3G, and IS wifi capable.
