Internet in the stadium

Tue Oct 16, 2018 4:54 pm

Since the new Stadium opened I've never been able to get on the Internet at half time to check scores etc.

I'm with Three mobile.

Does anyone know a mobile provider where you can access the Internet on your phone inside the stadium?

It's just sheer volume of people registered to the same mobile phone tower. It cant cope.

Your best bet is the more obscure networks that have their own towers. Not ones that use other's infrastructure.

Unfortunately it's a common issue. There are apps where people share signal to make a giant hotspot. Or as someone mentions above... Use WiFi.

None of them work properly, it's the volume of traffic in a small area

To be fair my internet slows down with 4 people in my house let alone 30,000+ people in close proximity. Vincent Tan's fault
