I had big problems with the club's wifi last night.1

Wifi was bad last night (East Stand). Just wanted to check the other scores but my iPhone said there was no network even though the signal symbol looked OK. Switched to 4g.0

Same here. At one point I was forced to actually watch the match instead of checking social media!!4

Since the WiFi's gone in I just use my 4g and it's great compared to how it used to be. Probably 'cause everyone else is trying to use the WiFi.0

The Wi-Fi is of paramount importance to me because when my son accompanies me at weekends games he needs to watch Peppa Pig or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles constantly4

Football: English stadiums to get free wi-fi for some apps
BBC
England's Football League has announced that free wi-fi, for a particular set of official apps, will be made available at Championship, League One and League Two stadiums.
Fans will be able to access club-branded apps to get news, social media content, highlights and betting.
However access to the wider internet would not be possible.
The Football League said "the majority" of clubs had signed up to participate in the deal.
A full list of confirmed participating clubs will be announced after 30 June.
British wi-fi provider Intechnology will implement the service.
In an online article, the Football League said the service would "deliver the complete digital match day experience to supporters".
The free wi-fi would come as a boon to fans who had been frustrated with overloaded mobile networks at half-time, according to Intechnology chief executive Peter Wilkinson.
Having to use 3G or 4G services could also be expensive, he added.
However, wi-fi at sports events does not always prove popular with fans.
In 2014, supporters at PSV Eindhoven in the Netherlands protested against the introduction of wi-fi at their club's stadium, saying spectators should pay attention to what is happening on the pitch, not their smartphones.

I've been told 2 reasons why internet/wifi access is crap......Solidgone said:My phone provider is O2 but the coverage around the Valley is shyte and getting the latest footie scores is zero. Is there any push to reinstalling WIFI at the Valley?
One is because there are too many people trying to access it all at once. Do other clubs have this issue, if so must be a nitemare at Old Trafford etc
Two is to stop people streaming the game back to whoever.

Using O2 or 3 at the valley has always been atrocious. Currently with Lebara who use Vodafone and that is much better even on Saturday with 22k in the ground.0

I remember Birmingham having free WiFi last season and that would be used by bigger crowds.golfaddick said:

Maybe get relegated this season as smaller crowds in League One means better wifi reception.golfaddick said:
