Report excerpt part 2: App updates part of Levi’s Stadium prep for Super Bowl 50
Other than the Wi-Fi network, the other “tech” thing that really set Levi’s Stadium apart in its debut season last fall was the stadium app and its revolutionary services, like instant replay and in-seat food and beverage ordering to every seat in the stadium. While those two services garnered most of the headlines, the Niners are also high on other less-heralded services the app also enabled, Read More>>
Cowboys fans at AT&T Stadium use 4.295 TB of Wi-Fi during Sunday’s game

Niners-Packers registers 2.12 Terabytes on the Levi’s Stadium Wi-Fi scale
Given that Niners fans didn't have much to cheer about during Sunday's 17-3 loss to the visiting Green Bay Packers, perhaps it's understandable that they used "just" 2.12 terabytes of data on the Wi-Fi network at Levi's Stadium that day. According to stats sent to us by Roger Hacker, senior manager for corporate communications for the Niners, there were 17,876 unique users on the Wi-Fi network Read More>>
New Report: Green Bay’s Lambeau Field leads new NFL Wi-Fi deployments
When most NFL fans think of the Green Bay Packers and Lambeau Field, they think of frozen tundra -- of Vince Lombardi roaming the sideline in his thick glasses and peaked hat, with visible breath coming through the face masks of behemoth linemen on the field.

Buffalo on top of NFL… in AT&T DAS usage, anyway
These numbers are over a week old but it's still interesting to peruse the DAS data sent our way by the folks at AT&T, who found that Buffalo Bills fans (or at least the people at the Buffalo Bills game at Ralph Wilson Stadium on Sept. 20) used 1.226 terabytes of wireless data on the AT&T network at the stadium. Granted, the Bills fans in the audience may not have been thrilled at the 40-32 Read More>>
