Internode providing free WiFi at the MCG

IT Industry - Deals

MCC general manager, commercial operations, Lisa Trainor, said the partnership with Internode had helped the MCC to improve the services it offers and enhance the experience for visitors to the MCG.

“We have worked collaboratively with Internode to ensure a robust WiFi offering is widely available throughout the venue.  It helps the MCG remain a destination of choice, not just for visitors to attend sporting events and concerts, but also as a valuable tool for the many businesses and corporate guests who use the WiFi service on other days throughout the year.”

Internode national sales manager, Daryl Knight, said the MCG wireless network would continue to build the Internode brand in Victoria.

“By introducing Internode into the world’s greatest sporting arena, we expect to raise the profile of Internode and the services we offer to home, business and corporate users.

“More than three million people each year, including sporting fanatics and business leaders from Victoria and across Australia, will now have the opportunity to experience Internode - for free.”

Knight says Internode’s MCG wireless network is linked to its national network backbone, which will also support the MCC’s everyday Internet access requirements, and to guarantee service uptime, Internode has re-designed the existing wireless network to provide redundancy in access technology.
