We are pleased to announce that the all-new Cisco Connected Stadium Wi-Fi is officially up and running. With twice the number of access portals as the previous system, this system was designed with a fan-first mentality. When you join us at SAP Center, you can access the new system by selecting "SAP Center Guest." Below you will find instructions for finding the network and logging on. Once you log in, you should automatically be logged in for all future trips to SAP Center.  

With any new Wi-Fi deployment there will be necessary adjustments over time to optimize the performance of the system. Our goal is to make this the best performing system for the SAP Center. We ask that you help us in achieving this goal by using the system and providing any feedback that you may have. To provide feedback please fill out the form below.

Prohibited Activities Using the WiFi

Any activity or use of the WiFi which violates system or network security or integrity are prohibited and may result in criminal and civil liability. Such violations include, without limitation, the following:
•   Unauthorized access to or use of data, systems, or networks, including any attempt to probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of a system or network, relay communication through a resource, or to breach security or authentication measures without express authorization of the owner of the system or network.

Network Management

SSE reserves the right to use a changing variety of reasonable network management techniques including but not limited to (i) allocating a fixed maximum amount of bandwidth to non-subscribers seeking to upload peer-to-peer files during peak periods; (ii) utilizing industry-standard Subscriber Traffic Management (STM) technology to temporary manage upstream and downstream traffic during times of peak congestion in a protocol-agnostic manner; and (iii) implementing filtering and spam detection techniques to manage reliable email sources and mitigate spam.

Spam

Users of the WiFi may not send any unsolicited bulk or commercial email or electronic communication including, but not limited to, instant messenger programs, IRC, Usenet, etc. that promotes or advertises a service, product, cause, opinion, money making opportunity, or the like that the recipient did not specifically request from the sender ("Spam"). SSE maintains a zero-tolerance policy on Spam and will take immediate action against users violating these Terms of Use.

The WiFi may not be used to collect responses from unsolicited communication regardless of the communication's origination. Moreover, unsolicited communication may not direct the recipient to any web site or other resource that uses the WiFi and the user may not reference the WiFi in the header or by listing an IP address that belongs to the WiFi in any unsolicited communication even if that communication is not sent through the WiFi or its infrastructure.

Users may not send any type of communication to any individual who has indicated that he/she does not wish to receive messages from them. Continuing to send email messages to anyone that has expressly requested not to receive email from a user is considered to be harassment.

Abusable Resources

Users shall take all necessary steps to avoid actions that result in the abuse of a resource on their network. Examples of abusable resources include but are not limited to: open news servers, open SMTP servers, insecure routers, wireless access and insecure proxy servers. Upon notification from SSE, users are required to address the problem in a timely fashion. Failure to address an issue after notification will be considered a violation of these Terms.

User Responsibility

Users are solely responsible for the security and misuse of any device that is connected to the WiFi, regardless of whether the misuse was committed by the user or a third party with access to the user's device. SSE recommends that users implement appropriate measures to secure their systems and these measures may include installation of firewalls, antivirus protection with regular updates, and regularly checking for and applying security patches for software and operating systems. Users should take appropriate action to prevent their systems from becoming infected with and/or distributing computer viruses.

Enforcement

SSE reserves the right to investigate violations of these Terms, including the gathering of information from the user and the complaining party, if any, and the examination of material on SSE's servers and network. SSE prefers to advise users of violations of these terms and any necessary corrective action but, if SSE, in its sole discretion, determines that a user has violated these Terms, SSE may take any responsive action that deems appropriate in its sole discretion without prior notification. Such action includes but is not limited to: temporary suspension of service, reduction of service resources, and termination of service. SSE is not liable for any such responsive action and these actions are not exclusive. SSE may take any other legal or technical action it deems appropriate.
