The Success Story

Open year-round, the supermarket located in Buffalo New York, is best known for its ethnic, old-fashioned shopping atmosphere and its iconic representation of 130 years of Buffalo tradition. To empower communities with better services, the city of Buffalo decided to equip the supermarket with free Public Wi-Fi. The city reached out to a local Western New York Wireless service provider, for help. After careful selection, the provider decided to deploy Billion M500 Multi-Service 4G/LTE Router along with its own wireless data plan to make the Wi-Fi come to reality.
