Cellcom outage continues to disrupt services in northeastern Wisconsin
Green Bay-based Cellcom continues to work on restoring services to residents amid an ongoing outage. Cellcom is prioritizing the restoration of "core wireless voice services," followed by others, like "voice over Wi-Fi where possible," it said in a statement on May 17. "We know it's frustrating to still be without full service — especially as we are into the weekend," the company said. The outage began at about 9 p.m. on May 14, according to the Green Bay Press Gazette. The publication reported the disrupted services have affected residents, local government and businesses across northeastern Wisconsin, though emergency 911 services have remained available. Cellcom partially restored voice services on May 16. In its most recent update on May 17, the company said it "still can't promise a timeline" for when customers can expect full service to be restored. "We also want to be clear: this isn't just about fixing what's broken," it said. "We're committed to fully restoring service and earning back your trust." Customers can check Cellcom's website or Facebook page for updates. Jeff Bollier and Ariel Perez contributed to this report.

Want to attend the NFL draft in Green Bay but don't have a smartphone? Here's what to know
Football fans who don't have a smartphone will still be able to get their tickets to the 2025 NFL draft in Green Bay. Entry to the draft, which runs April 24-26, is free. Most fans will only have to download the NFL's OnePass app, register, sign a waiver and show their phone at one of the general admission entrances to access the Titletown District, Lambeau Field and all that the NFL Draft Experience has to offer. It won't be quite so straightforward for the more than 30 million Americans who do not own a smartphone. IPhones and Galaxies may seem ubiquitous, but Pew Research in November 2024 found about 9% Americans do not own a smartphone. No need to worry, though: the NFL offers those without smartphones two ways to get tickets to the draft. More: Want to attend 2025 NFL draft in Green Bay?

Once you've completed the registration process, the NFL will email you a QR code that you can show at either of the two general admission entrances to the draft grounds.
