iiNet Outage in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

@Haydztweets @Jacko_GFreak @Telstra @Optus @iiNet Well no, some POIs have a higher capacity then others and it comes down to if they can actually support the speeds. If you're on a POI that is at almost capacity then the chances of getting higher speeds are limited, which is why people hit that 7pm slowdown.

@iiNet I’m a second year subscriber , I hear and I am mortified that you advertise on Sky news after dark ( I never watch Murdoch media if possible ) . A channel that supports child abusers ! Can you please reconsider your advertising $

I’m calling my service provider @iiNet right now. If they continue to support @theboltreport I’ll be finding another provider.

@iiNet Invoice number is 107396321. It'd be great if you're able to take a look into it as my VOIP is down too.

@iiNet No 1 in customer service... Have waited at home for half a day for a scheduled technician to show up and fix internet that has been down for two weeks!!! Still no technician. No information from you. One hour waiting time on phone. Seriously...

@iiNet @ii_cMay Connected at 7.92 down and 0.96 up

@iiNet is there a broadband outage in Bruce ACT at the moment?

@iiNet @ii_joshy Just got invoices again, same error, you don't even need me on the phone to resolve this. It's a clear system error with a documented history on your system. Do you actually want to keep me as a customer?

@jtparker72 @iiNet @TPG_Telecom Not with @iiNet by choice, sticking with their own FttN network in Canberra (Transact) for various reasons. But #NBN and alternate RSP is also a possible and if they don't take it seriously and increase performance, tiers, and customer service I'm looking for an alternative.

@iiNet @ii_joshy I have to call up almost every 6 weeks to try and explain and get varied level of response and no permanent resolution. Patient is going away fast

@alexonline888 It's disappointing @iinet are capping bandwidth up and down and moving away from an open bandwidth model. I'm still getting 40 down despite the advertising, smarter ways to ensure network resources are fair and efficient IMO.

It pains me so to hook up a new aerial copper lead-in for the @NBN_Australia "NBN" - but as they say, know your enemy. The other leadin is part of the iiNet Transact, which is a FttN parallel network. It has taken at least three techs and 2 weeks for this basic task...

@iiNet Could you please re-consider your ads with 2GB as they support and spread hatred, misogyny and violence against women. Thanks,

@wxllys Nbn with iiNet I haven’t had any problems since joining them, and have constant 0-5 ping

@Orda_CS @Telstra @iiNet @Optus Ive heard plenty of stories over the years of Australia getting less than adequate internet. I dunno why its such a problem.

@SilvesterSJ @markzzzsmith We always used to joke that iiNet was a helpdesk operations company, and the only reason they needed a network was to give people something to open tickets about.

@markzzzsmith @NewtonMark Interesting. Sounds like they somewhat achieved what iiNet always wanted. To be a sales / marketing / helpdesk behemoth without actually owning any network assets.

@iiNet We only use WiFi. We see the problems everywhere. The speed drops in the evening.

@iiNet The #nbn installation team was in my house recently. They didn't find any problems. I think there was less than 5 dB loss from the cable pit to my termination point and my neighbour gets 100+ mbps from the same pit. I am wondering if the problem is upstream.

so uhh, mad props to @mmalone26 for teaching staff/customers on @iiNet Whirlpool when major faults caused blowout Support queues. that knowledge has been useful lots of times over my life

Update. Well, we're still connected to the digital world but at a ver-rry slow rate. Nothing as nippy as good ol' adsl, no sir-ee. Maybe an update of the rather shoddy modem supplied by iinet might get things moving a tad quicker. Or not. A and I are only giving it one star.

@iiNet oh, u must mean when I rang to cancel the ADSL service on Monday, and was told there was no need for my call. I assume this was so u could then double charge me for a whole month, had I not been diligent and forced your hand.
