-
Candace Tomlinson (@aukuschampion) reported@EnergyWrapAU That’s okay, the NBN is the most expensive internet on the planet. The NDIS is the most expensive support scheme for disabled people on the planet. But Australians can afford it! Can’t you? Journalists surely can, why else wouldn’t they complain?
-
WTF-UCantBSerious (@Whoyacallin) reported@SkyNewsAust Can someone in your office ask Bolt to stop being soooooooooooo GLIB when he has a guest or is questioning and if he could piss that imbecile Steven Conroy He's a failed Minister with the NBN if I remember and is still an idiot!
-
King Neptune73 (@bartoni73) reported@Telstra @NBN_Australia when is my internet going to be fixed? I have been awaiting resolution of the issue since March 3, 2026. I have had 6 appointments cancelled because you allege you fixed it remotely! That’s BS!😡😡😡😡
-
Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@Thejimpenman Ask your serfs to shout you full fibre NBN Jimmy. That was under the Deposed LNP Crime org that ran up $850 additional debt, without creating one cent of legacy assett, whilst claiming to have paid down the existing $150 billion debt that took all prior govts 112 yrs to reach.

Drooling Drummer (@5BNylonTip) reportedBetween the NBN upgrade and my new drive, I downloaded a 10GB movie last night in 4 minutes! I was astounded. Came back with a cup of tea, prepared to spend half an hour or so waiting, and it was done and part way through another. On an unrelated note, **** Disney.

nbn® Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported@use_insert Hi there, during an unplanned outage on the nbn network we keep your service provider up to date on all available updates like estimated restoration times and details of what's being done to fix the outage itself. As soon as we have any updates, we'll let your RSP know. 1/2

John Cas (@moresunshine_1) reported@eevblog I had a client - I/net not working. Discovered it was the whole building. 2 NBN tech, different calls: we can't fix it. I got the building mgt to show me the "gear" in the basement room. The power supply was cold. Checked power board. We flicked a breaker on that was off. Win!
-
💧☘️Rhona - Bluesky: rhonae (@bensab3) reported@james00000001 Yes, and another good reference would be the NBN! Oh, Gonski,NDIS 1 Labor introduces excellent policies to assist, costed7designed - lies&falseScareCampaigns getCoalition elected&immediately they tear down/interfere &alter, to point the policy fails and they happily blame Labor
-
Loftwah (@loftwah) reported@QdenisT @AshPolitik Or the fact that what Abbott and Turnbull did with the NBN crippled the future of our entire generation at the most critical time to the point they should be thrown behind bars. That will and should never ever be forgotten or forgiven ever.
-
Dave Jones (@eevblog) reportedI found out what the problem was, the entire building is down. NBN backbone issue, so it's not the ISP. Found a guy in the building that runs a mobile repeater business for buildings like this and he has official contacts with Telstra who say it's going to be down for the whole long weekend. Everyone in the building is struggling with phone access. He's going to put a proposal into strata (handily, that's me!) to install mobile repeaters in the building and also the basement carpark. I said I'll approve it.
-
OptoIsolated IO (@optoio) reported@eevblog Yeh its almost never the ISP. it's almost always the NBN. No opportunity for whipping up a Starlink on the roof? :P
-
Salvator Mundi (@thelostleonardo) reported@EnergyWrapAU NBN generates revenue and pays down its costs over time. How can you compare that to NDIS which is a huge ongoing cesspool of fraud and waste.
-
Communal Noodle (@Communal_Noodle) reported@eevblog @Aussie_BB NBN = No Bloody Network.
-
Alexandra Online 💅 (@AlexandraOn1ine) reportedSTILL NO WIFI T-T I called my provider and their solution was.... wait for the nbn to do their thing 🥹

-
Darren (@DoodyDarren) reported@DryFarmer24 @EnergyWrapAU No subsidies are involved. Underwriting, yes. Its government owned, so what ******** do you expect? NBN is its own commercial entity, underwritten by its owners. How is that anything but normal?
-
Ezzeddine | عزالدين (@ezzh_) reported@m1nhaxo That’s garbage in a family household lol nbn is so terrible
-
Dave Jones (@eevblog) reportedNBN Update: "Cable works are progressing. The fibre cable was installed between the two manholes early this morning and the site has been made safe. Due to traffic control requirements, work has temporarily paused and will recommence under day Road Occupancy Licences between 10:00am and 2:00pm. Cable preparation works began earlier at 3:30am, with splicing scheduled to commence this afternoon. Customer restoration is expected to be completed later today. NBN will continue to monitor progress and provide further updates as they become available."

ronnymouse (@ronnymouse7) reported@eevblog this is why we have a fixed wireless connection as a backup, the NBN backbones they're connected to rarely go down
-
Darren (@DoodyDarren) reported@comical_engr @EnergyWrapAU And the NDIS was created only a couple of months before the Abbott government was elected. The NBN had actually reached target per premises cost just as Abbott/Turnbull “paused” it. Their MTM system was ******** up.
-
Jobson Growthe (@ShowerCapAM) reported@ASX1500 how **** was your nbn connection and why?
-
Some Bloke in Oz (@Someozbloke) reported@alreadyfurious @deniseshrivell Ive never had an issue with Starlink and weather...yes latency slowness...i also have had more outages with NBN than starlink.
-
Pilot Beacon (@pilotbeaconhere) reported@AlboMP NBN increases that you made, are costing us an extra 300 dollars a year. Forcing us to consume an internet that you can charge more for at any moment is an extrotion racket. I hope you fix this asap. Any mandatory expectation should be met with free service or cheap rates.
-
Econo ad absurdam (@econoadabsurdam) reportedWhen the ALP talks up something like the NDIS or the NBN and says that it will help increase productivity, what do you think they mean
-
Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reportedWow... #Starlink have dropped their price to around 1/10th of what it was, to try to attract customers in Australia, who are mainly, of course, on the #NBN. And for the first four months it's even cheaper than that, during their current promotion. Just a shame it's so slow.
-
zagundo (@zagundo) reported@NBN_Australia can we please get an update on the ongoing outage affecting Paddington, NSW, 2021? Has been over 24 hours now.
-
CryptoVegeta 🟠 NFTARMY (@opieaccount4) reported@TMFScottP I was a gamer and hated ADSL living outside of a state capital it was ****. NBN to me personally would have been great, but blowing that money that money on shortsighted populism didnt sit well with me. Seemed shortsighted.
-
Ryan Emery (@ryanremery) reported@VodafoneAU And, of course, @VodafoneAU is claiming they have to wait 24hrs for my "service number" to change before I can get the FTTP I requested 2 weeks ago. @NBN_Australia says it hasn't received a modification request. Today or 2 weeks ago. Time for the ombudsman.

Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@Qldaah If only Media Militia had gone Full Fibre to the cesspit, instead of opting for snail paced Copper NBN, they'd know that "discovery" was only a new find, mid last century & rejected as unviable, of poor quality & limited in supply.
