NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Boxy (@BoxofPies80) reported@Telstra NBN down for second time in two weeks……
-
Max Revelation (@MaximilPlan3t) reported@GregNordo @AllBiteNoBark88 I just had another go with Optus. Literally no internet during peak hrs. Their NBN is unbelievably bad, even my business plan was dropping out 20 times a day. Aldi it is.....
-
Richard Neal (@Wombat_Ric) reported@r0ck3t23 It wont effect providers as much as you think. We have the NBN in Australia and all that happened is everyone became resellers or add on service providers. The telco's wont disappear, they just wont have to pay for infrastructure anymore and become SpaceX resellers.

Millicent Bystander (@trickyidnego) reportedWaiting for nbn person to fix my internet. Has been down for over 2 weeks. Today my provider will take $$$ from my account to pay for internet i haven't been able to access. Capitalism is a beautiful thing BTW other countries fix stuff on the day but hey, oi oi oi oi

Paul Maynard (@pauldotm) reportedThe exisiting tech support could be retained within the NMN preserving that knowledge base and the mobile networks could be better enmeshed with the NBN. Coverage could be better managed.

Evans Electric (@tsport100) reportedA guy moved into a new apartment. Only “official” internet was FTTN NBN — $90/month for a pathetic 30 Mbps down max. He called Telstra and Optus. Both said “5G Fixed Wireless not available at your address.” He checked a cell tower map anyway. Half a dozen towers within a couple km. Bought a GL.iNet GL-X3000NR 5G router + built a DIY 4x4 MIMO LPDA external antenna. Result? 800 Mbps download / 170 Mbps upload. 25x faster. $75/month. Same building. Here’s exactly how he did it 🧵

@JPVanga (@jpvenga20579) reported@jera_nichols @jackieaus @Starlink I'm Northern Beaches Sydney. The slightest change in the weather or HAARP signals - Chem Trails, all affect the signal which drops out as a result. It also drops out at 6.15pm EST most evenings. I run another NBN service in tandem as I run an internet based business from home.

Raymond McKeown (@RaymondKeown3) reportedIt is grand final day for that very failed ex labor fool Pommie Stephen Conroy. At his presser he is lying his arse off. It is time @SkyNewsAust must dump this labor liar Conroy. Remember when he was the minister for the NBN his budget was $8.4 billion and a build time of 8 years Pommie Conroy is just another labor fail Enough @SkyNewsAust We do pay subscriptions to you Show us some respect!

🇳🇬Inemesit Affia 07037900827................🇳🇬 (@inemesitaffia) reported@edcruzX @cb_doge @Starlink It's cheaper the the NBN solution
-
Con! (@c0n_AU) reported@BeauGiles Typically, no. For the cost of a backup device/SIM/NBN or even Starlink, it would pay for itself in an hour of an outage like this!
-
Ferdie Khnopff (@FKhnopff) reported@Democracy_Duck @ABCmediawatch Are you suggesting giving the network back to public ownership? To an organisation like NBN where rejects from Telstra & Optus go to work? (Including Telstra's so-called risk management 'experts' BTW) With ACMA keeping an eye on things?

jimmy jimmy (@sandeep05639313) reported0x84badd07170efb50f5068dd10618bd0b99379557 nbn i urgent 5000 $ plz help
-
Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@FannyFitch Maybe they need to go back to the fail-safe future, using Labors' Full Fibre NBN, that Vested Interests installed the LNP Crime Org Puppet Junta to nobble with stone age Copper. It operated well, for over 65 years, even on iron age Copper, before being sent into the cloud.

Garfield C. Reynolds (@GarfieldR1966) reported@NBN_Australia Here I am almost 2 weeks later and still regular interruptions while NBN lists our address as subject to network degradation. I have contacted my provider and they then check with NBN and I am told work is ongoing. But nothing gets fixed!!!!
-
Shane (@bigRD73) reported@blowingtom2 @SenSHenderson It would be as bad as NBN co if they didn't.
-
Kribby 🦊🔥 Soulfire Kitsune (@KribbyVT) reportedWhen my internet stops conking out I will be UNSTOPPABLE… but until then I sit in the corner and sob 🥺 nbn please fix it
-
Brat (@IyBrat) reported@Batman2242 Idiot without NBN you would not have internet during COVID to jack off
-
Mitchell Costin (@mitchell_costin) reportedWho else is experiencing **** internet speeds after 7pm? By 10 pm it's almost impossible to get pages to load up and and have a smooth social media experience. Bloody diabolical. I'm on the verge of ditching the NBN and going Starlink. 😠😠

Leigh (@Leeroy1855) reported@olsod45 @BobBurn97207272 @R64862Rvan We are not America slick. That debt is all Labor's. When you announce major infra structure and I mean major! With zero funding put in place to fund it. As your arse is being shown the door. Which Labor does every time and requiring some else to find the money. Then your always going to be working from behind. We were debt free as Howard left office. Then along came Rudd with the NBN and Gillard with the NDIS. Announced with massive fanfare and zero funding. Granted Morrison and the idiot Turnbul didn't help either by throwing money at them. We are heading for a recession (we had to have) but you appear to have your head ensconced in a very dark place.

jaded ( ジェイドフィッシュア ) (@jadedfissure) reported@realRick_AUS Out in rural NSW, the max I could get was 50Mbps. And it took 3 months and a really good tech - (who got silenced) to tell me that they had a broken cable on my run and they needed to rerun the cables for about 50 feet. 7 visits I think I have 3 months with nothing before that! And every time it rained, I lost connection for hours I was the middle of the work day. Aussie Broadband were the only ones who kept me sane - NBN itself was (and is) rubbish, but Aussie was amazing.
-
Jamie (@jamieeedward) reported@Rizzabeast I had a disgusting phone interaction with outsourced staff in the Optus Nbn install team, the first issue was a computer error, which I understood but asked to escalate to a supervisor, this guy had no customer service skills, talking over me, i asked to talk to his supervisor
-
Haalyle (@Haalyle) reportedNo wifi today, we've had some electrical problems, mainly to do with the washing machine. That just means a relaxing Sunday of playing them games (now that the electricity is on). (NBN always takes a long time to recover.)
-
Mark A (@MarkA5859) reportedI really am angry the LNP rooted the NBN. Now I have to seriously consider Musk’s Starlink for my Internet especially since both Telstra & Optus have & are having issues.
-
Mike Dupont (@introsp3ctor) reported@JDRedding new books network, they discuss a book about those topics. the nbn is an academic podcast sponsored by gambling and pharma industry that snickers and laughs at plebs and avocates for the violent overthrow of the government. its a great listen if you want to know how people think.
-
Ferrousoxide (@Ferrousoxi29174) reported@lesstenny Terdbull is full of ****. Just look at the failure of the NBN and Snowy Hydro 2.0.
-
Johannes Weissman (@jway1969) reported@Starlink How about Australia has a quarter decent NBN Howard was promised one for 4.5 billion in 2004.. but Liberterians OMG globalist atlas network doesn't support actual capitalism just forced brand buying and interrupting aholed
-
Maddie Latham (@MadLatham) reportedMy phone reception has been having issues, yesterday the nbn carked it and I got spat on (my bag) by someone in Footscray. I’ve ordered $60 worth of coffee this morning, had 2 long blacks and I’m about to walk the dog in the rain and go to a bathhouse this arvo.
-
Tim (@ttmoari) reported@SydneyCityTV Those horrendous pins are still being worn. WIN News’ product is piss poor compared to NBN News. But the latter will probably become rubbish in time.
-
Mezmarr (@Mezmarr) reported@NBN_Australia Working hard! More like hardly working! It's been nearly 24hrs since it went down with no updates, no notice of what's actually wrong. NBN being government funded as well, is so ****!

RedPocatto (@RedPocatto) reported@kicksupport Australia NBN did me *****… Internet was down for 4 days. My streak is destroyed. 😭👍
