NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Paul Barby (@PaulJBarby) reported@AGLEnergy internet has been down for 14+ hours. HFC NBN, hard-wired setup, two known-working routers tested, cables changed, NBN box reset. Router sends PPPoE PADI but gets no PADO, so this is failing before login/auth. Please stop looping basic Wi-Fi scripts and escalate to NBN
-
Testflight (@_Testflight_) reported@Wizardgames15 Oh it's real bad, even just on the coast out of the cities it's still not even fully NBN yet
-
DissentingSkeptic (@DissentingS) reportedAustralia has free fibre internet. Nobody needs high latency satellite garbage in fibre areas. Being inflicted with Kband wireless radiation that could well be CIA subliminal messaging mind control signals like mobile is. Overbuilding NBN fibre should be prevented and ridiculous.

James Boman โฉ (@JBoman32768) reported@techAU @BassonBrain @Starlink Its a real testament to how slow and overpriced limited in availability the NBN is.

๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฆ๐บ (@DanielSMatthews) reported@eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reportedA pity I didn't see how tonight's Dalts report played out on NBN News, would've been rather funny if Natasha Beyersdorf (who I think may have even worked alongside Kevin at Prime Tamworth, but I'm not 100% sure of that) made a "I think I've seen Kevin on another network" quip! ๐

Snagz (@SnagzOnX) reported@kr0der Fair call, Iโm from Melbourne, Iโm a streamer so reliable internet is literally key for me lolโฆ losing $100s each day. Itโs been an issue for the last 4 days and they canโt send anyone from NBN out until Monday unfortunately. But they know it is on NBNs side, so thatโs a start..

Aussie Christian๐ฆ๐บ๐โ๏ธ (@MAustraliaGA06) reported@RennickGBR My issue with point 3 is that for the last 2 decades, there hasnโt been one federal project that was delivered on time and on budget, every single infrastructure built blew the budget completely. So itโs just more spending. Snowy hydro, NBN, inland rail, hunter frigate etc

GdayM8 (@BlackHillCraig) reportedYou're partly right - we don't have a free market. The market here is heavily distorted with gov intervention. Inflation is cause by increased money supply. That inflation affects everyone - including grocery stores, NBN providors, health funds. They must pass those costs down. Fuel is also subject to inflation in addition to the fuel crisis. This impacts input costs for many businesses, not all, to varying degrees. The only thing that causes market wide inflation is Gov.

Peter Dewar (@PeterD84508) reported@TheNoisyTrunk @Caitlen2310 @arbsmichael At a time when the network needed to be upgraded to optic fibre Howard sold off Telstra to the people that already owned it. The cost to build the NBN should also be included in Howard's debts .

Nikki Austin's Aussiegirl ๐ Love Hank & Elvis (@AbAussieGirl) reported@optus_help whenever we come to your help you throw it over to the NBN and then they handle it back to you no one ever seems to be able to solve the issue ever I've never seen such an incompetent company instead of signing up more people for your service maybe make

FlyingDropBear - Twatter - full of bots. (@FlyingDropBear) reported@5BNylonTip Kind of like the Coalition govt pumping FTTN tech for the NBN where we'd need Air Conditioned cabinets in the street to cool the active network gear, instead of just installing passive(ish) Fibre Optics. AU is not super intelligent when it comes to tech, from a govt perspective.

purana (@purana) reportedBeen trying for weeks now to get a NBN service (FTTN) connected for my mother. But TPG who she was with, and who she had service moved with just gave her the run around. They said it was provisioned, yet no DSL sync light and trying to get that resolved went in circles.

The Last Dragon (@TLDragon23) reported@DarrylKerrigan3 @thecoastguy Yeah, it's a losers game in Technology esp. for the Government because it is too slow and too far behind the curve They'll spend all this taxpayer money implementing something that will take too long and cost too much, then something else will be created that will blow it out of the water NBN < Starlink anyone?

Connor (@CAweir1993) reportedNBN News getting shafted for Sydney news is not gunna go down well

Quo Warranto (@warranto_q92963) reportedGetting there. First time EVER since the NBN was put in by Raj and his mate...i now have a green transfer light as opposed to orange. Of course no one gave a **** there was a problem on the day. I do have some patch cables without a cat rating, so there is that. Baby steps.

JILL (@1Swinging_Voter) reportedWOW. Was that Mike Kaiser perched up next to that Murray Watt snot from #QLDPOL at #ESTIMATES today? WOW still got his snout in the corrupt Labor trough. Remember he was handed that NBN job by Stephen Conroy no application needed. WTF is he doing now on the public **** #CANBERRA

Hasaan (@shanihashmi) reported@sharmilafaruqi Pakistan should seriously consider an expanded National Broadband Network (NBN) style rollout similar to Australiaโs model. A nationally coordinated fiber backbone could reduce duplication, improve rural connectivity, lower long-term infrastructure costs, and ensure faster, more equal internet access across the country.Private ISPs can still compete at the retail level, but broadband infrastructure itself should be treated as a long-term national strategic investment. At the same time, Starlink licensing should move quickly through the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority. To capture the market, Starlink will likely introduce pricing that is affordable for ordinary people, especially in underserved and remote areas.

Byron Spurling (@SpurlingByron) reported@NBN_Australia any update on service outage in Seven Hills/Norman Park in Brisbane, QLD? Your website is lagging and blaming a power outage for the issue. @Energex did their job, we had power back on within 4.5-5 hours, that was yesterday 16/06/26 Still waiting 27+ hours laterโฆ

JimBobSquarePants ๐บ๐ฆ (@James_M_South) reported@Telstra Your customer service team are disgusting. They mixed up NBN and Optimcomm and not one person answered a single question I asked. Absolutely disgusting. I want to raise a formal complaint.

Funkdoctor (@Docsthename) reportedI think Telstra is having relationship issues with NBN which is delaying my divorce with Telstra ๐ค

Ian James Lake (@metalslaw) reported@KillAuDeepState @abcnews @SBSNews Nrth nsw's nbn news had a report on it during 6pm news. Mostly because of the rioting caused by the 'far right' (pissed off locals). Then pointing out that Nigel Farage is bad for noticing the attempted beheading as well... ๐

Roz๐นโ๏ธ๐โฎ๏ธโจ๏ธ๐๐ถ๐ (@rozywhitelight) reportedWe pay the highest costs for our nbn, fttb etc yet our services are substandard, yet again, service provision in Australia fails dismally. I have made 3 calls, long wait times, non local call centre operators ie offshored. Right when Australians need jobs to pay expensive living
-
Mr Happy (@JohnSmi63567221) reported@MrKRudd Like Rudds NBN $60,000,000,000 and counting cost to tax payers plus 70-90 monthly cost to use. Starlink ZERO cost to tax payers,get it anywhere, pay between 40 and 70 a month. No one wants to hear your ideas. **** off

Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@Richard01357064 If only the deposed LNP Crime Org had not nobbled Labors' worlds best, full Fibre NBN (with iron age copper), you'd know that the LNP Crime Orgs' decade of debt & devastation, was over 4 yrs ago. The war is long over soldier. By the way, the Beetles have broken up too.๐๐
