    @Jenbox360 Nah that's not torture... I've finally convinced my ISP & NBN here there's an issue with my fibre connection with 40+ dropouts a day. It's taken them a month & 4 callouts to finally accept it's not my hardware or within my property. I was losing my mind.

    @sarlils23 History does not support that claim. Quite the reverse actually. You must be on LNPs' nobbled Copper NBN, because your claims & assertions, all apply to the deposed & disgraced, LNP Crime Org, Junta Puppets.😬👋

    @p_terg IT ordeal 😵‍💫 They got the NBN on today. Box nowhere near the computer and computer doesn’t have a wifi adapter. So I did the dash down the road and got them a 10m Ethernet cable and away they go.

    @roberts_pa97578 I’d never use @telstra - the experiences I had with them as a network consultant for clients were atrocious - their NBN implementations/installations/services were pathetic

    @NBN_Australia still cannot connect a NBN service to my mothers location. Yet it says in website its serviced by FTTN, but here we are 6+ months (3 retail providers) and still cannot get a service. They blame construction, but what happened to project planning before that :)

    If our @NBN_Australia is like this for the Australian census night, our family won’t exist as won’t be able to fill in the online forms… will have to drive down the road for mobile coverage. Can we have our old copper to node connection back?

    @Starlink New ticket
Subject: URGENT – Unauthorised NBN destruction by queue-jumping installer
Write: “Installer jumped other jobs, took extra cash, destroyed my NBN infrastructure instead of installing Starlink properly and connecting devices. On top plan. Demand immediate fix, replacement hardware if needed, and investigation.” Not r e a l l y what I expected 2 bill periods in. One mobile phone connected. Arguing with grok about what’s possible and what isn’t.

    @Telstra well done. In an unprecedented occurrence after more than 40 years as a customer, Telstra staff - part of the transition team from ADSL to NBN - have, after a series of missteps, done everything single thing they promised to do yesterday. Thank you.

    @LloydRusse17883 @deemadigan So you also need government to get out of health, education, transport, policing, NBN, clean water, defence, emergency services, etc.?

    I 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.

    @strangerous10 A lot of people forget the NBN was in part to shift the fixed broadband service monopoly from Telstra.

    @NBN_Australia @ausgov If I ran my business like you I’d be bankrupt - you get away with it - too bad I’m going to Starlink - hope Starlink puts you out of business - how about paying me for my leave day!!!

    @shaunacohn @Starlink If there is no service in your area, it’s likely due to development, outage or missing database record. Check the NBN Rollout Map on their website. Verify your address. Your address may be missing. There is widespread NBN coverage on Gold Coast. Check their website.

    @22thinkinggirl I tripped on a footpath in a Brisbane suburb,because it had been raised and not put back correctly by the NBN,the council fixed it that afternoon.Councils work,the problem is these are state roads in Victoria.Should the councils be asked to help out the new state government to get this major problem to a manageable level.

    @Bryan_APDS There he is, popping up again in his blue suit! Mr Copper Wire NBN $65billion. “No Bloody Network” he stopped a HFC roll out to install Prof. Alex Graham Bell’s copper wire from 1876. Famous words to Mr Watson, the first phone call. Australia let it happen!

    @GusLefty The LNP let the NDIS run away. Deliberately in an attempt to make it unsustainable and shut it down. It's what they do. Medicare. NBN. Veterans. Robodebt.

    @Batman2242 Much worse. Starlink is an infinely better service; higher speeds, low latency. NBN satellite cross subsidy alone is more than a starlink subscription. NBN satellites are EOL, they've contracted Amazon's Kuiper for replacement rather than proven starlink 🤪 They hate Elon

    Here in Sydney, we're still waiting for the Nine Network's switch to a mostly MPEG4 multiplex which among other things, will bring with it 9LifeHD. No idea if they're waiting for NBN to move out before making that change or what, but I guess patience is a virtue in any case!

    It 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!

    @TimLooker @ABCaustralia I knew our communications system was down the tube with no stopping it when NBN bought the Copper Wire Network from Telstra and start decommissioning it, we should have had our Copper Network (which served us well) continue to do so along side Fibre etc.
