NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Benjamin Bavea (@BBavea) reported@KendallJenner Optus struggles to cover here too. It isn't as bad as Vodafone, but it doesn't seem to have any better signal than Telstra & they're like double the price. It's in the small hours of the morning when signal drops. One NBN fibre connection between 150 struggles.
-
RoverDownUnder (@AJG71) reported@Adam_Creighton @DrCameronMurray This is what happens when you outsource what should be a government service to the private sector. Profit motive kicks in as do rorts & fraud. Also see the Unemployment Services, Housing, NBN etc. It isn't the scheme itself, it's the people who run it.

jethro4445 🦉 (@cornhuskerj) reportedAnd email that the order has been completed. My nbn service including phone went dead. After 90m on phone with @Telstra, I finally got back internet via their 5g sim in the modem. I was furious when told cable nbn and phone wouldn’t be be restored for a week.
-
Robotfix 🔰🗽🇦🇺 (@Robotfixx) reported@ruicharadrius State owned NBN is ****. As opposed to SK’s network (fastest in the world) which was privately built out. It’s already cost 50 billion dollars (if your money btw) and is climbing
-
LawHealthTech (@LawHealthTech) reported@cheynejfishing @bluewavedream I expect starlink may be better than the stupid 4G modems that the NBN was giving to farmers out in the wopps But for anyone who needs reliable, fast connection or a static IP to host some server or service... Fibre or VDSL is the only way to go
-
Studio WyldFurr (@WyldFurr) reportedAustralia's crappy NBN strikes again, network is so bad I can't maintain a smooth connection to YouTube. So no livestream today. I'll see if I can make some videos and post a montage.
-
jethro4445 🦉 (@cornhuskerj) reportedSo last week @Telstra rang out of the blue to ask if I had requested to change my nbn to another provider as they had received an order to transfer my service. I said no and the agent said okay he’d cancel the transfer order Then on Friday I received a message
-
Challenging Thoughts (@thoughtlag) reportedNever liked MTV, but wouldn't tolerate d3ath threats against any channel, MTV, mayadeen, Manar, Aljadeed, Future, LBCi, OTV, NBN. Unacceptable by any measures. Imperfect and biased like most of our channels, but not as much as some. Ma badda hal2ad. I see blind unfounded hate
-
Blake Harris (@Blakestar27) reported@NBN_Australia idk if this is an NBN issue or my ISP issue but since about Tuesday my internet witch has FTTP all of the sudden became slow and I can’t even look up anything sometimes and my internet hasn’t been like that since I got FTTP.
-
Jotham Smith (@JothamSmith) reported@NBN_Australia where is the update or information about the Major outage affecting the lower North of Sydney? As per the Telecommunications (Customer Communications for Outages) Industry Standard 2024 published on the NBN webpage.
-
Vic (@ImVicLoLagain) reported@mrru5s3ll @LCHF_Matt @pikkkkaro this is the only decent explanation for what he said that could make sense. the only other way is if his NBN is unstable. because if you have a gigabit connection you need a router capable of it and they all have fine wifi by aus standards , which I would argue is **** but w/e
-
🦺 Benedict Harris (@benedict303) reported@Optus we were on the phone to OPTUS for THREE HOURS to some operator in India, we just wanted to move to a faster NBN plan, and they could not migrate our old account over. NIGHTMARE and Optus are outsourcing their support to useless people in India
-
𝚁 𝚊 𝚐 𝚒 𝚗 𝚐 (@lRagingI1) reported@MalFPS_ Australian internet isn’t bad anymore. Your probs still on fibre to the node. Gotta search your address on the nbn site and get that free fttp update
-
twoshedslegit (@twoshedslegit) reported@xeveriano1 @4mambo My speed went from 40 under the LNP to over 500 under Labor after FREE NBN upgrades. We got free fibre to the premises after the LNP’s ridiculous and stupidly slow fibre to the node
-
Brettme (@Brettski_aus) reported@mark16pg If it was up to Turnbull, we would have had a working NBN. Lucky we listened to the other ********* and ended up with the **** show we have now.
-
Mark (@markhumooney) reported@LCHF_Matt @SkyNewsAust Hilarious so how is that done via NBN. How do fire, emergency services weather services, local, state and federal government agencies do this in one area. Being done now. How does an emergency text system send warnings that have gigs of data. You’re just proving you have no idea
-
Spicy Ice (@SpicyIce7) reported@SolarisFR @The_Bloooop I appreciate the offer but unfortunately I live in Australia who has this magical thing called nbn that controls the internet. Unfortunately nbn r about as useful as dog **** amd i have had no internet for 5 months and likely womt have internet for another 2 at minimum
-
Kit (@KitCarnage) reportedA little make up stream before the planned NBN outage? What could go wrong?
-
iliketowastemytime (@Au_Fraser) reported@padders001 @LdogExtreme ***** how ******** is coles and woolies supply dominance a failure of the government? they should fine them more right? imagine if the libs werent ******* retarded and actually managed to put a decent NBN in for one and itd be ******* done by now, let alone NSW corruption
-
Millicent Bystander (@trickyidnego) reportedI look at this guy and all I see is rorted ****** internet. We have such poor leaders in Australia that they cant even recognise how basic, how integral, stuff like the nbn is to Australia. Still fixing yr mistakes, so stfu
-
The Lord (@lord_tizza) reportedAnd Telstra support said it was a fault, after a hour and a half of trouble shooting. I checked NBN and looks like a service outage in our area - checked a couple of addresses in our road. How long do these usually take to resolve? I was looking forward to a good long weekend :(
-
Peter Patrick (@PeterPatri67891) reported@pikkkkaro The wifi will only improve if the internet connections are better. So the problem is the nbn network cable & fibre optics not the wifi.
-
Vic (@ImVicLoLagain) reported@robboclancy @LCHF_Matt @pikkkkaro looks like ur even dumber then bro because the original post said >invented wifi >bad wifi. not invented wifi bad internet , ur making the conflation. our wifi is only good by our standards , id argue it's not very good in general. our NBN now though I'd say isn't bad

Gregory J O'Flaherty 💧💦 (@schitzoziris) reportedMy High Speed National Broadband Network #NBN Internet Connection has gone from slow, to none existent !

miss_84 (@Miss__84) reportedAgaiinnnnnnn @Telstra again. A war widow with a serious heart condition without the use of her phone because of an nbn outage. But how does that affect the mobile phone useage Youre the absolute worst company. She feels cut off from the world. But hey she has the internet
-
Marko Matvikov (@MarkoMatvikov) reported@Sarah59321051 I've just got my home internet with them and dealing with them has always been great in terms of tech support, new setups, liaising with NBN, network outages, price rise communication, etc.

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

Psimocybin (@Psimocybin7) reported@C10885107738417 @QBCCIntegrity I didn't vote for ASX listed because I wouldn't want it to be like the NBN. Publicly funded private companies are the worst. If it was publicly owned and then sold in an IPO so the taxpayer gets their investment back then good.
-
Ky Broome (@KyBroome35) reportedNow almost 5 hours into NBN being out for an unknown reason... Pretty pathetic tbh As such videos of Trade Targets and Team Reveals might be slow and late getting out
-
David FarleyBrain 🍄🔭Keep Alaska Canadian!! (@Coffeedaveoz) reported@SocialPiranha3 Yeah I do the Aldi $23 a month on mobile and now have almost 247.6 gb rollover data ... handy when the local NBN goes down.
