  • Ann90335924 AnnRoyalFlush (@Ann90335924) reported

    @NBN_Australia @Se77Evans Rubbish, you guys are doing nothing to support the providers, all you've said to my provider is that it's not NBN's fault as you can see activity and data packages being sent/received. Never thought @Australia would be so backward in their consumer support, it's bloody disgusting

  • matticus_flinch Matt Furlong (@matticus_flinch) reported from Halls Gap, State of Victoria

    @_thomasparkes @NBN_Australia Yep - starlink (and similar services in US) appear to be the primary use case. It's a per-device service; I'm using it to access a Raspberry Pi server. Setup involves installing wireguard and configuring a tunnel to the endpoint.

  • JamesDouglasOP paul Willis (@JamesDouglasOP) reported

    @JohnBirmingham Just watching it now. Damn shame about the nbn cutting in and out though.

  • ne87078804 Gary O'Neill (@ne87078804) reported

    Ever since the #nbn appeared in the suburb a couple of weeks ago to “improve internet speed” it has been as slow as a wet week- what a waste of space.

  • Se77Evans Simon Evans (@Se77Evans) reported

    @Ann90335924 @NBN_Australia @Australia Sounds like you have your own issues so probably better off dealing with them yourself rather than jumping into randoms like me to hijack your cause. Be kind to the people who are just here to help.

  • Terrytoo69 Terry Sweetman (@Terrytoo69) reported

    @Ann90335924 @NBN_Australia Mine came back at about 4pm after being down since early morning.

  • Jackbuzza Jackbuzza (@Jackbuzza) reported

    @jamstion @Aussie_BB Very much so. It was an issue previously with the NBN copper line. Aussie told us NBN fixed it

  • maddisondesigns Anthony Hortin ➳ ➵ (@maddisondesigns) reported

    @Aussie_BB Hi 👋 I have no internet and your app is saying there’s an NBN outage, but not much else. I’m on the Ringwood POI. Any news on what’s going on?

  • Rod84680356 Rod (@Rod84680356) reported

    Isnt it amazing how Telstra after 6 long months 10 telstra reps 2 telstra Mall shop visits i finally find 1 paid staff member that actually could help while the others brush me off Telstra nbn billing me 2 per month which i didnt ask for nor nbn made any difference, CEOs earn mil

  • Ann90335924 AnnRoyalFlush (@Ann90335924) reported

    @NBN_Australia @Terrytoo69 My internet has been down since 30th! NBN is doing jackshit to support the providers in resolving the issue as NBN thinks the net is working fine at my residence.Bloody frustrating.Will be lodging a consumer court complaint tomorrow, enough is enough. Disgusting customer service!

  • RellieDorset Rellie 🇦🇺 (@RellieDorset) reported

    @sklusif I hope so Scott, I have NBN and it sucks.

  • Warsuxgmailcom1 Warsux (@Warsuxgmailcom1) reported

    @alexB00683977 @AlboMP Our economy has gone to the garbage tip and we'll before covid, they have so miss managed everything, including the NBN, illegal IRAQ war, reconciliation, climate change bushfires/floods and covid

  • Kymbo82_SA Kymbo (@Kymbo82_SA) reported

    @carrotheadman @theage @JennieDuke Let’s talk sports, carport rorts, NBN by the LNP, millions wasted on GBR, or locking up people overseas…. Currently at $4m per year, per person… Yeah never mind it’s the LNP so nightly and born to rule BS!

  • ItsMePHIZ PHIZZI (@ItsMePHIZ) reported

    @PandaTVoce You'd be pretty damn unlucky go not be able to stream with an NBN connection of any kind. That being said there are lots of tools to tell you what connection is at any potential place.

  • adlevin Adam Levin (@adlevin) reported

    @Telstra Still no good the NBN. It is actually pathetic the service here. To have downtime of more than 1 day is 3rd world service. Who can I contact to fix this?

  • mikerawl Michael Rawlings (@mikerawl) reported

    @SpectatorOz He’s out of his depth whatever he tries to speak about. An appearance on 7.30 showed he had NO IDEA about the NBN - he looked so stupid that he rarely appeared again. Kerry O’Brien was asking EASY questions too! He’s a mad monk that’s all.

  • Se77Evans Simon Evans (@Se77Evans) reported

    @Ann90335924 @NBN_Australia @Australia Hey Ann, there's no need to be so aggressive. The NBN is **** in the bush but that's not the fault of the people who work on the social media platforms. They're just doing their job.

  • wldf5 wldf (@wldf5) reported

    @NBN_Australia no nbn now! No light on. Please fix it🥺

  • ad_mico The 化け物 AdMico (@ad_mico) reported

    @NBN_Australia Getting it to not drop out several times an evening might help.

  • Se77Evans Simon Evans (@Se77Evans) reported

    Bloody hell, my wireless #NBN has been so **** recently. I can't stream a full episode from any streaming service, let alone watch a movie or play the Xbox without it constantly going into buffer mode. 🤬 Thank fk I don't have to rely on the internet to run a business.

  • trandel Trent Randel 💉💉Pro-vaccine is not pro-mandate (@trandel) reported

    @lotacharlie Creating money pits is not in the national interest. The ALP screwed up NBN which was further screwed up by the LNP. Someone should fix that mess first. Digital communities are the future, not trains.

  • RaindancerAU RaindancerAU (@RaindancerAU) reported

    @hambovegas Is that their own network and not NBN?

  • ap1144 plop (@ap1144) reported

    @NevilleRutter @theage @JennieDuke Why did NBN fail?

  • TbmgamesO Cookie_monster (@TbmgamesO) reported

    @Kaijammo @icedKittea_ That ain't Aussie Broadbands fault. That's a NBN issue, they control the appointment scheduling.

  • jak_holland Jack Holland (@jak_holland) reported

    @Telstra hey Telstra, The smart modem was providing backup 4G wifi till the nbn gets connected. I got a call from Telstra to connect the nbn. For some reason the nbn can’t be connected at this time. Now the 4G back up isn’t even working. Please help. Telstra app chat is no help

  • jak_holland Jack Holland (@jak_holland) reported

    @Telstra Told me what I already knew. That my nbn will be connected some time in the next 48 hours. They said the same thing on Wednesday🙄. That’s not the issue though. The backup 4G was working fine about an hour ago but now it’s not working at all after they ‘tried to connect the nbn’

  • schottgun93 Philip Schott (@schottgun93) reported

    @NBN_Australia @VodafoneAU now onto my 9th glorious day of hotspotting my phone for internet since you two can't seem to agree who's responsible for fixing my service. Passing the blame back and forth constantly is getting a bit dull. Not great when we're trying to work from home

  • Ann90335924 AnnRoyalFlush (@Ann90335924) reported

    @Terrytoo69 @NBN_Australia Hopefully NBN responds to my providers too soon, half of my year end holidays has been spent on the phone with customer support... Thanks NBN for making the year worse than it already was!

  • namuh_gnieb Namuh Gnieb (@namuh_gnieb) reported

    @Brendenbren87 @worldnewstweet_ And the wasted millions of taxpayer dollars spent on Workchoices, offshore processing of children, a crap NBN, paying profitable millionaires in a pandemic…ffs First Nations people have a right to self determination. They don’t need you problem solving for them.

  • Terrytoo69 Terry Sweetman (@Terrytoo69) reported

    NBN down all morning.
