NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Marg N - AU (@Daisy1158) reported.@Telstra You know, it would be great if people would be notified of NBN work and interruptions at least BEFORE the internet is no longer working! I got a notification AFTER the service was restored!
-
Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@Thejimpenman Ask your serfs to shout you full fibre NBN Jimmy. That was under the Deposed LNP Crime org that ran up $850 additional debt, without creating one cent of legacy assett, whilst claiming to have paid down the existing $150 billion debt that took all prior govts 112 yrs to reach.

feliz navidud (@DesignedToFade) reportedThe @NBN_Australia > Service Provider must be one of the worst customer experiences there is. NBN are the issue when there’s an outage, customers aren’t able to talk to NBN for info, and service providers give vague information to customers because they aren’t kept informed.

MrRuSs3LL (@mrru5s3ll) reported@ImVicLoLagain @LCHF_Matt @pikkkkaro He is saying that wifi is not internet, that's it. I have many services at home on my local network that I use my wifi to connect to that don't use the internet (NBN) at all. Fwiw I also have 2000/500 NBN with a capable router, 10gig switch and cat6a runs that support it. My internet is great by any standards, the only thing Australia does ****** (now - it wasn't this good a couple of years ago) is that we don't have symmetrical links for consumers. The whole point though is that the idiot OP thinks that "wifi" means internet, and it doesn't.

Ox HaK (@oxhak) reportedAustralia’s NBN said a new fiber internet test reached speeds above 200 gigabits per second, far beyond today’s 2 gigabit service levels.
-
JoeKing (@JoeF_ingKing) reported@ruicharadrius The government did the same thing that Biden / Harris did in USA... They promised "fast NBN" but didn't do ****. They could have just provided us all with Starlink set ups for a LOT cheaper... They could have paid for our monthly connection fees and STILL saved money.
-
Grinds My Gears (@alreadyfurious) reported@Someozbloke @deniseshrivell That's good in your circumstance. But it has been reported by others. I was more addressing why NBN is not a waste. The reason you still hear about it these days having issues is because of LNP screwing it up with a mixed technology approach. FTTP does not have these drawbacks.
-
Hobbie (@Hobbie4C) reported@Riogallica NBN is always a cluster. The whole NBN-ISP-customer chain is absolute *****. A virtual guarantee all problems will take longer to resolve.
-
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

👻 Warren Money 👻🎸🇦🇺🎬🍿🎃🏚️ (@WarrenMoney) reported@Cam_M_Caldwell The coalition is the ones that got us in this mess by closing down the refineries. Dont play the hero card because you once could be the villain. Thanks for ruining the nbn rollout and making it cost 4 x the price. *********.
-
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
-
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
-
UngayMelbourne (@UngayMelbourne) reported@ausworkers2025 @gigabasedd No defence protection, no medicare, no shipping ports, no rail network into Australia, no dole, no NBN, no NDIS, no freeways, no one to police imports still have 90000 aborigines to look after.
-
Bodgie Steve (@BodgieSteve) reported@Riogallica Didn't know you could contact NBNco. I've had 3 NBN boxes **** up (nearby lightning 🌩 strike) Contact provider. Ausie BB, 1-3 days. Next door has Optus, 1-2 weeks.
-
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.
-
J Pipsam (@markdavaus) reported@MarkoMatvikov AussieBB are awesome! I got FTTP installed via NBN organised by them without any work on my part. When in the process of moving in I hadn't connected my router up after signing up, they rang me to check of everything was okay and if I was having tech issues. Great customer focus.
-
reasonable_ginger (@reasonable63682) reported@HonTonyAbbott are you still around? I'm still dealing with your crap NBN you left us with.. No credibility on my end
-
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.
-
JAY ☘️☘️☘️ (@jotepPdT) reported@status_is_down @VodafoneAU mobile network is always very weak along Parish Street and Harvest Street in Elara Marsden Park. Now NBN is also down in MP, and Vodafone is very unreliable.
-
Julian (@captainjujubean) reported@Borindas_Lament @pikey14 Like the NDIS or the NBN or Snowy were "costed"? They seem to be the only party talking about actually reducing spending, fraud and waste. Like all parties they will over promise and under deliver but at least they are raising these things as actual issues

melie doyle (@MelieDoyle) reported@TrilogyOfSeven @Starlink Short range wifi from NBN used to be a lot better than satellites… but a 7G booster? What the heck are they pushing that for? When people finally understand, a lot of companies are gonna go bust because they won’t be able to pay out all the claims. Direct to phone satellites, which if done right, can be done on 90 satellites, is better, but nobody is using it well. Regular satellites are unsafe, and don’t work… that’s why they need thousands of satellites. In 2011, hundreds of medical scientists petitioned the UN asking them to halt the roll out of 5G. The original documents, which I read, and are now hard to find, stated that such frequencies disrupt our nervous system, our neurological system, and damage DNA. They shared all the science. They also shared predictions based on what would happen if they moved forward. Many humans have been lost since 2019, as well as birds and insects. Independent studies show how many insects we have lost, not to mention that everyone talks about the fact that there are no bugs on their windshield anymore. Resonant frequencies inflame cells, and fry neural pathways. Insects have a more fragile system, which is why they are dropping first. The UN did pause in 2011, but by 2019, billionaires had paid the UN to state that it was all about the risk of heat burns, and they decided it wasn’t an issue. Since then, the scientists keep petitioning the UN, but the UN is bought and paid for. 😑 they aren’t doing anything to stop it.

peter rowe (@Prowerock1) reported@Mark_Graph Goodness. A long and extremely expensive list. Re NBN, just threw out my NBN router and got a 5G router instead. NBN is awful not just faults but the fact that you can’t deal with them direct to fix those faults. Disconnect between Telcos and NBN is a structural flaw.
-
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.
-
DBMG 🇦🇺 (@dbmgreen) reported@james00000001 NBN 50000km of new copper wire $.7bil Now Telstra/NBN have to retrofit secure pits to stop people stealing the copper. Not a problem with all fibre. The LNP completely screwed AUS all the while paying their mates millions to manage it. #industrialisedcorruption
-
Box of Rocks (@frankbcdn) reportedNever forgive these mealy-mouthed figure fudgers and their second rate outcomes. The #NBN 🤬
-
Ryan Emery (@ryanremery) reportedSo the FTTN service that had been supposedly canceled is now working. @VodafoneAU claimed it was my modem. I'm using that same modem/router connected to the NBN fibre optic. Either it's a miracle or something broken got fixed.
-
Vic (@ImVicLoLagain) reported@mrru5s3ll @LCHF_Matt @pikkkkaro yes I understand ,he seems to think I don't know there's a difference between wifi and NBN but my only contention is he seems to think we have great wifi but **** NBN and I think the inverse. somewhere this communication got lost lmao
-
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 :(
-
Brett Young 🇦🇺 (@MrBMYoung) reported@SocialPiranha3 Exactly! The power to the computer/NBN etc is running fine but pretty sure the power point I use for the sandwich maker is still out! Damn!
