    @deniseshrivell 5G modem has never worked better. I then found out they tried the same thing with my dad and he fell for their reasons. He has an old computer that doesn’t even reach the speeds the NBN plan they put him on can reach. Boo Optus Boo iiNet!

    @trsrpc Because the NBN rollout is a god damn joke and embaressment to the country.

    4/ Documentation gaps. Missing clearances from Sydney Water, Ausgrid, or NBN. Errors in the Section 88B instrument. A subdivision plan that doesn't meet Registrar General's Guidelines. Each gap adds weeks. A requisitioned plan resets the registration clock entirely.

    Australia'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.

    @LambDownUnder @bigboatbruce @james00000001 We never had true competition before because Telstra controlled it all. We wouldn't be in the mess if LNP didn't sell Telstra as a single entity despite being advised to split. Then they wouldn't split and participate in the nbn build similar to NZ.

    @Matt_Camenzuli @jabattoir13 @JuliaGillard I think she was worse than Turnbull. I must have missed other reasons Turnbull was terrible, but my one thing with him was wasting time and money on the NBN, we're still paying for full fibre rollout house-by-house, made sense to just do the lot once, less driving per-house.

    @JEChalmers What a goose you are @JEChalmers . Just like old @SwannyQLD who sent a broke in the GFC. We live the nightmare now of the NDIS, NBN, net zero and a parasite public service of red tape. We are broke & going off a cliff under this incompetent, corrupt treacherous Labor government.

    @kevconrad2 @TexCoolMike Use your brain as if they be taking up iPhones no cell towers In space . No nbn network for wifi routers to plug into. You think they took up charging usb cables etc for phones that don’t work ? All that weight for phones that don’t work when they could have dedicated cameras

    @PaulGugAI @OfficialLoganK @Starlink We were paying for 500gb of nbn directly to our house. Very rarely did we experience those speeds at all. We had numerous technicians come out to fix the issue and nothing changed. We got starlink delivered and set up and we havent lost anything since. We live rural too. 🇦🇺

    @ruicharadrius lol do you live in the middle of nowhere or something? NBN is fairly quick in most places. I get 250 down, 50 up for a decent amount for a decent amount and no downtime.

    @PaulineHansonOz @GreensAU2 Pauline, you should have seen the corruption when NBN kicked off. I worked in scope, design , construction, activations and repairs. I’m bound by NDAs but **** that. I’m sending you a letter that will upset a lot of people. I’m tired of playing nice.

    @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. *********.

    We pay like a $150 a month for the premium of Telstra mobile and it doesn’t even work immediately when out NBN drops. What are we even paying extra for? Fix your trash Telstra 😡😡 @Telstra

    @Qldaah If only Media Militia had gone Full Fibre to the cesspit, instead of opting for snail paced Copper NBN, they'd know that "discovery" was only a new find, mid last century & rejected as unviable, of poor quality & limited in supply.

    How ******** is the $90,000,000,000 NBN fibre to the house internet, promised 500mbs in Australia run @ 30mbs at 9.30pm on a Wednesday night??????????? Another Australian government FAILURE 😡😡😡 Starlink tomorrow! **** you @NBN_Australia

    Australia’s NBN said a new fiber internet test reached speeds above 200 gigabits per second, far beyond today’s 2 gigabit service levels.

    @NBN_Australia That’s understandable however there were basically no updates from nbn over long periods (12+ hours) throughout the outage. What the hell are nbn doing? How is the network so poorly designed that an outage for an entire suburb lasts 26 hours???!!???!

    @trsrpc For context. Australia's NBN is still be rolled out years after it was sold as the best thing ever... Yet many have incredibly unstable internet or none at all.

    @eamonhamilton Ahhh... I confess, that makes things easier. I mean, fuel is 50c/L, everyone has a B-21, NBN works, no stupid cold weather, force design whatever I want, F1 is on FTA.... Ahhhhhhh
