CryptoVegeta 🟠 NFTARMY (@opieaccount4) reported@TMFScottP I was a gamer and hated ADSL living outside of a state capital it was ****. NBN to me personally would have been great, but blowing that money that money on shortsighted populism didnt sit well with me. Seemed shortsighted.
-
Baiaphilia (@baiaphilia) reportedWhat happened was what always happens when it's a project run by the government. It failed miserably, and went way over budget. The NBN was so bad I begged my provider to give me back my previous internet connection. But they couldn't because they forced them to shut it down.
-
GeneralChat |🍍🍌| Charity Donothon 29th-7th (@General_Ch4t) reportedOK to explain the reason for missing my own Anniversary stream... basically there was a brief blackout here caused by a transformer blowing and it fried the NBN, so until a technician can come around on Tuesday I have no internet beyond my phone... I will try to make fir it somehow
-
Ross (@Ross98329500) reported@motorcymick everything this guy touched, still trying to fix the NBN, false prophet
-
jagdtigger (@panzer_VI) reported@eevblog If that is the mobile plan you bought, TBH it was to be expected. Every NBN customer in that same are is looking for an easy temporary solution......
-
BluntHonesty 🇦🇺🤝🇮🇱 (@BluntHonesty4) reported@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.
-
🦞🐀🍩🗣🙏🏻👣💧nunthewizer (@nunthewizer53) reportedWell knock me down after neo con mixed donor I mean mixed technology NBN who could have predicted it.
-
Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reportedWow... #Starlink have dropped their price to around 1/10th of what it was, to try to attract customers in Australia, who are mainly, of course, on the #NBN. And for the first four months it's even cheaper than that, during their current promotion. Just a shame it's so slow.

Alexandra Online 💅 (@AlexandraOn1ine) reportedWDYM MY ENTIRE SUBURB HAS AN NBN OUTAGE??!! I just wanna stream and play Wizard101 😔😭
-
Antking66 (@Antking1966) reported@robb_j_m Not only that the NBN unbelievably has never made a profit
-
MR Reilly (@mrr78504) reported@econoadabsurdam @LeeRespecter The NBN might plausibly have increased productivity if it had retained its original scope (A FTTN fibre backbone network independent of Telstra that would allow telecommunication companies to compete on an equal footing). Instead it got rolled out first in Tasmania.
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@pointman69 @CefaiJason @robb_j_m 10 years and $30b wasted on LNPs stupid idea. All the whole Turnbull invested in fibre rollouts in Europe and the supplier of copper to the nbn
-
TK (@tk_bulba) reportedAfter numerous issues with @Telstra NBN were decided to give @Aussie_BB a try. Never again. For a company that prides itself on customer support this is the worst connection experience I’ve encountered. Allegedly now an NBN wide issue is preventing new connections.
-
Candace Tomlinson (@aukuschampion) reported@EnergyWrapAU That’s okay, the NBN is the most expensive internet on the planet. The NDIS is the most expensive support scheme for disabled people on the planet. But Australians can afford it! Can’t you? Journalists surely can, why else wouldn’t they complain?
-
Tony Hughes (@ArealHughes) reported@AlanBixter Our communications infrastructure system is not good enough. After the Turnbull NBN debacle and massive cost blowouts we still have inferior IT infrastructure. My internet is slow but works OK, however ph reception is woeful and I'm 40'ks from the coast of seventh largest city.
-
My Brother in Antichrist (@0delay1) reported@CazAusie @TimjboAU Medicare. Superannuation. HECS. NBN. Gun reform. Fair Work. Disability support. Paid parental leave. Minimum wage increases. Universal healthcare & education funding. ‘I can’t recall’ just means you didn’t look.
-
Wesley Van Der Wit (@aussi3dutchman) reported@TheJawnzz @robb_j_m You were on a **** deal you can get 100mb/s NBN for $500/year. Shop around, look for deals.
-
Ferrousoxide (@Ferrousoxi29174) reported@highbrow_nobrow @Acyn Can we put this charlatan on mute. His NBN fix was a disaster. His hydro scheme also a disaster. Shut up Malcom. You are clearly an imbecile.
-
Yvonne (@YBartolovic) reportedLots and sometimes can’t even get 1mpbs Not joking Not nbn though but still **** house
-
💥Dr Robb 🎓Social conscience? Follow me. No MAGA (@robb_j_m) reportedTo my Aussie friends: Wasn't the idea behind the NBN (National Broadband Network) to ensure that everyone had access to free (or at the very least inexpensive) internet? What happened? How much are you paying for internet access?
-
Dodgy Looks (@LooksDodgy) reported@robb_j_m Live out bush and had Satelite NBN - absolute crap - $89 pm. Telstra signal - absolute crap - $74 - 50Gig - pm. Swapped - Starlink - perfect internet and wifi calling - $139 pm - unlimited. Downgraded sim card to a cheap telstra operator - $25 pm. So total internet and phone went from $163 to $164 pm. That extra $1 quadrupled the speed and reception!
-
Aus throttle (@austhrottle) reportedI usually hate most government spending, but sometimes they get things right. The inland rail was a good project. Cancelling the inland rail is a terrible decision. It is just as important as the NBN, and in this case there isn’t a foreseeable technology that will replace it in 10 years time. Rail is insanely energy and labor efficient compared to trucks. Trucks should only be used for end of journey in a well optimised system.

Communal Noodle (@Communal_Noodle) reported@eevblog @Aussie_BB NBN = No Bloody Network.
-
Pat Caplice (@tassiepatrat) reported@robb_j_m $90 a month. NBN Wireless through Telstra. Good service. Few faults. 6 person house so many devices.
-
D Taylor (@travelbizzau) reported@Boom_ThatHurt @AvidCommentator The NBN was already billions over budget, years behind schedule and drowning in rollout failures before Abbott changed a thing. Labor sold a Ferrari, delivered a **** box, then blamed the next driver for the smoke coming out of the bonnet.

loksta!🗣 ❤️. . (@locky82903378) reported@ScreamyB0I @TheIshikawaRin Totally ridiculous to think they all be taking phones that don’t work no signal cell towers in space , no nbn internet cable for a router to plug into , no wi fi on board , the weight of the phones chargers cables etc x 4 is stoopid when every gram counts . Total sci fi nonsense
-
Peter Strachan (@Peter_Strachan) reported@NBN_Australia, I have had no NBN service since the 11th of April in Cottesloe, WA. The date for reconnection keeps moving out. Do you have any serious information on when it will return and what is the problem?
-
Carmel Fay (@CarmelFay) reported@robb_j_m Starlink. Prior to that we had a satellite connection through the NBN in our rural area which was a bit of a nightmare. They brought in this 'fair use' clause that if you went over a certain amount, you'd get suspended, but it was never terribly clear if you were approaching your limit. It was a rolling limit. I don't know if they still have it. Probably. And then our plan, the larger one, was removed and we were put on some weird sort of plan that gave us no real allocation where we couldn't even watch youtube. Really shabby way to treat customers. Starlink is reliable, has good speeds and no limits on usage, and we never get throttled. It's about $135 a month, but we're happy to pay. We'd never go back to NBN.
-
ronnymouse (@ronnymouse7) reported@eevblog this is why we have a fixed wireless connection as a backup, the NBN backbones they're connected to rarely go down
-
Rusty (@IainRusty) reported@robb_j_m Just signed for Starlink. $49/m for 4 months and $69/m after. **** the NBN
