    @news_australian None stuffed NBN. Many farmers still have very little service, look at how much snowy 2 has and is continuing to cost.

    @scottjla @johannesmkx Uk hasnโ€™t got as many isolated farms etc as Australia or US but I understand from friends there is similar higher speed internet access as Australia suffered with slow install of NBN and minimal systems Back in 2021/2 when Starlink was not providing many services in UK - govt removing authorisation would not have caused major outcry but the number of services today would cause huge outcry if authorisation were removed. Also mobile Starlink is very common now. The acceptance of authorisation is part of SPCX now and impact investors - technically I suspect uk govt canโ€™t do anything other than order removal and whether the company has offices in uk will be relevant to service provision and funding for infringements Elon is VERY protective of childrenโ€™s rights so expect him to express views on how this needs implementing. His stance against Starmer goes back to when he ed public prosecutor and didnโ€™t protect children and girls against gangs.

    All I want from an RSP is suitable communication on why the service cannot be connected, and the timeframe in which the condition stopping it from being connected resolved. How hard is it to get decent feedback from the NBN co processes.

    @KatyKray73 Weirdly, Rudd's original NBN plan was way better... Fiber to the curb. Turncoat came in and said it was better to have a mix of technologies... as if incompatibility issues between different technologies never existed. It was idiotic! At the time, it was clear to me that he did that because he wanted to claim some of the expected glory of the network for himself, and to snub Labor.

    @SkullSpeedDeal I called Optus support the other day. The Indian guy on the phone literally couldnโ€™t speak coherent English, misunderstood 5G and NBN, and sounded like he was calling from a scam centre which he probably was. Got escalated to an Aussie girl, problem was immediately solved.

    A pity I didn't see how tonight's Dalts report played out on NBN News, would've been rather funny if Natasha Beyersdorf (who I think may have even worked alongside Kevin at Prime Tamworth, but I'm not 100% sure of that) made a "I think I've seen Kevin on another network" quip! ๐Ÿ˜œ

    Superloop is the 3rd RSP. Let's see if I can get more details out of them tomorrow on what path/route of the FTTN is a problem. NBN co seriously can't manage a raffle in a pub.

    @DarrylKerrigan3 @thecoastguy Yeah, it's a losers game in Technology esp. for the Government because it is too slow and too far behind the curve They'll spend all this taxpayer money implementing something that will take too long and cost too much, then something else will be created that will blow it out of the water NBN < Starlink anyone?

    @eevblog @MichaelSmicqfw Really? I think that was only in the context of your NBN being down for a week... Starlink (or any satellite internet) really isn't useful in a city like Sydney, and when lots of people insist on using it there it will only get more and more expensive. It is for rural areas.

    @RennickGBR My issue with point 3 is that for the last 2 decades, there hasnโ€™t been one federal project that was delivered on time and on budget, every single infrastructure built blew the budget completely. So itโ€™s just more spending. Snowy hydro, NBN, inland rail, hunter frigate etc

    Getting there. First time EVER since the NBN was put in by Raj and his mate...i now have a green transfer light as opposed to orange. Of course no one gave a **** there was a problem on the day. I do have some patch cables without a cat rating, so there is that. Baby steps.

    @eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

    @tzk1810 100% there's some other kind of issue going on. I've been FTTN in a country town before and still able to pull 60 down. But if you really want good internet just drop NBN altogether and go Starlink. $75 100 down and nevwr skips a beat.

    @ruicharadrius This is the most retarded tweet Iโ€™ve ever seen. A) falsely thinks WiFi is โ€œthe internetโ€ B) doesnโ€™t realise Aussie mobile coverage is some of the best in the world C) NBN is good now. My guess is your WiFi router is crap or too small for your house

    @theinfradev @ruicharadrius I'm not revising history. The plan was fttp everywhere, with Telstra and optus copper being bought out to move them to the NBN. The copper was never going to be used for the NBN. Look at the Telstra definitive agreements from 2011.

    @Hector_Herrick @Antiwoke7777 @OMGTheMess We had problems with our fibre-to-the curb NBN. their tech discovered that our old copper line was still connected to the exchange, and that was interfering with the copper line from the fibre to the house. Disconnected the old exchange line, and all was well.

    @AlboMP @DeltaGoodrem @JacintaAllanMP This is a great policy for people who have been sacked, or really from another state, with how it used to be, and have to somehow pay out the whole contract? And it's not really like that for NBN or mobile internet plans and it shouldn't be like that for private rentals either, and I've maybe g9t a red flag for renting? because this has happened to me, even though I pa8d up until I left and had a dog in the shared backyard, after I had started to rent with the real estate agent, and it should then void the contract of the rental, anyway, if I was upset with the dog being in the shared backyard. And they really wanted the full contract of the rental paid out? and even with all what I've said, it be's like to be a red flag maybe for me, for possible future rentals? and I think it has a big negative, for a more secure, two year or more rental contract, which should be better, not worse, how the old rental laws, now, were. So, this is again, great Victorian Labour policies! and ones that will make do much of a difference to people, who would of been in so much of a problem, and not really realise it, with rental contracts, and it's all like kinda NBN internet plans, which is really how it should be, especially with how house prices have inflated that much anyway.
