-
Felipe Restrepo (@FelipeRestrepoE) reported@NBN_Australia Nobody seems able to answer a simple question. 80 Fig St, Pyrmont NSW 2009 has a network fault. I've tried 3 ISPs and keep getting passed around. Is NBN aware of the issue, and when will it be fixed? Three weeks without an internet connection...
-
Grant Mackenzie (@GrantMa24544383) reported@1Alboforpm Considering Labor designed the NDIS, Libs and Labs together gave us the NBN, Libs and Labs the submarine fiasco? How's the tax on tobacco going in stopping smoking as opposed to feeding organised crime? Pot / kettle Their sudden growth will result in messes, poor communication and confusion between newly formed members but their sudden growth is do to the F up by these 2 major parties. Oh... and ... Fire the Liar

melb rider (@melbriderx) reportedresorting to personal hotspotting on my mac and iPad cause apparently nbn speeds in suburban melbourne are just that slow atm
-
nigel (@nigel15026948) reported@news_australian None stuffed NBN. Many farmers still have very little service, look at how much snowy 2 has and is continuing to cost.
-
Anthony Kroeger (@kr0der) reportedhow is my wifi out for 10 HOURS for a maintenance man 💀💀 during peak work hours too, 2pm-midnight “NBN are doing emergency network maintenance between Fri 12th June 2026 14:00 AEST and Sat 13th June 2026 00:00 AEST.”
-
Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reportedSo, apparently #NBN is performing maintenance in various areas of VIC, with outages up to three hours in each area. Something seems to have gone wrong with it, though, so it's now a widespread issue.
-
Harold ☢️🔥🏭⚛️ (@Harold36089778) reported@MarkoMatvikov Even worse: Labor writes new laws to force super to invest in “building back Aus” like Melb-Syd high speed rail or upgrading NBN. When competition policy allowing global carriers to compete on the Melb-Sydney flight would drive costs down & Starlink is outcompeting NBN today.
-
Erick (@Erick0341) reported@KathleenWinche3 NBN, **** happens when you’re stupid.
-
Mickamious (@MickamiousG) reportedWas there an issue with the 4G/5G network in Melbourne, Victoria today?? It seems as I got out of the CBD the network improved but within the metropolitan areas there was issues?? @Starlink at home seems to be operating fine - anyone have NBN issues?
-
Nikki Austin's Aussiegirl 💖 Love Hank & Elvis (@AbAussieGirl) reported@optus_help whenever we come to your help you throw it over to the NBN and then they handle it back to you no one ever seems to be able to solve the issue ever I've never seen such an incompetent company instead of signing up more people for your service maybe make

Scott 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇦 (@skinthent) reported@ruicharadrius If your wifi is bad, get a different AP. It is exactly the same wifi standards used globally. Or do you mean your internet connection? That isn't wifi. I have FTTP NBN. It works fine.
-
Optus (@Optus) reported@ruhejanaa Hi Rayyan, sorry to hear about your Optus NBN internet and mobile connection issue. Please send us a direct message with the details of the issue, along with your full address so that we can investigate and assist you further. Kartik
-
Jordan Wardle (@JordanWardle5) reported@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.

Chris Swan (@ChrisSw1977) reported@QBCCIntegrity Happens with every big idea. NBN Snowy Hydro NDIS The list never ends with their stuff ups.

Alan@7th両日 (@BasakaAU) reportedSeems like NBN is back up after it went down yesterday morning, phew
-
♡Dama♡ (@damatically) reportedIm liking league of dreamers books oh man...this is bad. I hope they do more free option event tbh but then again their choices is relatively cheaper but still. Law of the Beast is having a free play event and im loving it! I only downloaded LOD for NBN but now hhhh
-
Ash Rodrigues 🐯🏆 🏆 🏆 (@a_rodrodrigues) reportedHi, when is the service going to be restored in Seven Hills, QLD. It's been more than 24 hours and we havent heard what the issue is. @NBN_Australia
-
Rayyan Ahmed (@ruhejanaa) reported@Teh_Jkr @Optus @Optus I have 5 services with Optus and have been a customer for 12 years. My NBN internet has been really poor, yet I’m charged full price with no real offer. As soon as I get time from my busy life, I’ll be switching all my services.
-
poruchan 💖🌸 | Artist Alley, Reservoir (@poruchan09) reportedRestarting everything for pc and modem. NBN unstable right now. I’ll be getting food as well. Wait a moment!
-
Michael Ryan (@mickr62) reported@optus_help hi. I have had an issue with your sales chat team putting me on the wrong NBN plan
-
Wal (@wally_waldo83) reported@colonelhogans By that logic, if you’re anti Coalition hand back your tax cuts, roads, defence, the NBN and every service they funded. Governments administer public services they don’t own them.
-
💧Marilyn (@Marilynrules1) reported@TolsonKiefer @stevehearne7 @arbsmichael According to AI: The Australian Government has poured a total of approximately $35 billion into the National Broadband Network (NBN) through equity investments and capital injections.
-
John Smith (@smith_johnxxxx) reported@Sauronlordking @VDejan0000 The day that CGT was introduced. That was really the end of Australia as we knew it. Hawke and Keating also introduced HECS and fees for higher degrees. This has evolved into the current absolute nightmare with massive fees and terrible quality education. NBN was another giant Labor **** up.
-
purana (@purana) reportedBeen trying for weeks now to get a NBN service (FTTN) connected for my mother. But TPG who she was with, and who she had service moved with just gave her the run around. They said it was provisioned, yet no DSL sync light and trying to get that resolved went in circles.

stephen humble (@stephenhumble11) reported@BassonBrain @Starlink Nationalist fools wasting taxpayers money. Imagine if every country wanted their own LEO constellation the performance would be poor it would be expensive and require endless subsidy's like Australia's NBN satellite service.
