    How are we supposed to call for emergency When power goes out so does the phone thanks to stupid NBN.

  • Rebus0906 Rebus Of The North (@Rebus0906) reported

    @AnarchistDicky Years ago had a line fault pre NBN ... had ADSL. Telstra tech attended. Ran out if time, will be back Monday, that was over 3 years ago. Never seen or heard of again. FTTN arrived, had to live with the hand I was dealt. Bye Telstra...The enemy of the people.

  • Cazoperadag Carolyn Wright (@Cazoperadag) reported

    @Telstra Hi Telstra, for a couple of days my NBN internet has been glacially slow. Can’t view a YouTube clip of 4 mins, tiny film clips on Twitter don’t load for ages. I have turned it off and on again. No improvement. First time this has happened. I am the only user. Any ideas?

  • ThatTallKiwiGuy Yvan J Drake (@ThatTallKiwiGuy) reported

    Is our IP dynamically assigned? If I bounce the NBN box, will that assign us a new one to circumvent the issue?

  • Roberto_ROC181 Rob181 Easts🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 (@Roberto_ROC181) reported

    @NBN_Australia It went back yesterday BUT now we have had a power outage here, and since the power has returned about 30 mins ago, we still have the NBN box not working.

  • MeteorIam Lonemeteor (@MeteorIam) reported

    @NBN_Australia The service quality is absolutely disgusting. I pay top level and I cannot even get proper coverage in Mansfield Victoria. Continuous cut outs, buffering. The laughing stock when somebody on a banana box in Iraq has better service.

  • mike_roberts_66 Mike Roberts (@mike_roberts_66) reported

    @Telstra Home without me tethering computer to phone (it didn't help enough) and NBN would be here on Saturday. Well, NBN technician showed up and said the same thing a technician said about four visits ago ... that they'd need a cherrypicker to do it from the outside of unit.

  • WilliamOvertell Paul Williams (@WilliamOvertell) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @David_Speers @InsidersABC Everything you touch turns to ****.... the NBN, $30 million dodgy deals, attempted bullying of the ABC..... your "career" is a string of embarrassments. We all know that they only wheel you out for the white noise of bad news.... listeners tune out within 5 words of your drivel.

  • primeries Kate (@primeries) reported

    @NBN_Australia hi, is there an outage in 4032?? Cant get online since yesterday. Isp says its nbn down.

  • Ducky306 Ducky (@Ducky306) reported

    Hey @VodafoneAU Why has my NBN speed gone to 10mbps max sometimes around 1 for the last 2 days. When im paying for a 50 down and had that Thursday. And my ip location is in Sydney,and im in Adelaide. Ive done all the restart and nothing worked

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @ScottMorrisonMP When are you going to clamp down on the #NBN_Fraud? We are NOT getting the Technical or Customer Service that the NBN promised... Not to mention Internet services that just DON"T work, but NBN Tech can't be bothered showing up to investigate & cancel appointments

  • kiwipeso Andrew McPherson (@kiwipeso) reported

    @iapplecarter Would it be quicker to catch a flight to New Zealand to do a month's worth of internet downloads compared to the Not Broadband Network @NBN_Australia ?

  • XobiaCyan Xobia (@XobiaCyan) reported

    NBN is worse than what we had before... how ******** do you spend millions of dollars to go backwards.

  • GoodyPunch ✊🏽💧🌱🐨🔥Goody Love Punch (@GoodyPunch) reported

    @Akarnious Paul Fletcher? That bloke should be sacked. NBN? Crap, rip-off, slow, expensive and unreliable. Not exactly living up to his ‘remit’. No, not at all. Useless as a so called ‘communications Minister’

  • ozbob13 ozbob13 (@ozbob13) reported

    @iPrimusAU NBN down, no internet no phone at Goodna Qld.

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia The whole Wholesale model is flawed, the whole technology being rolled out is flawed.. Any Communications engineer will tell you its CRAP! Would have been better off leaving it to Optus & Telstra to run out their own solution - Better Quality, better service and cheaper for GOVT

  • petemullinsart Pete Mullins (@petemullinsart) reported

    @NBN_Australia Still an issue. Is there someone here in Australia I can contact??!!!

  • Mikeistheworst Mike Jennings (@Mikeistheworst) reported

    Just trying to get off my bad 4g Optus plan and upgrade to their not that good NBN plan, been chatting to their reps for an hour and a half now, and was just asked to confirm I was relocating and wanted to set up internet at my new location... wut?! No!? How!?

  • MikeButler44 Mike Butler (@MikeButler44) reported

    @NBN_Australia Mine came on again yesterday but off again now. Can you confirm if there is another outage ASAP please?

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @Tiinsky Hi Tina, nbn attempts to limit non-essential maintenance to minimise scheduled, planned outages to maintain network availability as much as possible. 1/2

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia Pity there isn't an alternative, as I am sure Optus, Telstra and a bucket load of other internet providers wish there was... NBN have pitiful technical service and appalling customer service. Time for a HUGE Shake up!

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia Hi Sarah, This is NOT an isolated incident.. I know of this happening to people right across Sydney... NBN cancelled TWO visits to my Father's house, arranged by Telstra and the only notification we got was when we rang Telstra to find out why no one showed.

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia Oh, and by the way, WHERE is the HUGE speed improvement you promised me over the ADSL2+ Service I had ??? the ADSL2+ WAS faster..... Pitiful at best, If it was private enterprise, People would call it FRAUD & demand their money back....

  • cartridgepink Agnes Forrester (@cartridgepink) reported

    NBN is down again after something like a 15 hour outage yesterday. During that time I cleaned every single thing I own, so this time around I might muck around and master a second language

  • VanessaRiley61 💧Vanessa Riley (@VanessaRiley61) reported

    @JanSummersalt They told me when the NBN was put in there's a problem with the phone line in your house you will have to sort it out yourself.

  • PoE_fanatic James Smart (@PoE_fanatic) reported

    @taxicliff @NBN_Australia Yes, in the eastern suburbs of Brisbane to be precise. I am going to tether my phone to my desktop and hoping the 4G network doesn't fail.

  • RonRumple Ron Rumple (@RonRumple) reported

    @1PatriotForLife NO when they rolled out OUR NBN I keep Losing it & it took 2yrs to get it working then when MODEM IS RESET you lose it again & they have 2 do it on their end 2 FIX IT but Iam Against MOBILE PHONES & dont carry 1

  • Sue_Weber Sue Weber (@Sue_Weber) reported

    @KelexKrypton @Telstra Yes agree just left Telstra & moved to Tangerine finally have NBN since about a couple of weeks ago. Telstra still own all the lines & towers so they don’t really care about us. Now to sell my Telstra shares. Moved my mobile service to Aldi. $7.40 per month instead of $30

  • markwati Taraivini Wati (@markwati) reported

    NBN is crapping itself again tonight. Slow as. I have ended up turning it off and hot-spotting things to my mobile. This is beyond ridiculous. #shitNBN
