Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@FannyFitch Maybe they need to go back to the fail-safe future, using Labors' Full Fibre NBN, that Vested Interests installed the LNP Crime Org Puppet Junta to nobble with stone age Copper. It operated well, for over 65 years, even on iron age Copper, before being sent into the cloud.

Hayley Katona (@HayleyKatona) reported@Fiances_ We’ve improved the state of every property we’ve rented (built gardens, mostly). But yet, rent goes up and up and up. Currently dealing with a $300 bill for installing an NBN fibre box inside which increases internet speed 10 fold, and the landlord is making us relocate it for the amazing low price of $770 (wants it moved 2 metres down the wall it’s on). Ugh

brad 🇦🇺 (@Patriot__au) reported@leftright314 The nbn was dead before it even started. Putting a 1970's tech in the ground in the 2000's was retarded. But now we are going to waste more money trying for peak retard. Putting up a 3rd rate satellite network with a bloke who rockets blow up before launch. Typical labor.

Garfield C. Reynolds (@GarfieldR1966) reported@NBN_Australia when are you going to fix internet connectivity in St Ives. At least two weeks of regular dropouts and slow service and it just keeps getting worse
-
daytona (@daytona7th) reported@tim_blee You would think that if you relied on the mobile network to receive payments then you would have a backup should the particular network fail. Maybe have an Optus or Vodafone SIM card handy or re-route your payment system to the NBN? No sympathy for unprepared businesses.
-
Wil Burston (@wilburston) reported@OMGTheMess Twice the ALP voted down Howard with forward looking telecoms infrastructure 1. Mid 80’s when universal ISDN connections were proposed, aka digital telephony 2. Early 2000’s national CDMA network covering 99% of the landmass for IOT devices Then we were mandated the NBN…
-
Lamill (@LamillLoL) reportedConstant internet drop outs for weeks, network status always says no outage. Currently down and no end in sight. I need answers!! @NBN_Australia
-
Mick Kase (@MickKase) reported@TruthdriverOn Telstra is a dinosaur. The sooner Australia realises this, the better. The NBN has been a sad episode in Australia's history and continues to be. Snowy 2.0 is a disaster and will continue to cost Millions and may not even operate. Federal Gov. is the problem. Are you awake yet!
-
The Opinionated Veteran (@the_vocal_one) reported@ianclarkeAU @CovfefeDnUnder Mate, you're talking to a @Starlink customer... I use it on the Gold Coast, and I'll likely never go back to the NBN, even though I can get fiber, largely because I refuse to pay for something that is intentionally outdated. Outside of the cities, #Starlink is the answer.
-
Michael🧙 (@mich___l) reported@VoteLewko @2GB873 Starlink is great if you're mobile, but you never want to use it to replace the nbn residential connections. The speeds and latency you get from a fttn/fttp connection are leagues better.
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@pigways @Batman2242 NBN satellites have been in service since 2013 that provided a significantly improved service for remote and regional areas. Starlink only arrived in the last few years. Perhaps Amazon was able to meet the design and contract requirements set by #nbn and starlink couldn't.
-
Chris Aitchison (@ChrisAitchiso14) reported@craigkellyAFEE i actually thought it would of been way more than that, not that i like the bloke but for once his budget hasn't blown to to NBN porportions. I'm trying to get the AI to work out how many Starlink Service Networks to cover Australia. The slowest speed availiable 100Mbps, $75, UNLIMITED. To basically run a fishing line size string from a pit to the home, bolt on 2 Boxes, connect the fishing wire and bobs your uncle.. So if the Blowout was 10 or 14 Billion on a fishing wire size cable, can you image the shitshow it will be on the blowout to run all the transmission for their NOT so green energy. Lets hope we don't have to look at their muppet heads in a ocuple of yearsd, bloodty trainwrecks they are

Nick Hendrix (@hendrix_uk) reported@bazzacc2 Including Malcolm Turnbull who changed the specs of the @NBN_Australia from FTTP to FTTN, thus relying on old copper to transmit from the node to the dwelling It slowed down our broadband speeds significantly to save a few dollars How many billions have we lost in productivity?
-
EGP Quantitative (@AggressiveQuant) reportedAs a recent customer of Starlink, this has to be among the biggest runways in business. Only ~500k connections in Australia, apparently still >8.5m suffering through our joke of an NBN... That's just the opportunity in our little tinpot country.
-
Johannes Weissman (@jway1969) reported@Starlink How about Australia has a quarter decent NBN Howard was promised one for 4.5 billion in 2004.. but Liberterians OMG globalist atlas network doesn't support actual capitalism just forced brand buying and interrupting aholed
-
KR (@keenkellie1) reported@FinancialReview Seriously just take the last two major projects snowy 2.0 and nbn you get cost blow outs, inefficiency and poor returns, instead of your retirement money compounding at 7-10% in the best companies on earth what could go wrong
-
Dane Trethowan (@grtdane) reported@TimLooker @ABCaustralia I knew our communications system was down the tube with no stopping it when NBN bought the Copper Wire Network from Telstra and start decommissioning it, we should have had our Copper Network (which served us well) continue to do so along side Fibre etc.
-
Wal (@wally_waldo83) reported@Batman2242 A big part of our productivity problem is that starting from the 2010's more of our spending now goes to megatech platforms that extract Australian revenue without the old local multiplier. When $100 went to Ford or Holden, a retailer or a local media company, a large portion recycled through local wages, suppliers, property, logistics and tax. Now when $100 goes to a global ad platform, streaming service or cloud provider much more can disappear offshore through IP, reseller fees and related party charges with far less local employment or supplier spend despite the use of infrastructure like NBN and roads. So government keeps importing demand and taxing workers harder to fund services while more private spending leaks offshore to low local footprint platforms. That extraction is not productive for our economy and is increasingly an issue, especially when profits are being offshored and Australian taxpayers are unfairly carrying the burden.

Kribby 🦊🔥 Soulfire Kitsune (@KribbyVT) reportedWhen my internet stops conking out I will be UNSTOPPABLE… but until then I sit in the corner and sob 🥺 nbn please fix it
-
Melanie Usher (@mjgal) reportedScheduled power outage and NBN outage. It’s a very Amish Monday morning.
-
Garfield C. Reynolds (@GarfieldR1966) reported@NBN_Australia Here I am almost 2 weeks later and still regular interruptions while NBN lists our address as subject to network degradation. I have contacted my provider and they then check with NBN and I am told work is ongoing. But nothing gets fixed!!!!
-
Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@Juzira You really should get Full fibre NBN History does not support that view, except in Hansons micro fringe cult & within Murdochs LNP Crime Org.
-
Olga Teresa Marr (@OlgaTeresaMarr) reported@TheUSFeedX Yes I would because it’s a good service. But my service just went from $136 a month to $150 a month, yet the local NBN in Australia is about $85 a month.
-
🇦🇺Glenn McDonald (@Glenn_SoilAgro) reported@WheatWatcher @NBN_Australia Our router was supplied but does help when the router says there is no internet connection 🙄
-
Paradoxa (@Paradoxa18) reported@CC68891975 @SistaRuthDOPD those of us who live where the threat is real now face summer without even basic telecommunications 4G's terrible Telstra contractor trying to fix landlines, out for more than a month, agreed VicEmergency requires data on just for alerts no nbn no wifi hope the new system works
-
Mark A (@MarkA5859) reportedI really am angry the LNP rooted the NBN. Now I have to seriously consider Musk’s Starlink for my Internet especially since both Telstra & Optus have & are having issues.
-
Kevin Metcalfe (@KevinMe49077436) reported@AlanBixter Why, we spent a fortune on the NBN, just go to the countries news service and watch it there.
-
VersionNaught (@nathan_knows) reported@strangerous10 A lot of people forget the NBN was in part to shift the fixed broadband service monopoly from Telstra.

Jo Tan (@8jotan8) reported@iiNet internet has been down since Saturday… ref: 500039344 Love the no show today 1pm to 5pm! I had to call you to find out? When are you attending the basement for 308 Pitt st?? Line sync is still down! It’s 2026 #outage #internet #nbn
