rustikalfox 🌿 (@kaijuergs) reportedwasn't notified of the @NBN_Australia planned outage today and just spent the last 30 minutes thinking wtf wrong with this thing 💀
-
Hardware Unboxed (@HardwareUnboxed) reportedAll this talk about personal computing dying and what not, I (Steve) decided to try GeForceNOW (Australia) Ultimate using Wireless NBN, Starlink and 5G. My review is this: It's really bad, f@&ing sucks. Thank you for your time.
-
Patrick Houston (@PetrucHouston) reported@news_australian No losers, we want Pauline. Stop trying to pave the way for the election fraud that controls this shitshow. Over 100%? Wtf does that even mean? Perfect NBN? Are you fkn serious? He’s a WEF globalist shill.
-
ich bin RAT seeking (@pjhmccann65) reported@smith_johnxxxx @Sauronlordking @VDejan0000 NBN was not a '**** up', until Abbott became PM.
-
Tulip 💐 (@cutelipsxx) reportedWhen I went into the carport, the light was on, the power point was turned off and the ethernet cable ripped out and the port was broken. He had taken the cover off the NBN box and that's what woke me up- when he was putting it back on. Pretty sure he was looking for a spare key
-
GregM (@Gmeister67) reported@WSWanderingEels @ardmorelad Yep Aus govt also own the NBN network who mainly use the Telstra network, amongst other smaller players. Everyone gets a drink
-
Matt Henderson (@MattxH) reported@BanderaBeau @BikoKonstantin1 @AlboMP It doesn’t work because each government is interested in keeping power that the next government wouldn’t implement the next step. Massive changes like this can only get over the line if the solution is obvious & unanimous. Even then one single government can **** things up eg NBN
-
Annoyingly Right (@laughingconser1) reported@GregMarSci I assume you are referring to those educated under the Gillard national curriculum. Is there any part of government that has not been ****** up by Labor? What is worse is a LNP too cowardly to fix ****-shows like Education, NDIS, NBN, Indigenous affairs.....the list just goes on.
-
Never vote LNP. (@LNPvoterfail) reported@derf17k LNP would have destroyed my Super given half a chance. As with NBN, NDIS, the car industry, refineries, environment.... Just **** right off @der17k
-
John the Baptist (@JohntheBapt1ser) reported@ruicharadrius This is the most retarded tweet I’ve ever seen. A) falsely thinks WiFi is “the internet” B) doesn’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
-
Max (@diss_presso) reported@BrowntownBrew @robb_j_m Most of our national capital Canberra is on <100mbps whilst literal 3rd world **** hole islands, without NBN or paved roads, get triple that. Anyone who actually believes in the NBN is as brainwashed as a Putin supporter. Starlink has made the NBN largely redundant for non gaming purposes, and the 5G network is already 3 times faster and both cost taxpayers exactly $0.00. Rudd should go down in history as the king of morons.

elohiyaxo 💖 (@AmotherslovePTK) reportedHEY SORRY, NBN STUCK BEAM ONTO MY EYE, ITS CONNECTED TO THE 5G AUSTRALIAN NETWORK COS OF THE FEDERAL BLUE PULL UPS I ORDERED SO VIVID GOES UNTIL MY LICENCE RUNS OUT SORRY NOT REALLY BUT JUST TRYING OUT MY PARLIAMENTALITY WHY IS IT SO HARD TO HAVE SYMPATHY ARE U TIN MEN?

BanjoT (@BanjoT17) reportedBlack friends I served with in the military told me to watch out for *******. Being from Idaho I said it was a derogatory term for them wasn’t it? No, ******* are violent, irresponsible, parasites causing all the problems, stay away from them. One of them, Levi, always said NBN, ******* be ******* when there was trouble. I just listed to a couple of black females just as tired as the rest of us but threatening to orhanize against them.
-
Weird Uncle Bob (@julerin8) reported@DavePhippen After 8 calls totalling 12 hours to NBN co and Telstra I found the magic key: Just say "Ombudsman" Service person arrived the next day and a new modem the same week.
-
Taya Nielsen: StuffTrump! ICE OUT! (@TayaNielsen2) reportedChifley established the PBS. Whitlam built Medibank. Keating started national superannuation. Hawke dumped tariffs to help Aussie farmers & their exports. Rudd built the NBN. Gillard built the NDIS. So, what exactly DID the LNP do in all those years??
-
Erick (@Erick0341) reported@KathleenWinche3 NBN, **** happens when you’re stupid.
-
ADAMan 🧫🧠 (@hoskyidiots) reported@craigkellyAFEE @Sauronlordking Free internet would be cheaper than FTA TV FTA TV (FY2025-26) Total estimated annual government expenditure/support on all FTA TV A$1.64 billion NBN Financial year 2025, ended 30 June 2025), NBN Co’s total operating expenses were approximately A$1.6 billion.
-
JILL (@1Swinging_Voter) reportedWOW. Was that Mike Kaiser perched up next to that Murray Watt snot from #QLDPOL at #ESTIMATES today? WOW still got his snout in the corrupt Labor trough. Remember he was handed that NBN job by Stephen Conroy no application needed. WTF is he doing now on the public **** #CANBERRA
-
Strata Owners Alliance (Australia) (@strataownersaus) reportedThis should NEVER happen. We have written to the federal minister and the NBN objecting to this and to clarify their total expenditure here. This data was all procured directly from the SCA 2026 Conference Sponsorship website page. (7/7)
-
Spicy Ice (@SpicyIce7) reported@yannikau2 @AmanogawaShiina Makes no difference to me. I ain't buying **** no point. Because Australia is governed by the mentally retarded I have been waiting for nbn the government run fiber network to connect my home internet since December amd still waiting.
-
Mary Mary Quite Contrary🐭 (@biba_nova) reported@GATESDK We should really switch, we have no problems up at the property with the Starlink, but the NBN here in the city is pathetic, sick of hot spotting off my phone.
-
Dr Andrew Meyenn (not MD) (@19yma19) reported@TimWilsonMP Lets think: ICAC??, No cuts to ABC/SBS, NBN faster cheaper?? You lot are up to ears in it. The broken promise is at best 25% as it only applies to new builds and you can take the old idea too. Get off the BS cigar mate
-
💧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.
-
Charlie (@charlietech) reported@gav_mck I ran into that with my uncle in Maleny. The crowding for Starlink meant no space. He has it now (waited in que like every1) but its why NBN are pushing their service to market asap with Amazon leo. At least you have options!!
-
P J Bird 😷 Vaxed 🎶 🌈 🇺🇦 🇯🇴 🏴 (@PJbird_01) reported@suzanne2222 Another LNP disaster just like the NBN has cost Aussies billions to fix
-
John Cas (@moresunshine_1) reported@Sauronlordking If there is one thing I didn't mind from the ALP that would be the NBN in its original form. Then this idiot came around and mutilated it into his own little mixed up mess. That now has to be unraveled at even more expense!!!
-
Steve (@JarOfSteve) reported@algorithmsayshi Tried clearing app cache ? Could be using CGNAT as well. Getting a static IP from ISP could fix the issue. Also, you could try turning off the NBN box for twenty minutes to see if you can pick up a new IP that's not flagged.
-
🖤Carly🤍 (@Carlsie555) reportedTrying to Work from Home and my internet has **** itself….again. 🙄 Been on hold to the help desk for the past 45 mins trying to sort. Anyone suggest a good nbn provider that doesn’t drop out?
-
FlyingDropBear - Twatter - full of bots. (@FlyingDropBear) reported@5BNylonTip Kind of like the Coalition govt pumping FTTN tech for the NBN where we'd need Air Conditioned cabinets in the street to cool the active network gear, instead of just installing passive(ish) Fibre Optics. AU is not super intelligent when it comes to tech, from a govt perspective.
