  • WarWraith Waz (@warwraith@aus.social) (@WarWraith) reported

    I love* that I'm getting a string of emails from the NBN Co Service Portal, but absolutely *refuse* to provide a login OR to stop sending the emails. I know something is going on somewhere that affects us, but I have to log in to find out where and what.

  • Redy5Al AL Redy (@Redy5Al) reported

    I contacted @AussieBroadband as the NBN has (allegedly) cough deliberately intervened with my Wifi connections for 4 years. Gov depts can and will do this under the veil of surveillance AND get this….they’re exempt. So why am I paying for a shonky service? Public servants beware

  • LeonardWass Leonard Wass (@LeonardWass) reported

    @betterbushcomms @NBN_Australia @MySkyMesh I've already been in contact with SkyMesh for months. I've shared dozens of emails. They asked me to test 3 times a day for 3 days. Problem still exists. I've given up for my own sanity. I am using a phone hotspot in evenings, because 1.3 mbps doesn't cut it.

  • DGoliath2 DaveVsGoliath2 (@DGoliath2) reported

    @LoveHarmony23 @The_Real_Joakim @Anthonywodillon Again, why are you making these misrepresentations of what I said? I never said the NBN worked in rural & remote areas. I stated about it's "failures"... So, can you look past your beliefs & look at the facts. Judging people by race has Never worked in the past, it wont today.

  • Malkeetst MST (@Malkeetst) reported

    @Telstra Thx. Victor Over 48hrs service interruption !!! And still no eta!!!! This not something I signed for when choosing NBN with Telstra …

  • adamson ᴡᴀʟᴛᴇʀ ᴀᴅᴀᴍsᴏɴ (@adamson) reported

    Nokia, TPG Telecom reach record speed using 5G mmWave Quick summary: Last month, Nokia announced that it has been selected by the Australian Broadband Operator NBN to supply 5G Fixed wireless access (FWA) MMWAVE CUSTOMER EQUIPMENT (CPE) for the fixed wireless network ...

  • Malkeetst MST (@Malkeetst) reported

    @Telstra This what is comes on the outage. Have removed my address details. Happy to DM it All the light on the NBN a mobiles are flashing 1/2

  • NBN_Australia nbn® Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @tigerpops69 Hi Peter, we know how frustrating outages can be. An unplanned outage means something other than scheduled maintenance is currently affecting your service. For example, a third party may have accidentally damaged underground cables or other nbn assets. 1/2

  • alexk38414339 alexk (@alexk38414339) reported

    Yet again an evening spoilt by Telstra. NBN down therefore internet down foxtel down for not the first time. Don’t bother checking Telstra outages shows that all is good. Trying troubleshooting on telstra site goes round in circles. However if you miss a payment + $15

  • dwatsonhayes Daniel Watson Hayes™ (@dwatsonhayes) reported

    @spannaforce Seriously, what's going on with it? I was building my Dad's membership pack yesterday and it was so damn slooooow. I thought it was my nbn playing silly buggers, but it must've been the portal itself if other members struggled with it

  • DamascaRamza Damasca Ramza (@DamascaRamza) reported

    @LaurenThemself @TukRoll @Shadowdragonia It's been slow on my end and I have pretty fast NBN.

  • LoveHarmony23 GWindsor23 (@LoveHarmony23) reported

    @DGoliath2 @The_Real_Joakim @Anthonywodillon Oh, I know for a fact that you've never ever been away from the major population centers in this country. Because you don't seem to realize that the nbn doesn't work out of town. Not unless you're way down south somewhere in the major population centers.

  • potatobake28 Elongated Musksticks (@potatobake28) reported

    Ok so change of dial plan settings and all sorted. Alarm dialer working with VSP primary over fibre failover to FTTdp-NBN and dial sim 4G gateway. Also handling FoIP over the fibre (haven’t tried the fail overs for this not as important)

  • Canberra_Cat James 🐀 @henjam48@tooting.ch (@Canberra_Cat) reported

    ******* NBN. Internet's down again.

  • VickieLouise7 fixated person (@VickieLouise7) reported

    @NBN_Australia Hi NBN, can you tell me why Australians have paid upwards of $50Billion for a decent service while you are busy making $10Billion a year profits on? What’s the wholesale price these days? #NeverGonnaTell #WillWeEverStopPaying? #AusPol @MRowlandMP

  • alcibiadeasy ev🌿 (@alcibiadeasy) reported

    @beybladekingdom Nice people invited me into an iwtv discord yesterday so i can spare twitter pals my mania, but I haven't even looked at it because of my garbage data. So it is annoying timing! 'There's no nbn fault!' And yet here I am, with none for 24 hours. How's your own wifi quest?

  • MarshieTV Marshie 💖 (@MarshieTV) reported

    Was gonna stream before I leave for schoolies tomorrow mornin but my nbn is down so seeya in a week ig (am still tiktokking)

  • u_hardy Frumi 🐀 @umi@aus.social Mastodon (@u_hardy) reported

    @ozwildflower Well it's slow for me because we don't get the nbn...it cuts out across the road from us even though we're just across from hospital. But right in town itself most would be nbn connected I'd think.

  • maz_net_au Maz (@maz_net_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia The fault is that NBN is selling me fixed line internet over 40 year old copper phone lines nailed to trees and has no plan to upgrade it at all, then quoted me more than $32k to build your network for you.

  • Gregory91065541 Gregory Smith I support the current thing (@Gregory91065541) reported

    Love living in Oz. The NBN is down again should be called No Bloody Network

  • officercocklock ****** Monster (@officercocklock) reported

    @holy_schnitt for aussies if you have a problem with your electronics or NBN just go on whirpool

  • CarersAdvocates Carers and Advocates Australia Pty Ltd (@CarersAdvocates) reported

    I’m concerned about the NBN in disasters. When there’s a blackout there is no redundancy people are cut off with no phone. The old system drew power from the line. We must fix this. @PMalinauskasMP @joe_szakacs

  • tigerpops69 Peter P (@tigerpops69) reported

    @NBN_Australia every 2-3 weeks several hour outages 😡… again from 8am this morning to now and still not up. “ unplanned power outage is affecting your area” McKinnon 3204- 😡😡😡😡 Just turn the “power back ok”! Or is that the general “we have no clue” default notification

  • Ryan_1994_SA Ryan (@Ryan_1994_SA) reported

    @NBN_Australia what’s happening now the internet was working for a day in goowla beach 5214 now it’s down again. I checked the status and it says unplanned outage like it did a few days ago. I thought you had fixed the problem ?

  • cupiscent Davinia Evans (Dee) (@cupiscent) reported

    @BiancaNogrady There's an app called debirdify, but it's running a little slow for me right now, and I'm not sure if it's because twitter's janky or everyone's using it (or, that old standby: the bloody nbn)

  • PeterKlages Peter Klages (@PeterKlages) reported

    @mssquiggs65 I’m on that awful NBN satellite service - the one that doesn’t work in bad weather. Having said that, NBN and iiNet have always been pretty responsive to any issues I’ve had. I’m assuming you’re on NBN. What’s happened?

  • Grumpy2EB LSJ (@Grumpy2EB) reported

    I answer the phone "Hello?" "Hello, this is (such and such) from the NBN how can I help you?" "err you called me"

  • Ben_En Ben (@Ben_En) reported

    @Optus I sent a DM complaining about poor service I got yesterday fixing NBN fault. But the poor service continued. First person i get a message from Kartik, second Mary responds now Harrison is talking to me. Both Mary and Harrison asked me for the same info within 2min of each other

  • LoveHarmony23 GWindsor23 (@LoveHarmony23) reported

    @DGoliath2 @The_Real_Joakim @Anthonywodillon You said that communities have the same access to the internet. How is that possible if the nbn doesn't work out of town where the communities are? And even if it did, how would they understand it, if they can't speak English? You seem to think that all Aboriginals live in town?

  • physiokirsty Kirsten Saffy (@physiokirsty) reported

    @NBN_Australia we run a small business in NSW and our service provider has told us they've been "waiting for an update from NBN" for days about when a technician can come out to us. Meanwhile, we're unable to operate our business while we're waiting. How can we resolve this?
