    @cheynejfishing @bluewavedream I expect starlink may be better than the stupid 4G modems that the NBN was giving to farmers out in the wopps But for anyone who needs reliable, fast connection or a static IP to host some server or service... Fibre or VDSL is the only way to go

    I look at this guy and all I see is rorted ****** internet. We have such poor leaders in Australia that they cant even recognise how basic, how integral, stuff like the nbn is to Australia. Still fixing yr mistakes, so stfu

    @Qldaah If only Media Militia had gone Full Fibre to the cesspit, instead of opting for snail paced Copper NBN, they'd know that "discovery" was only a new find, mid last century & rejected as unviable, of poor quality & limited in supply.

    @Someozbloke @deniseshrivell That's good in your circumstance. But it has been reported by others. I was more addressing why NBN is not a waste. The reason you still hear about it these days having issues is because of LNP screwing it up with a mixed technology approach. FTTP does not have these drawbacks.

    @LCHF_Matt @SkyNewsAust Hilarious so how is that done via NBN. How do fire, emergency services weather services, local, state and federal government agencies do this in one area. Being done now. How does an emergency text system send warnings that have gigs of data. You’re just proving you have no idea

    @ruicharadrius lol do you live in the middle of nowhere or something? NBN is fairly quick in most places. I get 250 down, 50 up for a decent amount for a decent amount and no downtime.

    @JEChalmers You aren't creating any new private sector jobs. You aren't even investing in the private sector with public companies anymore. The last one was the ****** NBN a full generation ago now. ***** sake! Found some ******* publically owned companies and show you actually ******* support growing the economy. AND GET RID OF CGT AND INCOME TAX! Hike the GST if you need to keep the revenue the same.

    @hisaflog100 The original sin was Rudd and Conroy decreeing that NBN access charges must be flat across the whole network.

    @19Andy7o Never, when the ALP is concerned they are never at fault it is always everybody else fault. They introduced NDIS,NDIA, NBN, Voice,the list is endless however always remember it is not their fault!

    @Optus we were on the phone to OPTUS for THREE HOURS to some operator in India, we just wanted to move to a faster NBN plan, and they could not migrate our old account over. NIGHTMARE and Optus are outsourcing their support to useless people in India

    @NBN_Australia idk if this is an NBN issue or my ISP issue but since about Tuesday my internet witch has FTTP all of the sudden became slow and I can’t even look up anything sometimes and my internet hasn’t been like that since I got FTTP.

    RoverDownUnder (@AJG71) reported

    @Adam_Creighton @DrCameronMurray This is what happens when you outsource what should be a government service to the private sector. Profit motive kicks in as do rorts & fraud. Also see the Unemployment Services, Housing, NBN etc. It isn't the scheme itself, it's the people who run it.

    @Thejimpenman Ask your serfs to shout you full fibre NBN Jimmy. That was under the Deposed LNP Crime org that ran up $850 additional debt, without creating one cent of legacy assett, whilst claiming to have paid down the existing $150 billion debt that took all prior govts 112 yrs to reach.

    @Borindas_Lament @pikey14 Like the NDIS or the NBN or Snowy were "costed"? They seem to be the only party talking about actually reducing spending, fraud and waste. Like all parties they will over promise and under deliver but at least they are raising these things as actual issues

    Why has NBN speeds been so slow. I’m paying for 500 mbs but getting 3-400!!! #VodafoneAU

    BigBoatBruce (@bigboatbruce) reported

    @LambDownUnder @james00000001 If you trust private business in a non competitive situation you are essential stupid. If there’s a monopoly service it’s a ripoff in the hands of private business. You must know that. NBN is a national infrastructure requirement for a civil and successful nation.

    @SocialPiranha3 Yeah I do the Aldi $23 a month on mobile and now have almost 247.6 gb rollover data ... handy when the local NBN goes down.

    @PaulGugAI @OfficialLoganK @Starlink We were paying for 500gb of nbn directly to our house. Very rarely did we experience those speeds at all. We had numerous technicians come out to fix the issue and nothing changed. We got starlink delivered and set up and we havent lost anything since. We live rural too. 🇦🇺

    @ImVicLoLagain @LCHF_Matt @pikkkkaro He is saying that wifi is not internet, that's it. I have many services at home on my local network that I use my wifi to connect to that don't use the internet (NBN) at all. Fwiw I also have 2000/500 NBN with a capable router, 10gig switch and cat6a runs that support it. My internet is great by any standards, the only thing Australia does ****** (now - it wasn't this good a couple of years ago) is that we don't have symmetrical links for consumers. The whole point though is that the idiot OP thinks that "wifi" means internet, and it doesn't.

    @macsween_prue @AlboMP @AustralianLabor To be fair Prune McBiasedBitch, the nbn AND NDIS were legislated under the dying days of an ALP government, but initial implementation were left to an incompetent *********** of successive coalition fuckups masquerading as government, which then left the damage for ALP to fix

    .@Telstra You know, it would be great if people would be notified of NBN work and interruptions at least BEFORE the internet is no longer working! I got a notification AFTER the service was restored!

    @SimonBanksHB Original cost of NBN $4b. Original cost of NDIS $13b. Who's the joke? Original cost of net zero? Who ******* knows, they never told us! ********!
