💧Elizabeth Marr (@JmarrMarr) reportedNBN News If the Greek food truck guy cannot afford an extra $100 per week for fuel & has to increase the menu prices then he must be running a lousy business. He should wear the hit & keep his loyal customers, there won’t always be a fuel problem

nbn® Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported@use_insert Hi there, during an unplanned outage on the nbn network we keep your service provider up to date on all available updates like estimated restoration times and details of what's being done to fix the outage itself. As soon as we have any updates, we'll let your RSP know. 1/2
-
Ky Broome (@KyBroome35) reportedNow almost 5 hours into NBN being out for an unknown reason... Pretty pathetic tbh As such videos of Trade Targets and Team Reveals might be slow and late getting out
-
The Sentient Eye Brows of John Winston Howard (@DimTimWilsonMP) reported@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
-
Studio WyldFurr (@WyldFurr) reportedAustralia's crappy NBN strikes again, network is so bad I can't maintain a smooth connection to YouTube. So no livestream today. I'll see if I can make some videos and post a montage.
-
Jay Jay (@JayJay1094727) reported@deniseshrivell All the telcos are pushing nbn. I’ve been on 5g for 4 yrs after issues with NBN. Last week my power adapter died on the router & they tried to convince me I needed a new NBN plan because 5g doesn’t work at our address. I gave up and bought a power adapter for $12 … 1/2
-
Mark (@markhumooney) reported@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
-
🦺 Benedict Harris (@benedict303) reported@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
-
David FarleyBrain 🍄🔭Keep Alaska Canadian!! (@Coffeedaveoz) reported@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.
-
The Lord (@lord_tizza) reportedAnd Telstra support said it was a fault, after a hour and a half of trouble shooting. I checked NBN and looks like a service outage in our area - checked a couple of addresses in our road. How long do these usually take to resolve? I was looking forward to a good long weekend :(
-
Sir Peter the Bogan (@P_bogan) reportedSince Labor came back in, NBN speeds have doubled for the same $$$. But only for those on FTTP. Which the Libs ****'d up for 9 years thanks to Mr Internet Malcolm Turnbull. #qt
-
LawHealthTech (@LawHealthTech) reported@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

Ezzeddine | عزالدين (@ezzh_) reported@m1nhaxo That’s nbn for you it’s garbage
-
🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reportedJust spent 1.5hrs with my ISP figuring out why my NBN had died. He (from Indian, a nice chap) put me through hoops & then said that the NBN box is faulty but can't get a tech out till next Tue. Then a light bulb moment hit me & said, what if I look at the metre box - sure enough, something had tripped the circuit in the room the NBN is hooked up to. I just didn't need the added stress. Then he had the hide to ask me to 'rate his service'. Yeah - nah!
-
jethro4445 🦉 (@cornhuskerj) reportedSo last week @Telstra rang out of the blue to ask if I had requested to change my nbn to another provider as they had received an order to transfer my service. I said no and the agent said okay he’d cancel the transfer order Then on Friday I received a message
-
Bodgie Steve (@BodgieSteve) reported@Riogallica Didn't know you could contact NBNco. I've had 3 NBN boxes **** up (nearby lightning 🌩 strike) Contact provider. Ausie BB, 1-3 days. Next door has Optus, 1-2 weeks.
-
Ryan Emery (@ryanremery) reportedSo the FTTN service that had been supposedly canceled is now working. @VodafoneAU claimed it was my modem. I'm using that same modem/router connected to the NBN fibre optic. Either it's a miracle or something broken got fixed.
-
Oscar Le (@oscarlehuu) reportedPlease make it a bit cheaper in Australia. Australian NBN is ****.
-
Ziggy the 3rd (@3rd_ziggy) reportedWhy has NBN speeds been so slow. I’m paying for 500 mbs but getting 3-400!!! #VodafoneAU
-
Snowhite62 (@Snowhite621) reported@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. 🇦🇺
-
Warwick Brown / CEO of HTMX (same thing) (@WarkickBrown) reported@hisaflog100 The original sin was Rudd and Conroy decreeing that NBN access charges must be flat across the whole network.
-
Kit (@KitCarnage) reportedA little make up stream before the planned NBN outage? What could go wrong?
-
reasonable_ginger (@reasonable63682) reported@HonTonyAbbott are you still around? I'm still dealing with your crap NBN you left us with.. No credibility on my end
-
SamZawsum (@SamZawsum) reported@SchadenfreudeA3 When the nbn trench crew were here, I offered them cuppas and took down a big jug of iced water and cups
-
Ky Broome (@KyBroome35) reportedNow almost 5 hours into NBN being out for an unknown reason... Pretty pathetic tbh As such videos of Trade Targets and Team Reveals might be slow and late getting out
-
Brettme (@Brettski_aus) reported@mark16pg If it was up to Turnbull, we would have had a working NBN. Lucky we listened to the other ********* and ended up with the **** show we have now.
-
Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@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.
-
𝚁 𝚊 𝚐 𝚒 𝚗 𝚐 (@lRagingI1) reported@MalFPS_ Australian internet isn’t bad anymore. Your probs still on fibre to the node. Gotta search your address on the nbn site and get that free fttp update
-
There’s Only One Jezza (@StandMeOver) reported@herecomessuper And don’t forget the useless **** is the one who gave us NBN. That basically created another government run Telstra. For a technology that was never required.
-
Whimsical🇦🇺 (@whimsical523456) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@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.
