Grinds My Gears (@alreadyfurious) reported@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.

Therealstevethebeast150 (@Therealsteveth1) reported@7NewsSydney Well, it would help if builders didn’t put the NBN box in the ******* cupboard,

WTF-UCantBSerious (@Whoyacallin) reported@SkyNewsAust Can someone in your office ask Bolt to stop being soooooooooooo GLIB when he has a guest or is questioning and if he could piss that imbecile Steven Conroy He's a failed Minister with the NBN if I remember and is still an idiot!
-
Marg N - AU (@Daisy1158) reported.@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!

BluntHonesty 🇦🇺🤝🇮🇱 (@BluntHonesty4) reported@trsrpc Because the NBN rollout is a god damn joke and embaressment to the country.

Tony D (@tonydpoison) reported@Slackonbothsydz NBN. Treach was a problem.
-
Tony Hughes (@ArealHughes) reported@AlanBixter Our communications infrastructure system is not good enough. After the Turnbull NBN debacle and massive cost blowouts we still have inferior IT infrastructure. My internet is slow but works OK, however ph reception is woeful and I'm 40'ks from the coast of seventh largest city.
-
DerKrampus (@gaymilkisgay) reported@MurrayWatt This is NBN Mk2 - scrap a system that will work in the long term for an overpriced short term solution.

nbn® Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported@Peter_Strachan 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 service provider know. 1/2

My Brother in Antichrist (@0delay1) reported@CazAusie @TimjboAU Medicare. Superannuation. HECS. NBN. Gun reform. Fair Work. Disability support. Paid parental leave. Minimum wage increases. Universal healthcare & education funding. ‘I can’t recall’ just means you didn’t look.

Kang Li (@aphacia) reported@NBN_Australia no NBN service in Cherrybrook 2126 from this morning there has been HFC replacement recently nearby was it because the project missed cutting the HFC cable for internet then caused the unplanned outage and when it is back?
-
Joey (@joeyonmac) reported@Krow23_ @NBN_Australia why the code is not working
-
Orstraya (@orstraya) reported@eevblog How can an organisation like NBN not have its own HDD crews or a contractor on standby? Why does it need council permits to carry out emergency works when federal law lets telcos basically do what they want?
-
Raymond McKeown (@RaymondKeown3) reported@Kate3015 @Mark_Butler_MP My thinking is different, I built many $100 mill ++ projects from a concept, there is a simple process that begins from the design, then the costing, then the services, then the providers, then the contact. In some cases, for Govt. I built the first NBN Site at Kiama, Conroy would not listen, Transfield lost $10 million, Conroy would not listen about a Satellite transmission for Central Aust. Fibre cannot travel long distances, Conroy blew $800 million on that alone, his original budget for NBN was $4.78 billion, a joke, & not one of the NBN management had never built a big network, I walked away, and waited, then moved back in.

loksta!🗣 ❤️. . (@locky82903378) reported@kevconrad2 @TexCoolMike Use your brain as if they be taking up iPhones no cell towers In space . No nbn network for wifi routers to plug into. You think they took up charging usb cables etc for phones that don’t work ? All that weight for phones that don’t work when they could have dedicated cameras

Sherwin Pinto (@sherwinpinto) reportedIs anyone else having an outage on their NBN in Rockdale @AGLEnergy

Con! (@c0n_AU) reported@mikejt4 * Sent from your NBN service.

Southwell Certifiers (@TheDeanDK) reported4/ Documentation gaps. Missing clearances from Sydney Water, Ausgrid, or NBN. Errors in the Section 88B instrument. A subdivision plan that doesn't meet Registrar General's Guidelines. Each gap adds weeks. A requisitioned plan resets the registration clock entirely.
-
Paolo M (@PaoloMalicse) reported@Optus @optus_help 3rd day no NBN internet, so why do I pay $100 a month for no service? Superloop and Starlink looking very appealing right now. Maybe time for me to switch?
-
CryptoVegeta 🟠 NFTARMY (@opieaccount4) reported@TMFScottP I was a gamer and hated ADSL living outside of a state capital it was ****. NBN to me personally would have been great, but blowing that money that money on shortsighted populism didnt sit well with me. Seemed shortsighted.
-
TK (@tk_bulba) reportedAfter numerous issues with @Telstra NBN were decided to give @Aussie_BB a try. Never again. For a company that prides itself on customer support this is the worst connection experience I’ve encountered. Allegedly now an NBN wide issue is preventing new connections.

Ross (@Ross98329500) reported@motorcymick everything this guy touched, still trying to fix the NBN, false prophet

Michael Brennan (@Michael44814776) reportedNo, nbn has cost far more due to LNP. LNP original costing: Promised $29.5B (2013 election); revised to $41B in Strategic Review. The evidence is that in the caucus , as detailed in Turnbull’s book, Abbott simply wanted LNP to be contrarian about nbn. They stopped the fibre rollout and replaced it with copper. At the time, LNPs message that nbn would go over budget was favoured due to a complicit media. For instance, when the ABC science editor did a comprehensive comparison between labour’s FTTP and LNP copper, the report was spiked until after the election, due to ABC management wanting to appease LNP. Then, under LNP, ABC did not have a science editor. Consider the subsequent dearth of reporting by ABC in following years about the biggest infrastructure project ever. Consider that Turnbull appointed a former business associate to be chair of ABC whilst a Director of NBN snd whilst a ceo of a supplier to NBN with a $100m contract for design and fabrication of copper based distribution boxes, which have subsequently been removed. So there is no surprise that the public were force fed the line that all that glitters is copper. The reality set in when the deterioration of the copper network became apparent to punters. The cost of NBN is now at approx $50B with $54B to 2030 to due to the replacement costs of LNPs copper systems with fibre. So Abbott and Turnbull cost the country many billions not to mention the years of misery and lost productivity by prolonging the copper network.

Wyatt O'Shea (@Wyatt1I7) reported@villaminium @JordanRey98 @whooithVT I've already got multiple good routers so I don't need the eero but it's cool that it's a free addon. Idk about peak speed being any different as I've never not gotten max speed out of my fiber nbn connections (minus overheads) so about 950mbps+ at all hours of the day or night.

BamBam 🇦🇺 🐕 (@BamBam0667) reported@EnergyWrapAU As much as I dislike Turdbull, you'd have to give him small credit for curtailing the NBN blowout that would have been. ALL 3 of these had the exact same problem. Contractors, with little Govt oversight, rorting the system for their own gain. Public servants writing 💩 contracts

Toe-knee (@yourmama717) reported@NBN_Australia That’s understandable however there were basically no updates from nbn over long periods (12+ hours) throughout the outage. What the hell are nbn doing? How is the network so poorly designed that an outage for an entire suburb lasts 26 hours???!!???!

King Neptune73 (@bartoni73) reported@Telstra @NBN_Australia when is my internet going to be fixed? I have been awaiting resolution of the issue since March 3, 2026. I have had 6 appointments cancelled because you allege you fixed it remotely! That’s BS!😡😡😡😡
