Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@Batman2242 @JMarshall63666 That's just a stupid old lie. The concept was determined by an independent cost benefit analysis which determined upgrading to fibre provided the best benefit for the cost based on existing and concept tech. Libs destroyed the plan and the economics of the #nbn

fuzzylicious007 🇦🇺🩷🦄🦩🌸⭐️ (@fuzzylicious007) reported@senatorbabet Especially because most of it is wasted on unbelievably stupid **** like fraud, foreign aid, renewables crap, not to mention the billions wasted on the NBN & the submarines🤬. As much as I hate John Howard buying votes with **** like the baby bonus, at least we had a surplus then
-
panopticon (@harrypanopticon) reported@SandyXiaotong For the fact that she had such a bloody big mouth on NBN and towards Malcolm Turnbull, she got awful quiet on NBN.
-
Max Revelation (@MaximilPlan3t) reported@GregNordo @AllBiteNoBark88 I just had another go with Optus. Literally no internet during peak hrs. Their NBN is unbelievably bad, even my business plan was dropping out 20 times a day. Aldi it is.....
-
jaded ( ジェイドフィッシュア ) (@jadedfissure) reported@realRick_AUS Out in rural NSW, the max I could get was 50Mbps. And it took 3 months and a really good tech - (who got silenced) to tell me that they had a broken cable on my run and they needed to rerun the cables for about 50 feet. 7 visits I think I have 3 months with nothing before that! And every time it rained, I lost connection for hours I was the middle of the work day. Aussie Broadband were the only ones who kept me sane - NBN itself was (and is) rubbish, but Aussie was amazing.

iamfee (@fairies4one) reported@Batman2242 Our nbn network is a joke!
-
Aussie Shazza (@shazzadut) reported@VoteLewko @2GB873 I have Boost on my phone. Goes thru the Telstra Network. It was out. My NBN however sailed through no problems with TPG.
-
Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@FannyFitch Maybe they need to go back to the fail-safe future, using Labors' Full Fibre NBN, that Vested Interests installed the LNP Crime Org Puppet Junta to nobble with stone age Copper. It operated well, for over 65 years, even on iron age Copper, before being sent into the cloud.
-
Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported@Poolwithaswan @viii_nix Labor has been terrible with digital freedom. There was Stephen Conroy and the great Australian firewall during the Rudd-Gillard-Rudd. We were looking at getting a great fibre to the home NBN, that would've been utterly crippled by the government mandated filtering.
-
Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@Juzira You really should get Full fibre NBN History does not support that view, except in Hansons micro fringe cult & within Murdochs LNP Crime Org.
-
TomOyn 🚉🏗️ (@AussieWirraway) reportedOrdered a new fibre connection on Sunday, a tech came and installed FTTP on Wednesday, and it cost $0. NBN gets a lot of flack but it's very hard to complain about this level of service!
-
Ferdie Khnopff (@FKhnopff) reported@Democracy_Duck @ABCmediawatch Are you suggesting giving the network back to public ownership? To an organisation like NBN where rejects from Telstra & Optus go to work? (Including Telstra's so-called risk management 'experts' BTW) With ACMA keeping an eye on things?
-
Shane (@bigRD73) reported@blowingtom2 @SenSHenderson It would be as bad as NBN co if they didn't.
-
Sharpe (@Sharpe75299870) reported@GreenTyler27 I cant remember even 1 gov project being completed on time and on budget. Completely the opposite, snowy 2 ..... How much has the NBN cost us! Jacinta spending spree! The list of failures never ends in Australia
-
VersionNaught (@nathan_knows) reported@strangerous10 A lot of people forget the NBN was in part to shift the fixed broadband service monopoly from Telstra.
-
Mezmarr (@Mezmarr) reported@NBN_Australia @NBN_Australia still no internet. Guess I'll just tell my work that you guys will cover the losses incurred by being down.
-
@JPVanga (@jpvenga20579) reported@jera_nichols @jackieaus @Starlink I'm Northern Beaches Sydney. The slightest change in the weather or HAARP signals - Chem Trails, all affect the signal which drops out as a result. It also drops out at 6.15pm EST most evenings. I run another NBN service in tandem as I run an internet based business from home.
-
LambDownUnder (@LambDownUnder) reported@TheLucidyn @Batman2242 Kind of proving the point. Gov can't perceive anything. Making large Capex decisions that are supposed to be generational. It was anti competitive from the outset. Private companies (TPG notable) were prohibited from building out their own network. Regardless, I can have starlink internet now for about the same monthly price as the NBN except i didn't have to front the Capex (and debt) for it. NBN very likely has a negative ROI. I wish we judged policies by outcomes not intentions.

WhatYouThinkIThink 🇦🇺♥️🇺🇦 🔴🟡⚫️ 🇮🇱🇵🇸 (@WhatYouThinkIT1) reported@ArtistAffame If you don't have a wifi router then you will. The 5G is the mobile network, you connect to the internet via that or via NBN. Usually then it connects to a wifi router.
-
Jack Koval (@jackkovaltrades) reported@CrashiusClay69 Damn dude, let's ****** ball.. I wish I could share my clip with you but I don't wanna doxx myself NBA. National TV. Sold Out Crowd. Swoosh. NBN TNT 🏀💣
-
Matte Black (@MattSul96194350) reported@realRick_AUS I've just been fishing 50km down the vic river in the NT. Starlink had better uninterrupted reception than my NBN at home in the middle of Darwin. The NBN was yet another Labor scam on the taxpayer.
-
DerKrampus (@gaymilkisgay) reported@ianclarkeAU NBN is not a cellular network - I think your statement is illogical.
-
Haalyle (@Haalyle) reportedNo wifi today, we've had some electrical problems, mainly to do with the washing machine. That just means a relaxing Sunday of playing them games (now that the electricity is on). (NBN always takes a long time to recover.)
-
Richard (@R4dicalCentrist) reportedTrue. NBN Co is the picture of efficiency and never suffers outages or coverage issues.
-
Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@ajamesbragg If you get the spider out of your pocket, you could hook up Fibre NBN & save sprouting stupid ****. Labor banned CFMEU & instigated an enquiry into corrupt (LNP like activity).
-
Nicole Lazarou🇦🇺🇮🇱✡️ (@nicole_lazarou) reported@QuentinDempster NBN sucks. Australia has third world internet. Starlink rocks. Loser.
-
Flick XX (@FlickFlaneuse) reported@Pine_Ghosts @GreensAU2 "with no mains electricity, gas, water, sewage, NBN, garbage, or medical facilities". You're talking rubbish. No one in need of alleged NDIS anything is living under those conditions. No one.

Wobb & Ro-Ro 🔞 are currently Quack-tastic!! (@WobbandRoRo) reportedYeah idk wtf is goin on dude. The NBN and/or Vodafone have been having the hugest ****** issues lately.
-
Wobb & Ro-Ro 🔞 are currently Quack-tastic!! (@WobbandRoRo) reportedMAYBE WHEN WE WAKE UP, WHATEVER ******** IS WRONG WITH VODAFONE AUSTRALIA AND THE NBN WILL STOP SCREWING WITH OUR NET, BECAUSE I SURE AM COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS TO THE BILL PEOPLE AND DEMANDING A DISCOUNT BRO!!!!
-
The Opinionated Veteran (@the_vocal_one) reported@CovfefeDnUnder @ianclarkeAU All network types have limits on the bandwidth (speed available to users), even wired ones... It's just that for fixed networks like the NBN, those limits are much, MUCH higher.
