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

Fix the planet: be progressive - 🇵🇸 (@Boom_ThatHurt) reported@boganintel @AlboMP It's infuriating the situation this govt has got us into by not having any backbone WSE There has been no nation building since the NBN and Abbott wrecked that So many plans that could be implemented but nothing except a moronic sub deal that sucks $B out of the economy for what?
-
Max Rockatansky (@MaxRock222) reported@AvidCommentator Just like the nbn It never made sense But for their other reasons they went ahead with the rort
-
Michelle Burrows (@ChelleAB) reportedI’ll second this. I note Albanese has no issue shackling the ALP’s NBN around our necks despite Telstra either.
-
Ryan Emery (@ryanremery) reported@VodafoneAU And, of course, @VodafoneAU is claiming they have to wait 24hrs for my "service number" to change before I can get the FTTP I requested 2 weeks ago. @NBN_Australia says it hasn't received a modification request. Today or 2 weeks ago. Time for the ombudsman.
-
bob (@BrettS69) reported@EnergyWrapAU @BhagsNStonks The NBN lacked a clear business case, and tried to deliver a Singapore solution to a geographically different Australia. The future was wireless.
-
Candace Tomlinson (@aukuschampion) reported@EnergyWrapAU That’s okay, the NBN is the most expensive internet on the planet. The NDIS is the most expensive support scheme for disabled people on the planet. But Australians can afford it! Can’t you? Journalists surely can, why else wouldn’t they complain?

Ezzeddine | عزالدين (@ezzh_) reported@m1nhaxo That’s garbage in a family household lol nbn is so terrible
-
gordon malcolmson /malky🍀🇮🇪🏴🇵🇸💚 (@gordonmalcolms3) reported@racingblogger Terrible ride by NBN😒🐎🍀🇮🇪
-
mastodon.au/@macropin (@macropin) reported@eevblog NBN don't have the equipment necessary to maintain their own network. More consultants will fix the problem.
-
/. Gwynne (@gwynne007) reported@analyticflying Meh, this time next year! I had a **** fight with them 6 months ago taking 2 months to upgrade the NBN from 50 to 500 (change of billing systems)
-
Ezzeddine | عزالدين (@ezzh_) reported@m1nhaxo Paying $120 a month for 750 mbps but we’ve been only getting 150-300 on a good day because of this garbage nbn And they won’t send us a new modem we’ve had this one for 10 years now through 5 different houses
-
loksta!🗣 ❤️. . (@locky82903378) reported@ScreamyB0I @TheIshikawaRin Totally ridiculous to think they all be taking phones that don’t work no signal cell towers in space , no nbn internet cable for a router to plug into , no wi fi on board , the weight of the phones chargers cables etc x 4 is stoopid when every gram counts . Total sci fi nonsense
-
Some Bloke in Oz (@Someozbloke) reported@alreadyfurious @deniseshrivell Ive never had an issue with Starlink and weather...yes latency slowness...i also have had more outages with NBN than starlink.
-
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?
-
🦺 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
-
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.
-
The Cradle (@TheCradleMedia) reportedVIDEO | Just one minute before the ceasefire came into effect at midnight, Israel carried out an airstrike on a residential complex in the southern Lebanese city of Tyre, resulting in a massacre, according to NBN reporter @hasanfakih24, who was at the scene. This morning, emergency teams recovered the bodies of 11 victims from beneath the rubble of a residential complex in Tyre, while 35 others were reported injured. Civil defense crews are continuing their search for those still missing under the debris.

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

Dave Jones (@eevblog) reportedNBN Update: "Cable works are progressing. The fibre cable was installed between the two manholes early this morning and the site has been made safe. Due to traffic control requirements, work has temporarily paused and will recommence under day Road Occupancy Licences between 10:00am and 2:00pm. Cable preparation works began earlier at 3:30am, with splicing scheduled to commence this afternoon. Customer restoration is expected to be completed later today. NBN will continue to monitor progress and provide further updates as they become available."

Munted (@use_insert) reported@NBN_Australia Can you pull your finger out and at the BARE MINIMUM, updated your website with outages. Yorke Peninsula SA Over an hour offline and your 💩 website says “No Outages” ISP confirms that you are the problem 🙄

Lucas | 🇦🇺 (@TheBlackWallaby) reported@australian Even Tesla is made in China, so what is the actual issue here? This was sent from my Mac Mini, made in China, sitting on a desk made in China, connected to the NBN through a Wi-Fi gateway made in China, typed from my Logitech keyboard, made in China, while I sit in an office chair made in China, looking at a Samsung monitor made in, checks notes, Vietnam. At some point the argument has to get more precise than “China bad.” If the concern is connected vehicles, telemetry, firmware access, data storage, or fleet security for MPs, then make that argument properly and apply it consistently across all networked devices. But pretending Chinese EVs are uniquely suspicious while half the modern office supply chain is already Chinese-made is not analysis. My iPhone (made in China) is connected to my Apple Auto - driving me around tracking me on a GPS map, with a microphone that works, and the Head Unit (made in China) Where does it end?

****** (@Yarrahbunjyil) reported@AlboMP And if Telstra were repairing lines in the bush instead of letting them rot while they "roll-out the NBN", I might even take advantage of it. But they're not, so the Service Agreement isn't being honoured, the TIO won't do anything, & no one gives a damn. So thanks for nothing!
-
James the 2nd (@JamesII4824) reported@disco___cat @jason_king72 GST is fine ( Keating wanted it at first ). I didn't even mention the damage he did to the housing market with his CGT discount. No government sold out future generations to the Boomers like Howard's. And Abbott sucked - NBN vandal and climate vandal.

Caron Derbe (@DerbeCaron54429) reported@NBN_Australia How much longer for this outage to be fixed i live in postcode are 2153

✨ Immo ✨ 🫧🌠 (@Immo____) reported@Zadow_ @YaseiDoubutsu I could never handle wireless that stuff drives me crazy but YES this is exactly it haha I just got it from JB while on an Ethernet cable run to hopefully solve an NBN dropping out issue
-
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.
-
Ruchir Patel (@Iruchirpatel) reportedCan’t wait to get my @Starlink finally time to **** off my NBN.
-
ronnymouse (@ronnymouse7) reported@eevblog this is why we have a fixed wireless connection as a backup, the NBN backbones they're connected to rarely go down
-
Craig Gardiner (@cwgardiner) reported@telstra reception in Vermont South (near Sewart close) is crap. I logged a call (INC 40508228) as a @Telstra Gold member 6 months ago, today they told me it was fixed. It ain’t fixed. Still no 4G/5G and I’m paying for 4G backup on my NBN modem. This is beyond a joke.
