Pietro (@PietroDarke) reported@centralNRL Agree with the 4K sentiment. Biggest games like Origin & GF not on 4K is poor. Contrary to others my Kayo on 4K is reliable & have not converted to NBN yet.

𝑫𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒆𝒍 𝑺𝒄𝒐𝒕𝒕 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒘𝒔 🇦🇺 (@DanielSMatthews) reported@eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

Harrar Longberry (@HarrarLongberry) reportedNo @NBN_Australia , 1 minute of notice is not a "Planned" 6 hour outage I can only assume you have different SLAs if you call it planned. #NBN #NoBroadbandNetwork

James Boman ⩟ (@JBoman32768) reported@techAU @BassonBrain @Starlink Its a real testament to how slow and overpriced limited in availability the NBN is.

Patrick Houston (@PetrucHouston) reported@news_australian No losers, we want Pauline. Stop trying to pave the way for the election fraud that controls this shitshow. Over 100%? Wtf does that even mean? Perfect NBN? Are you fkn serious? He’s a WEF globalist shill.

Finder (@findercomau) reportedThe NBN is phasing out older copper connections starting July next year, and if you don’t switch to full fiber within six months of being notified, your internet will be suspended! 🌐🔌 Check your address eligibility now to ensure you stay connected with faster, more reliable service 🚀 #NBN #internetupgrade #aussietech

Duchess of Exeter 🌏 (@WhosFibbing) reportedThe three telcos and government-owned NBN Co were left reeling when the regulator rang to notify them of its final pricing decision – a token $20m reduction to renew spectrum licences essential for carrying mobile signals. ACMA’s decision will result in the sector collectively paying peak market rates of $7.32bn to roll over their existing spectrum holdings as licences begin expiring from 2028. Much of that cost will find its way on to customer bills. More inflation incoming!

Glen (@Petty_Ruxspin) reported@TRILLBlackLos @Cheamane @elroy__preston Didn’t NBN run down on them on stage at some point. Like these happy rappers were still street nyggas at the end of the day.

The Solitary Reaper @YonSolitary is my old account (@ContactVVR) reported@Celicagirl6 @johncurtin @VodafoneAU Thank you 🙏 Hope you also got connectivity back. My nbn was working. I was thinking of cancelling it & sticking with VodaFail coz nbn is too expensive. Thank God i didnt cancel it. I would have been left with no way to even verify if the problem was with my phone or VodaFail

Persian (@BSepsyy) reported@NBN_Australia hey can you fix the internet in Sinnamon Park already…

paullyj57 FMD **** AUST (@paullyj57) reported@australian Err. NBN IS A TAD BIGGER probably 200 billion down the drain. Turnbull and KRudd and government suck
-
John Cas (@moresunshine_1) reported@Sauronlordking If there is one thing I didn't mind from the ALP that would be the NBN in its original form. Then this idiot came around and mutilated it into his own little mixed up mess. That now has to be unraveled at even more expense!!!
-
AussiEx.au (@aussiExau) reported@Kgeeme @MRobertsQLD Totally agree, mate. That Hydro monstrosity and the FTTN NBN were a real waste - billions down the drain and we’re still stuck with rubbish speeds. How’s it been affecting you where you are?
-
Tolly 🇦🇺 (@TolsonKiefer) reported@stevehearne7 @arbsmichael @Marilynrules1 A portion of Telstra was sold for $45b and the rest put into the future fund, totalling $54b+. Telstra is worth $62b right now. This was an excellent deal for Australia. Kevin Rudd introducing the NBN has nothing to do with Howard and Costello and it was also only $11b. Idiot

Reid Fowler thepastoraleye (@Rwmfowler) reported@grok @prx75400417 @Gentleman_Ways Grok may be wrong. The North By Northwest suit was a lighter grey, 3 button, and he never wore a collar pin in NBN.

Michael Ryan (@mickr62) reported@optus_help hi. I have had an issue with your sales chat team putting me on the wrong NBN plan
-
Kojrey (@kojrey_codes) reportedThis is the argument for the #NBN few predicted: 1) Spend lots of money to build a national broadband network. 2) Spend even more money to make it Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) by default. 3) Private competitor pops up and offers comparable service, in more geographies, with zero Australian govt money. ....But where some are now (4a) Private competitor drives out public investment (4b) Private competitor CEO becomes hyper-partisan & divisive AND THEN (4c) They decide to use almost-monopoly power to hold citizens hostage with price increases. Kevin07 may have saved us, even if he didn't know it at the time.

Alan@7th両日 (@BasakaAU) reportedSeems like NBN is back up after it went down yesterday morning, phew

Quo Warranto (@warranto_q92963) reportedGetting there. First time EVER since the NBN was put in by Raj and his mate...i now have a green transfer light as opposed to orange. Of course no one gave a **** there was a problem on the day. I do have some patch cables without a cat rating, so there is that. Baby steps.
-
Steve Woosnam (@SteveWoosnam) reported@ichimikichiki @Lisa9Sophia The NBN is still one of the biggest waste of money in Australia's history. The government never had any business sticking its nose in.

Erick (@Erick0341) reported@KathleenWinche3 NBN, **** happens when you’re stupid.
-
nigel (@nigel15026948) reported@news_australian None stuffed NBN. Many farmers still have very little service, look at how much snowy 2 has and is continuing to cost.
-
Heilagt 🇦🇺 (@scrdeclxpse) reported@ruicharadrius Getting my NBN done and paying $99 a month for 62mb internet, just to have one of my overseas mates talk about his internet of 150mb being slow so he switched to gigabit. Absolute ****** travesty, shameful is what it is.

💜𝕏 CharmsVic 𝕏 💜 (@CharmsYahoo) reported@scottjla @johannesmkx Uk hasn’t got as many isolated farms etc as Australia or US but I understand from friends there is similar higher speed internet access as Australia suffered with slow install of NBN and minimal systems Back in 2021/2 when Starlink was not providing many services in UK - govt removing authorisation would not have caused major outcry but the number of services today would cause huge outcry if authorisation were removed. Also mobile Starlink is very common now. The acceptance of authorisation is part of SPCX now and impact investors - technically I suspect uk govt can’t do anything other than order removal and whether the company has offices in uk will be relevant to service provision and funding for infringements Elon is VERY protective of children’s rights so expect him to express views on how this needs implementing. His stance against Starmer goes back to when he ed public prosecutor and didn’t protect children and girls against gangs.

The Policy Guy (@negativevortex_) reported@PaulineHansonOz Morning Pauline. The 'du jour' attack on One Nation presently focusses on whether your policies are costed. As you know, this will become a regular feature of all uniparty (LNP will offer this sledge too) media / comms over the next 24 months. It shows the panic levels have escalated. I believe this is your best tactical response (below). 1. Be prepared to openly sully the reputation of the PBO The fact is that this department has costed the NBN, the NDIS and (to a lesser extent) Snowy Hydro. They are continuously wrong, because they are not highly skilled operators in private industry, they're public servants running to Standard Operating Procedure. Let Australians know the PBO is wildly off the mark with most of their projections. So why should One Nation seek this amateur level of analysis? 2. Move the financial analysis and broader discourse to the public forum. Be open, be transparent. Everything that Albanese is not. Aussies will see this and appreciate sincerity of effort and process. Invite critique from high calibre experts like @Adam_Creighton and @DrCameronMurray. Have the project estimations team at Hancock Energy run a ruler over it - they eat Class 2 estimates in their sleep and they'd crunch this work. 3. Empowering Aussies to think through the conundrum. If One Nation aspires to leaning out the public service, to increase quality and production whilst decreasing cost and regulation - most people realise that the public service are not and will never be 'independent' The PBO likes to remind us they are Parliamentary public servants, as distinct from APS. This is a meaningless distinction - they are inept and part of the loathesome Machinery of Government (MOG) that always seems to place Aussies last.

Ian James Lake (@metalslaw) reported@KillAuDeepState @abcnews @SBSNews Nrth nsw's nbn news had a report on it during 6pm news. Mostly because of the rioting caused by the 'far right' (pissed off locals). Then pointing out that Nigel Farage is bad for noticing the attempted beheading as well... 😒

JFK Whitlam (@JfkWhitlam) reportedThats ok Country Australia doesn't move so fast Nor seem to be in a rush to adopt NBN, Or Starlink... Oh Hang on Smart farming seems to be quite the, In thing Out in the bush Question is Which robotic company will be filling Labor shortages first

Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reportedI woke up to find my Internet is down. I'm typing this via an unusably slow emergency backup mobile access function. I hope my fibre connectivity comes back up soon. The problem is with either my ISP(RSP), or the #NBN, more likely the former.
-
Aldis Ozols 🇦🇺 Official Source (@ozols_aldis) reported@Hector_Herrick @Antiwoke7777 @OMGTheMess We had problems with our fibre-to-the curb NBN. their tech discovered that our old copper line was still connected to the exchange, and that was interfering with the copper line from the fibre to the house. Disconnected the old exchange line, and all was well.

GibberishCapital (@GibberCapital) reported@yinshen86 @Larryjamieson_ Are you ignorant to the concept of crown land? Or the fact that Singapore’s government companies are run exactly like private companies? You think the governments that could **** up NBN and Myki should start running mining companies now?
