    Ugh tech issues, this goddamn nbn

  • bwrigley BDubAus (@bwrigley) reported

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia our internet connections are all still down in the inner west of #Sydney, and have been for over 24 hours! Just 5kms from the CBD! What is going on? We’re paying for internet and not getting it. #ACCC

  • bprimetimel Bryan Lee (@bprimetimel) reported

    @AGLEnergy Why is your nbn service experiencing outage so often

  • OtakuBear6 Otaku_Bear (@OtakuBear6) reported

    @NBN_Australia I love how they try to defend the NBN. It's crap, the rollout was crap, the copper wire is crap and the help they offer is steaming crap. I'd go back to broadband if I could but NBN is basically compulsory. But please offer me advice.

  • ElbK19 BethinCanberra (@ElbK19) reported

    @janine_hendry Optus 💯does not care. All bills and reminders are on time. That is all Optus cares about. NBN goes down - they try to distract you with irrelevant modem checks - just admit you don’t offer 24/7 coverage.

  • Irqqs Irqqs (@Irqqs) reported

    Honestly can @Optus / @NBN_Australia get their **** together so the internet doesn't drop out every couple minutes the second it rains

  • marleysmate Marley's Mate Skye 🇦🇺💫 (@marleysmate) reported

    @Telstra Home phone is NBN and one mobile connects internet via NBN. 3G only on both mobile phones and mobile wifi device up & down, mostly down.

  • valeriekhoo valeriekhoo (@valeriekhoo) reported

    @NBN_Australia The NBN technician has been and gone and confirmed it's an NBN network issue. Please advise when it will be fixed?

  • greenoz123 Jan 🇳🇿🇬🇧🇺🇸💥🇺🇦 (@greenoz123) reported

    What is going on with Vodafone today in Perth? No NBN/Vodafone coverage and even 4G is terrible. So computer, phone and iPad all reset but not working and Vodafone modem NBN all showing green after resetting twice. Can't get through to Vodafone - help!

  • marleysmate Marley's Mate Skye 🇦🇺💫 (@marleysmate) reported

    @Telstra Mobiles appear to be now back to 4G and mobile Wifi ok. No connection to internet via NBN service or home phone.

  • TheHonMacca Matt McKay (@TheHonMacca) reported

    @AGLEnergy nbn outage again in Sunbury VIC. I've had several since joining you, none with Telstra in the 3years before that. If you're going to sell the product- get it right. 30min on hold to tech support, got hung up on. Still not working!!!!

  • JustinM79380965 J C M (@JustinM79380965) reported

    @ROOKIETRADERA @fulovitboss Try getting the s7bstations each Tesla fast charger, requires 700amps for 1hr charge. The power network upgrade, will take decades. How long did the NBN take? This is more complex and requires far bigger infrastructure.

  • SueHunt58433205 Sue Hunt (@SueHunt58433205) reported

    @downdetectorau Nbn still down

  • lisamt75 Lisa Thompson (@lisamt75) reported

    @Telstra No. I’ve had issues with connection since relocating in December. Apparently have an nbn technician coming tomorrow but that doesn’t mean it will be resolved. I need some sort of internet meantime that works. I’ve contact Telstra multiple times just to get to this point.

  • madmaxi1104 Stephen Maxwell 💉💉 (@madmaxi1104) reported

    @NBN_Australia Can’t cause since moving the service has been incredibly inconsistent with more downtime in one month than that of 2022. No matter what Aussie broadband try, you keep letting them down.

  • 1hisaflog 🤩 (@1hisaflog) reported

    ******* NBN outage

  • Skyelark0 Skye High 🌻 (@Skyelark0) reported

    @thomsonwithap98 Does it support NBN roll-out at newly registered properties being the full responsibility of the lanlord

  • RubyNekoChanTTV RubyNekoChan (@RubyNekoChanTTV) reported

    @NBN_Australia I'm on VDSL 2+ and I get 110mbps down and 50 Mbps up. For the same price as an NBN 50mbps plan.

  • valeriekhoo valeriekhoo (@valeriekhoo) reported

    Even more people now in Mona Vale, Bayview, Warriewood, Narrabeen with major @NBN_Australia issues and outages. What is going on and when will this be fixed?

  • maz_net_au Maz (@maz_net_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia How much power are you wasting on keeping old copper phone lines energised? If you built a fibre network instead of a solar farm you'd be better off.

  • keithdavey66 KK49 (@keithdavey66) reported

    @NBN_Australia Rap service

  • valeriekhoo valeriekhoo (@valeriekhoo) reported

    How embarrassing for @NBN_Australia and CEO Stephen Rue that they admit to 2.5 days of a outage and no one can explain why. In the middle of Sydney. cc @FinancialReview

  • dan_mcmahon Dan (@dan_mcmahon) reported

    Afternoon @NBN_Australia – Can you please start working on a voicemail service which listens to the start of any call and if they say "Hi this is Robert from NBN and I'm calling you about your internet security"... and it just blocks the caller for me :)

  • btckr Barry Tucker V (@btckr) reported

    @72Hallam Sorry if my solution sounds like the LNP's solution to poor NBN service: "Sell up & move to a place where the reception is better."

  • madmaxi1104 Stephen Maxwell 💉💉 (@madmaxi1104) reported

    @NBN_Australia Oh they kept me updated. Your updates were the poor ones. Outage notification at 3:20pm and “we are working on it” then nothing till it magically started working at 8:30pm. No communication is poor in a technical era

  • NetrunnerGen Netrunner Card Generator (@NetrunnerGen) reported

    Dystrophaeus NBN • 2 credits Ice: Sentry - Tracer Strength 1 ↳ Trace 2: deal 1 brain damage ↳ Trace 3: trash 1 program

  • dan_mcmahon Dan (@dan_mcmahon) reported

    @NBN_Australia Love your work. Respectfully, I'd love to spend *less* time dropping out of meetings to answer crank phone calls, let alone spending less time filling out forms with poor usability on Scamwatch. If anyone legitimately tries to contact me from NBN. I apologise in advance to them.

  • modredcastleton Mords ⚙️ (@modredcastleton) reported

    @OriginBroadband It's nice of you to provide an alternative for when the extremely shoddy work your techs do on your behalf with our NBN box leaves our internet down for weeks on end :D

  • djackmanson David Jinglebells (@djackmanson) reported

    "NBN" wouldn't be calling me using a boiler-room outbound call distributor to tell me they're upgrading my connection to fibre-optic because it's "been slow", would they? (Hung up as I smell a scam)
