    @NBN_Australia Sounds like the Public service - form a committee to form a committee to form a committee to write a report to refer to a committee... ad nauseum. Let's not forget OH&S too - oops...five drops of rain...down tools boys - see you all at the pub!

  • maungle Martin Aungle AZ 1.0 (@maungle) reported

    Sudden internet outage ... walked outside, saw an @NBN_Australia safety barrier up the road, asked the techo if he was going to be long. No, he said, walked back, connection restored. What was he doing? Who knows.

  • scatblingbling Scatblingbling (@scatblingbling) reported

    @JonathanBuckley @MikeyInvestz @KumaInuOfficial Treach from NBN said it best in “ghetto bastard” don’t gamble in a game you cant play … that’s straight facts🕺🕺🕺🧀🧀🧀💵💵💵this too damn easy

    @Bowenchris NBN 51+ Billion, 🐀 Morrison commits 2B.. wtf

  • TRAVLIC Tom Ravlic FIPA FFA (@TRAVLIC) reported

    @sofa_stream @Telstra @NBN_Australia The outage down here was real and the guys told me to restart my modems. That appears to have fixed things for the time being!

  • txsako Blocker (@txsako) reported

    @catherine___c Don't mention the whole watered down nbn debacle.

  • ASX_Punter Camping_Guy (@ASX_Punter) reported

    @marquelawyers Interesting number 38b. The NBN original estimated to cost 43b by Rudd when announcing it. NBNco later revised that down to 37.4b and the LNP called it a colossal waste of public funds for years. That's right the LNP just wasted a whole NBN for the lack of fine print in jobkeeper

  • Stoodtoshi Have Fud Stacking Poor (@Stoodtoshi) reported

    @_k3tan mate after your appearances on Citadel & Stephans podcasts thought I better jump into gear. At a new place & dont have internet yet. Is there much difference between 5G/4G v NBN with all the stuff you were discussing? Leaning towards 5G unless privacy/security sucks.

  • MikeAinOz Mike Allen (@MikeAinOz) reported

    @KratosBi They all share the same connection, so I went from the iiNet to Telstra, the parent service provider, to fix the phone. Then I had an NBN issue and COVID came along and Telstra literally couldn't answer the phone, so I switched to Aussie Broadband NBN. Modern life 😎👍

  • PaddyR19 Pat Ryan (@PaddyR19) reported

    @TRAVLIC @Telstra @NBN_Australia Rotting copper telegraph wires in water filled junction pits … never designed to support broadband. Thanks Malcolm!

  • GregWil82228158 Greg Wilson (@GregWil82228158) reported

    Geeze I'm sick of my NBN . Best speed I can get is 6mbps. Drops out 20 times a day. Contact @TPG_Telecom , next day say it's fixed. Still same problem @NBN_Australia send a tech out , after an hour say it's fixed. Still dropping out 20 times a day. Ugggh bloody #fraudband

  • LennaLeprena Lenna Leprena 🎸🎼🎺🎷🎹 (@LennaLeprena) reported

    @HMac500 @TammyWolffs You're welcome..beware of using your data up tho..if you've got a pretty big data plan you should be right...a modem with wifi from the NBN service is the cheapest way to go..I run everything off mine..iPhone, lappy, PC and iPad...

  • JOK07867967 Johno (@JOK07867967) reported

    @NBN_Australia its costs us about $3k to upgrade to optical line on a network we have paid too much tax for in the first place.

  • Oli_Adams9 Oli Adams (@Oli_Adams9) reported

    Hi @NBN_Australia , the website has said that my service has been resolved but it hasn't. Are you able to confirm this is the case or do I need to follow it up with the provider. Seems weird that a NBN fault would cause the other connection to die too.

  • gotroppo69 TroppoInNQ (@gotroppo69) reported

    @MoarToast He lacks the weight of his convictions - he too often talks the talk, but when the rubber hits the road, he runs the opposite direction. I've never understood that. His NBN was a disaster - why is that so hard to admit? We know why - the party wouldn't allow it. Just say it.

    Damn so that $38B in wasted #JobKeeper could've bought two-thirds of an NBN or almost half the french submarines we ordered. #MakesYouThink #GoodEconomicManagers

  • GrumpyO63023096 Grumpy Old Man (@GrumpyO63023096) reported

    @GarrickGostelow @MrKRudd The Sub deal with the French was a bad deal from the start. Turnbull cant be trusted to do such deals. Look at the NBN do you really think it was a good deal. SCOTT is cleaning up Turnbulls mess again

  • Bundynelle Janelle Ross (@Bundynelle) reported

    Seriously you NBN Scammers, you are desperate. Calling someone in Australia on Melbourne Cup Day. This time yesterday it was Frank and told me he'd '*******'. I told this one "Are you Frank from NBN?!" beep beep beep beep beep

  • zoomosis ozzmosis (@zoomosis) reported

    I was really expecting the NBN here to still be down after power was restored due to broken wiring since the fibre optic cable is aerial in my street. Evidently nothing broke though. Amazing.

  • Stoodtoshi Have Fud Stacking Poor (@Stoodtoshi) reported

    @_k3tan Thanks @_k3tan! Im a complete noob sorry for the stupid Qs. Just how important is ping when running own server, full node & storage etc? Trying to achieve all of that as a minimum so if it's shockingly bad to have high ping I may hav to fork out for the $600 NBN connection :(

  • natashamitchell Natasha Mitchell 💉💉 (@natashamitchell) reported

    SERIOUSLY. #NBN down 4 hours ago ISPs of households along my street can't say when it will be up. Mine says NBN says usually 2-24hrs (??) Parents with Year 12 students studying for exams. Here I'm trying to sort a national radio show on #COP26 with a colleague. No dramas #NBNCo.

  • greghod56667063 greg hodge (@greghod56667063) reported

    @abcmelbourne BBJ in Cranbourne west has been out since Friday. Our businesses rely on the NBN but Telstra don’t want to help. Lots of promises from INDIA to “fix by 6pm tonight” but that passes with no result

  • hillmanimp864 Hillman Imp chaser (@hillmanimp864) reported

    @natashamitchell @NBN_Australia Working for them was pretty bad too Natasha, I did around 6 years as a field fibre optic tech, crap pay at $25ph, comms with them terrible at best, I'm still in recovery a year later, just mow lawns now(when I can), & all the bosses get 6fig bonuses, go figure eh

  • Bertie1Uncle UncleBertie1 (@Bertie1Uncle) reported

    @kels_316 I keep getting the NBN (scammers) calling to tell me my NBN isn’t working. I tell them “no **** Sherlock “ there’s no NBN here in the bush! Nearest is 20km away so I doubt it will get to the village any time soon.

  • JoniMeenagh Dr Joni Monsta 🧛🏻‍♀️🧟‍♀️😼 (@JoniMeenagh) reported

    Internet is back! Been down since Thursday’s storm. NBN tech said he had 16 jobs in my area today replacing boxes that got fried. They’ve been replacing boxes since at least Sunday.

  • sofa_stream Sofa Stream (@sofa_stream) reported

    @TRAVLIC @Telstra @NBN_Australia I have had issues recently and spent hours on the phone to Telstra trying to resolve. Now they are blame shifting suggesting I get my laptop checked out, which I will. But it is all so annoying and time-wasting.

  • ThinkingFaceEmo Thinking Face Emoji (@ThinkingFaceEmo) reported

    @NBN_Australia I haven't had NBN for 5 days, and my ISP can't even give me an update on recovery. I'm in inner Melbourne. NBN SUCKS! I'm going 5G asap.

  • DUBtm_ DUB™ (@DUBtm_) reported

    @NBN_Australia Support regional Australia by allowing more than one fixed wireless speed. Otherwise come out and install some wires in front of my house.
