  • RobSwampy Swampy Rob (@RobSwampy) reported

    @qikipedia Easier just to put a camera on the moon & route the video feed through Australia's NBN broadband network, that should introduce about a twelve month delay.

  • mezla 💧Matt (@mezla) reported

    I worked for nbn for 2.5yrs as a contractor under CXC. now I have continued at nbn as an employee, for 8mths so far. My long Service Leave balance is that of an 8mth employee. This seems very unfair to me. Does anyone know if it can be fixed? I am in Victoria.

  • descry Descry 🇦🇺 // Twitch: DescryAU (@descry) reported

    30 minutes later after bandwidth limiting every device on the network so nothing bursts too high and trips the nbn policer... You know or NBN could just fix their god damn ****.

  • descry Descry 🇦🇺 // Twitch: DescryAU (@descry) reported

    Sorry everyone I'm gonna cancel todays stream. NBN is doing my head in and I'm still trying to limit my bandwidth for the entire router to avoid this NBN Pacer ******* the stream up. Asus WRT does not seem to be able to limit it enough.

  • Willzbakes Willow⁷♡ (@Willzbakes) reported

    Oh. My nbn is dead. Wtf telstra.

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @missizzyofficer Our technicians are already aware of this and are working with NBN to fix it as soon as possible. Unfortunately, there is no time frame for resolution at the moment. Apologies for the inconvenience and we appreciate your patience. Kartik

  • PunishedDilbert pünïshëd dÏlbërt (@PunishedDilbert) reported

    @ornkelly @Matthew60299053 @HaydenJOConnor If your 6 mbit/sec HD stream is stuttering on your 25 mbit/sec NBN service it’s probably not the last mile tech that’s causing the problem shaun

  • WatsonsTroops1 WatsonsTroops (@WatsonsTroops1) reported

    @fictillius Not a bad idea if they go ahead with it. I have FttP with a gigabit connection in a way its overkill but I enjoy it too, The nbn also probably need some work on their pricing structure

  • newcastleboyy Fearless Friend (@newcastleboyy) reported

    @gjblue @NBN_Australia NBN I have a question with regard to Greg’s situation. Charlestown is being upgraded from FTTN to FTTP with a estimated roadmap of around Julyish. Will Greg’s suburb of Warners Bay receive the upgrade to FTTP, as this could solve his problem?

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @TylerConstable1 We expect the shortage of nbn HFC Network Termination Devices (NTDs) to extend connection times to approximately 42-48 days from mid-May to mid-June 2021. We will continue to work with our industry partners to process and activate HFC orders during this time. 2/3

  • 68dodgephoenix Andrew Halliday (@68dodgephoenix) reported

    @HaydenJOConnor @catelizlouise I would prefer they pay the right amount of tax than compensate Murdoch for not innovating. Murdoch got his way with a **** NBN being delivered

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @dvdflwr This has resulted in delays to connect new nbn HFC customers to the nbn network. nbn is continuing to work with industry partners to process and activate HFC orders during this time. 2/3

  • ornkelly Sean Kelly (@ornkelly) reported

    @PunishedDilbert @Matthew60299053 @HaydenJOConnor Yes, it's probably the ISP's fault for not buying enough overage to cope with peak demand... Point is, the choppiness isn't blamed on ISPs being cheap but the NBN as a service. The perception of the consumer being that it's better having Foxtel, Dill

  • kaffando Completely over it. (@kaffando) reported

    Forced onto @NBN_Australia couple of months ago after very few issues prior. Now, full afternoon on no internet access. On a Friday. Trying to run a business. Thanks #NBN

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @missizzyofficer Hi Isabel, sorry to hear about your internet connection issue. Is this for an NBN connection? If so then yes, there is a fault reported in your area NORTHCOTE, VIC, 3070 at the moment. Kartik

  • philip_purcell Philip Purcell (@philip_purcell) reported

    New conspiracy theory - every time I call my #ISP to complain about slow speeds, there is never any identifiable problem and nothing they can do, but immediately afterwards the speed goes back to normal. Could it be they are choking our account assuming we won't notice? #nbn

  • JasonCarthew Jason (@JasonCarthew) reported

    @Telstra Yes. With only one nbn box for two connections. Not his fault. It was the person getting me to “trouble shoot” for over a day not listening to me in the first place. Easier to just stay on the 4G backup at this point.

  • ornkelly Sean Kelly (@ornkelly) reported

    @PunishedDilbert @Matthew60299053 @HaydenJOConnor Speaking of dumb as ****, straw man. If you think the argument is "NBN bad because Foxtel" then you clearly you haven't considered the effect of consumer perception nor speeds in non-metropolitan areas.

  • Corabko Dr Grant Morgan (@Corabko) reported

    @newcastleboyy @gjblue @NBN_Australia And my sisters kids having to come here to do there homework because their internet keeps failing. Although mines not better in Lambton 3 new modems from provider and the service is still super inconsistent thanks to copper that was overdue for upgrade before they decided on nbn

  • DuneHaggar Dune Haggar Draws (@DuneHaggar) reported from Dunsborough, State of Western Australia

    @descry My fav was having to prove to the nbn company (not my provider) there was an issue and having to do all that tech level terminal ping etc cut n paste for dayyyys and then them going oh it keeps failing the test? Lets escalate this now shall we

  • TPG_Telecom TPG (@TPG_Telecom) reported

    @kaffando Apologies for the inconvenience caused by the service disruption. NBN Co is performing a planned maintenance between 1:30pm and 4:30pm. -Charm

  • inluv41D alyssa • track 3&9 on NH3 • check 📌 (@inluv41D) reported

    @NBN_Australia It cuts out randomly for no reason... Also I was watching the Louis Tomlinson concert and it just cut out, luckily we fixed the issue.

  • peterly48047001 peter lynch (@peterly48047001) reported

    @TPG_Telecom Needs a overhaul your call centre . If listen to recording of all 7 foreigners u hear why TPG is getting a bad name .fixed the problem by calling a nephew 17 he found why cable from nbn was defective replaced it had harassing calls about it useless texts can’t wait to leave

  • MG_Coates Michael Coates (@MG_Coates) reported

    @AlboMP @AlboMP this is a meaningless statement parrotted by both sides. How about telling us how. Transitioning coal power workers to renewable manufacturing would be a great start. Show us some actual vision that's been sorely lacking since the ALP got beat down on the NBN

  • ornkelly Sean Kelly (@ornkelly) reported

    @PunishedDilbert @Matthew60299053 @HaydenJOConnor Speaking of dumb as ****, red herrings. If you think the argument is "NBN bad because Foxtel" then you clearly you haven't considered the effect of consumer perception nor speeds in non-metropolitan areas.

  • JasonCarthew Jason (@JasonCarthew) reported

    @Telstra He did but NBN red tape made it that I had to start another ticket. As you can imagine, I’m not leaping out of my chair to go through the text “choose your own adventure” again. Someone eventually called when they saw it didn’t actually fix it.

  • anna_spanner Anna (@anna_spanner) reported

    Ok someone please help - NBN Co are ridiculously hard to deal with. How the hell do I apply for a new NBN connection to an existing granny flat with its own Street Address but NOT lot number, where the main house already has an NBN connection??

  • descry Descry 🇦🇺 // Twitch: DescryAU (@descry) reported

    @DuneHaggar They need techs sent 3 times for no reason to escalate and show the nbn higher up team that its an issue within their end. @NBN_Australia are being a pain in the *** even though this issue isn't just effecting me.
