🇦🇺 Steve Penman 🇦🇺 (@Jade_Tiger62) reportedHow ******** is the $90,000,000,000 NBN fibre to the house internet, promised 500mbs in Australia run @ 30mbs at 9.30pm on a Wednesday night??????????? Another Australian government FAILURE 😡😡😡 Starlink tomorrow! **** you @NBN_Australia

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.

Snowhite62 (@Snowhite621) reported@PaulGugAI @OfficialLoganK @Starlink We were paying for 500gb of nbn directly to our house. Very rarely did we experience those speeds at all. We had numerous technicians come out to fix the issue and nothing changed. We got starlink delivered and set up and we havent lost anything since. We live rural too. 🇦🇺

Patricia (@callejap) reportedNBN has been down in my area all day. Time to get rid of #nbn and connect to my providers 5G

Denise Difficult-Shrivell (@deniseshrivell) reportedRemember when they all lied about the NBN? The ABC chief tech reporter was gagged from telling the truth! And that’s just one issue! #auspol
-
Loftwah (@loftwah) reportedWe pay like a $150 a month for the premium of Telstra mobile and it doesn’t even work immediately when out NBN drops. What are we even paying extra for? Fix your trash Telstra 😡😡 @Telstra
-
D_Shaw84 (@Shawzus84) reported@DrunkAt12 @OMGTheMess LOL nbn was required. Dont ******* mention starlink, the latency is far higher and hardwired fiber network is far more reliable.
-
Optus Help (@optus_help) reported@kni36182404 Hi Mike, can you please send us a direct message to confirm if it is the service address or billing address? Also confirm which service is the contract for, I mean mobile or NBN home internet? Kartik

nbn® Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported@DesignedToFade Hi Feliz, during an unplanned outage on the nbn network we keep your service provider up to date on all available updates like estimated restoration times and details of what's being done to fix the outage itself. As soon as we have any updates, we'll let your RSP know. 1/2
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@LambDownUnder @bigboatbruce @james00000001 We never had true competition before because Telstra controlled it all. We wouldn't be in the mess if LNP didn't sell Telstra as a single entity despite being advised to split. Then they wouldn't split and participate in the nbn build similar to NZ.

The Raven (@The_R_a_v_e_n_) reportedJFC NBN is absolutely dog ****. The 3rd world has better internet than this amateur backwater **** show. A monopolised racket propped up by taxpayers just like the ABC @NBN_Australia
-
Sir Peter the Bogan (@P_bogan) reportedSince Labor came back in, NBN speeds have doubled for the same $$$. But only for those on FTTP. Which the Libs ****'d up for 9 years thanks to Mr Internet Malcolm Turnbull. #qt
-
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.
-
Tony D (@tonydpoison) reported@Slackonbothsydz NBN. Treach was a problem.
-
Hydra Boom (@HydraBoom) reported@Telstra No outages, just the pathetic mobile coverage that is our only back up for nbn. Keep putting your cgarges up and the service keeps declining. You know about this problem, its been reported multiple times, fix the tower already.
-
jethro4445 🦉 (@cornhuskerj) reportedSo last week @Telstra rang out of the blue to ask if I had requested to change my nbn to another provider as they had received an order to transfer my service. I said no and the agent said okay he’d cancel the transfer order Then on Friday I received a message
-
Books (@Books4566) reportedAs usual @iinet and @nbn having their monthly ‘no Internet for a day’ period. No reason provided. As a customer you pay daily for service and they never credit your daily loss. Big companies can do what they want with impunity.

MrRuSs3LL (@mrru5s3ll) reported@ImVicLoLagain @LCHF_Matt @pikkkkaro He is saying that wifi is not internet, that's it. I have many services at home on my local network that I use my wifi to connect to that don't use the internet (NBN) at all. Fwiw I also have 2000/500 NBN with a capable router, 10gig switch and cat6a runs that support it. My internet is great by any standards, the only thing Australia does ****** (now - it wasn't this good a couple of years ago) is that we don't have symmetrical links for consumers. The whole point though is that the idiot OP thinks that "wifi" means internet, and it doesn't.

Nirgal451 🇦🇺🇺🇦 (@Nirgal451) reportedYour regular reminder: Snowy Hydro 2.0 was a stupid captain's pick by Malcolm Turnbull. Much like the NBN and Inland Rail. There were and are much better pumped hydro storage options. NSW did a whole investigation.
-
Millicent Bystander (@trickyidnego) reportedI look at this guy and all I see is rorted ****** internet. We have such poor leaders in Australia that they cant even recognise how basic, how integral, stuff like the nbn is to Australia. Still fixing yr mistakes, so stfu
-
Warwick Brown / CEO of HTMX (same thing) (@WarkickBrown) reported@Andrew_Godman @DPRVenjoyer @hisaflog100 Ironic since they now rely on the NBN to deliver their product following the end of their satellite service.

gordon malcolmson /malky🍀🇮🇪🏴🇵🇸💚 (@gordonmalcolms3) reported@racingblogger Terrible ride by NBN😒🐎🍀🇮🇪

Robotfix 🔰🗽🇦🇺 (@Robotfixx) reported@ruicharadrius State owned NBN is ****. As opposed to SK’s network (fastest in the world) which was privately built out. It’s already cost 50 billion dollars (if your money btw) and is climbing

melie doyle (@MelieDoyle) reported@TrilogyOfSeven @Starlink Short range wifi from NBN used to be a lot better than satellites… but a 7G booster? What the heck are they pushing that for? When people finally understand, a lot of companies are gonna go bust because they won’t be able to pay out all the claims. Direct to phone satellites, which if done right, can be done on 90 satellites, is better, but nobody is using it well. Regular satellites are unsafe, and don’t work… that’s why they need thousands of satellites. In 2011, hundreds of medical scientists petitioned the UN asking them to halt the roll out of 5G. The original documents, which I read, and are now hard to find, stated that such frequencies disrupt our nervous system, our neurological system, and damage DNA. They shared all the science. They also shared predictions based on what would happen if they moved forward. Many humans have been lost since 2019, as well as birds and insects. Independent studies show how many insects we have lost, not to mention that everyone talks about the fact that there are no bugs on their windshield anymore. Resonant frequencies inflame cells, and fry neural pathways. Insects have a more fragile system, which is why they are dropping first. The UN did pause in 2011, but by 2019, billionaires had paid the UN to state that it was all about the risk of heat burns, and they decided it wasn’t an issue. Since then, the scientists keep petitioning the UN, but the UN is bought and paid for. 😑 they aren’t doing anything to stop it.

Zack Brown (@ZackBro74245761) reported@RobToThheOz @over9000AU @AvidCommentator Making them good for top ups not but as a primarily fuel source. Two, VPP has never been tried at a city scale and would require a lot of new telecommunications infrastructure to implemented ie. we would have to implement a proper NBN rollout of some sort.

Ky Broome (@KyBroome35) reportedNow almost 5 hours into NBN being out for an unknown reason... Pretty pathetic tbh As such videos of Trade Targets and Team Reveals might be slow and late getting out
-
LCHF Matt (@LCHF_Matt) reported@markhumooney @SkyNewsAust BS. There is no need for this service in 2026. Phones, emergency text systems, NBN

What she said kaydensley@bsky.social. (@DensleyShe) reportedYou know how it goes. Labor outs in place big reforms, Libs get in and **** up the process. Just like NBN and copper. NDISS they let loose free enterprise rip offs.. You always vote with libs so……..
