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.
-
LawHealthTech (@LawHealthTech) reported@cheynejfishing @bluewavedream I expect starlink may be better than the stupid 4G modems that the NBN was giving to farmers out in the wopps But for anyone who needs reliable, fast connection or a static IP to host some server or service... Fibre or VDSL is the only way to go
-
Boyd Rose (@Ftksuke235) reported@NBN_Australia Why has there been 5 outages in the span of 3 weeks at my address? One planned outage followed by 4 unplanned. Getting beyond a joke now.
-
Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@Thejimpenman Ask your serfs to shout you full fibre NBN Jimmy. That was under the Deposed LNP Crime org that ran up $850 additional debt, without creating one cent of legacy assett, whilst claiming to have paid down the existing $150 billion debt that took all prior govts 112 yrs to reach.
-
ph33x (@ph33x_) reported@Matt_Camenzuli @jabattoir13 @JuliaGillard I think she was worse than Turnbull. I must have missed other reasons Turnbull was terrible, but my one thing with him was wasting time and money on the NBN, we're still paying for full fibre rollout house-by-house, made sense to just do the lot once, less driving per-house.

💧Elizabeth Marr (@JmarrMarr) reportedNBN News If the Greek food truck guy cannot afford an extra $100 per week for fuel & has to increase the menu prices then he must be running a lousy business. He should wear the hit & keep his loyal customers, there won’t always be a fuel problem
-
pharos (@tea_and_sleep) reported@taipan168 @retrobike_c16 Not quite as bad as Abbott saying we don't need fttp NBN because people will just use it for Netflix
-
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.
-
Hobbie (@Hobbie4C) reported@Riogallica NBN is always a cluster. The whole NBN-ISP-customer chain is absolute *****. A virtual guarantee all problems will take longer to resolve.

SuthoDan (@SuthoDan2) reportedNBN outage on Super Saturday... This may be my villain origin story

🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reportedJust spent 1.5hrs with my ISP figuring out why my NBN had died. He (from Indian, a nice chap) put me through hoops & then said that the NBN box is faulty but can't get a tech out till next Tue. Then a light bulb moment hit me & said, what if I look at the metre box - sure enough, something had tripped the circuit in the room the NBN is hooked up to. I just didn't need the added stress. Then he had the hide to ask me to 'rate his service'. Yeah - nah!
-
There’s Only One Jezza (@StandMeOver) reported@herecomessuper And don’t forget the useless **** is the one who gave us NBN. That basically created another government run Telstra. For a technology that was never required.
-
WALLY BENCIC (@wpbencic) reported@Neety55 @45FirstLady Yes she did!and wasn’t it a joy to watch! That Conroy is such a smart arse arrogant prick! Made a disaster of the NBN rollout! These fools are never held accountable for disastrous blowouts in costs! Turnbull’s snowy 2 another great example!

Mike Ellsmore (@MGAroadster) reported@NBN_Australia my nbn is not working.

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

DBMG 🇦🇺 (@dbmgreen) reported@james00000001 NBN 50000km of new copper wire $.7bil Now Telstra/NBN have to retrofit secure pits to stop people stealing the copper. Not a problem with all fibre. The LNP completely screwed AUS all the while paying their mates millions to manage it. #industrialisedcorruption

UngayMelbourne (@UngayMelbourne) reported@ausworkers2025 @gigabasedd No defence protection, no medicare, no shipping ports, no rail network into Australia, no dole, no NBN, no NDIS, no freeways, no one to police imports still have 90000 aborigines to look after.

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.

iliketowastemytime (@Au_Fraser) reported@padders001 @LdogExtreme ***** how ******** is coles and woolies supply dominance a failure of the government? they should fine them more right? imagine if the libs werent ******* retarded and actually managed to put a decent NBN in for one and itd be ******* done by now, let alone NSW corruption

Teo (@TeoMorabito) reportedI just found out RCS (rich communication services) isn't available in Australia thanks to @Optus @Telstra @NBN_Australia WTF seriously
-
𝚁 𝚊 𝚐 𝚒 𝚗 𝚐 (@lRagingI1) reported@MalFPS_ Australian internet isn’t bad anymore. Your probs still on fibre to the node. Gotta search your address on the nbn site and get that free fttp update
-
🇦🇺 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
-
Patricia (@callejap) reportedNBN has been down in my area all day. Time to get rid of #nbn and connect to my providers 5G
-
Munted (@use_insert) reported@NBN_Australia Can you pull your finger out and at the BARE MINIMUM, updated your website with outages. Yorke Peninsula SA Over an hour offline and your 💩 website says “No Outages” ISP confirms that you are the problem 🙄
-
Ryan Emery (@ryanremery) reportedSigned up with @VodafoneAU 2 weeks ago for FTTP. My internet then stopped working. @VodafoneAU customer service claimed existing FTTN had been canceled. @NBN_Australia says no. Got FTTP today. Now receiving my "cancelled" FTTN and not FTTP 500MBS I requested 2 weeks ago.
-
Ryan Emery (@ryanremery) reportedSo the FTTN service that had been supposedly canceled is now working. @VodafoneAU claimed it was my modem. I'm using that same modem/router connected to the NBN fibre optic. Either it's a miracle or something broken got fixed.
-
Steph McG (@oohaah_67) reported@Telstra now it’s a joke hey! Hamlyn Terrace and surrounding areas without 5G for the last couple of days. If you can’t fix or find the fault how about deploying mobile towers. Not everyone has NBN connectivity.
-
Warwick Brown / CEO of HTMX (same thing) (@WarkickBrown) reported@hisaflog100 The original sin was Rudd and Conroy decreeing that NBN access charges must be flat across the whole network.
