    @Antony_Clements @NBN_Australia The Telstra ad with the pianist who swaps seats, “seamless” It has NEVER worked.

  • merryboffin Sophie (@merryboffin) reported

    Anyone else have their NBN go super slow when it’s hot? Love that the cabling isn’t able to handle temps above 28’

  • vhatelse anthony stipanov (@vhatelse) reported

    I wonder how many people try and mess with NBN co by trying to fix or alter things at properties other than their own?

  • tamworth1965 GG (@tamworth1965) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @AlboMP @dailytelegraph NBN installation has been nothing short of disgraceful, still have problems in Tamworth, So slow, too many interruption notices.

  • TheTeshTube Tesh, Cosmic Disappointment (@TheTeshTube) reported

    HFC NBN requires an on site box before the router, this box does not apply NAT but does provide a local IP, but they have honed in on this IP and assumed its the cause of all my issues,

  • stevage1 Steve Bennett (@stevage1) reported

    My NBN connection has been down for the last couple of days, so no internet. NBN co has sent a technician to fix it. The tech's name? Ping.

  • kdvale ken (@kdvale) reported

    @TPG_Telecom Hey. NBN is down currently. Mt Druitt area. Can you confirm for any faults or outages?

  • Antony_Clements A Wheelie Fungi B.Ci🚹♿ (@Antony_Clements) reported

    @vanessa2work @NBN_Australia Bunmer. When mine goes down i unplug it wait for 30 seconds and plug it back in and it swaps to cellular. Perhaps yours is the same?

  • quinndagit ThisisDrLove (@quinndagit) reported

    @whosdatchik_ I havent really been utilising my time off work well to play fortnite.... yesterday there was a suburb wide planned outage of the NBN which we werent notified about.. then today server down lol

  • dr_mattyg DrMattyg (@dr_mattyg) reported

    @PressClubAust @abcnews Robodebt, NBN, Indue, Women's safety, Aged care, Uni's, all failures with a capital F. Then he uses the only good plan written by poor Karens Andrews as a way to make him seem economically attractive. The thing is Unis will take 10yrs to recover the damage done by SM.

  • jtparker72 💧Justin - vaxed! (@jtparker72) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @AlboMP @dailytelegraph You bunch of clowns stuffed the #nbn. It was going to be Fibre but you made it copper ****! FFS stop the lies, stop just F’ing stop the lies.

  • za4015 Barry Campbell (@za4015) reported

    @NBN_Australia & @iiNet another wasted afternoon where @NBN_Australia failed to turn up or contact the end user to advise they were again palming off their wet network as an outage, not sending anyone. Probably the worst communication between allegedly what are comma companies

  • Chickolsson Chick Olsson (@Chickolsson) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @AlboMP @dailytelegraph Sorry to report Paul, NBN is still pretty much awful in most country areas, with only patchy satellite coverage avail at times. Sorry mate, its a dog.

  • LFCSamara Michael Samarasinghe (@LFCSamara) reported

    @Optus my business NBN service has been down for 2 days. I’ve spent over 6 hours on hold only to get told it’s being looked at. No communication back. Trying to operate a restaurant. POS system, printers to kitchen, card payment system, music system all not working.

  • ivaforgotton ive forgotton (@ivaforgotton) reported

    F#cken Optus: NBN down 16:30onthe 1/2/2020 till o:300 2/1/2022 You Make shaw it goes down after closing time ya C#nts

  • Saxdude26 Saxdude26 #DisabledButProud #RaymanRedemption (@Saxdude26) reported

    @Aaronsmith333 NBN is too slow to support the cloud/digital only versions of Kingdom Hearts coming to Switch. So Australia is not getting them, period. This fact alone says everything you need to know. We are being left behind because our internet sucks. @PaulFletcherMP, who are you kidding?

  • mishyloan Michelle (@mishyloan) reported

    @naomi_t_81 @StephenJonesMP And as for spoofing calls and "do you want solar panels" and "your computer has an issue with Microsoft" and "NBN issues" and and and... Where the hell is the Minister for Communications? At the cricket too?

  • 2xPfizer Omicron Super Mild 25's🚬 (@2xPfizer) reported

    @fictillius @launtel NBN will say it costs more and most people won't appreciate the benefit for the cost increase that will be passed on to consumers. Faster upload speeds have never been a selling point really as far as I can remember.

  • AdinahDawn Adinah (@AdinahDawn) reported

    @NBN_Australia All Australian internet sucks. Do better Australia

  • WindsorBeaver Windsor Beaver (@WindsorBeaver) reported

    @Telstra @dtacotony Thanks, you still disconnected my service without warning even though I’m over $800 in credit. Apparently, you decided you can get NBN boxes now. Very entertaining.

  • TheTeshTube Tesh, Cosmic Disappointment (@TheTeshTube) reported

    ive now spent 4 days on an issue they assumed i had, which i do not (double nat) as the second local ip is due to how HFC NBN works in australia, but they ignored the reply where i told them that and just asked to see another traceroute without the IP which is impossible

  • peternlewis Peter N Lewis (@peternlewis) reported

    My NBN Internet is down. @Optus spent half an hour (on hold and running a test) to give me a case number and a "someone will contact you". Sigh. Looks like a “Snow Day” for me.

  • vhatelse anthony stipanov (@vhatelse) reported

    Lived in the same house for over 20 years and had NBN since it's inception, but NBN needs proof of occupancy to come and fix something. FFS

  • Se77Evans Simon Evans (@Se77Evans) reported

    Awesome. Wireless #NBN signal is too **** to watch Netflix again today. Guess I'll get the standard reply "We're sorry to hear this. Have you talked to your internet provider?" response.

  • Stirling_89 Stirling Llorente (@Stirling_89) reported

    @NBN_Australia Says there's an unplanned power outage

  • magichuenicorn Magichuenicorn (@magichuenicorn) reported

    @SuperSpuddles The stupid storm just made things more humid AND fried my MODEM and NBN I DIE

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @Stirling_89 Hi Stirling, I'm sorry to hear that you've been experiencing issues with your NBN. If you send through your complete address via direct message I can see if there's any updated information I can give you about this service reduction. - Harrison

  • MoonfireDragons Scarkii (@MoonfireDragons) reported

    okay so great news, the nbn people are coming in tomorrow apparently to fix the wiring cause a ******* rat chewed through it apparently, so tomorrow should be a stream hopefully! i miss y'all so much, i can still use this internet but DEAR GOD ITS SO SLOW

  • NitaGTAlexander Nita Alexander (@NitaGTAlexander) reported

    @DannyTelemachus I've lodged many a complaint! Even had my house internet wiring re-done. NBN technicians have come out once already, found some "touching wires" on the street corner. Hasn't fixed it though.

  • LFCSamara Michael Samarasinghe (@LFCSamara) reported

    @Optus my business NBN has been down for 2 days and still no news back from your support team as to when it can be resolved. Can’t use our POS, cant take card payments etc. It’s a complete debacle. I’ve spent 6 hours on hold over the last 2 days. WTF is going on!?
