  @Someozbloke @deniseshrivell That's good in your circumstance. But it has been reported by others. I was more addressing why NBN is not a waste. The reason you still hear about it these days having issues is because of LNP screwing it up with a mixed technology approach. FTTP does not have these drawbacks.

  ACMA is NOT currently running a spectrum auction for LEO satellite broadband. In December 2025, ACMA decided against auctioning a large amount of expiring spectrum. Instead, they chose to renew the licenses held by mobile operators and NBN. Their reasoning was that auctions could disrupt existing services and slow down new technologies like low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Amazon's Project Kuiper is coming to Australia in mid-2026 through a major partnership with NBN Co. This will give Starlink its first real competition in the country, especially in regional and remote areas. This is generally good news for consumers because more competition usually means better prices and redundancy.

  @eevblog NBN don't have the equipment necessary to maintain their own network. More consultants will fix the problem.

  @eevblog How can an organisation like NBN not have its own HDD crews or a contractor on standby? Why does it need council permits to carry out emergency works when federal law lets telcos basically do what they want?

  @eevblog Seems like NBN is pushing down stream providers to jump off 5G to NBN. Which sucks because it’s stifling competition and providing a worse service at a more expensive price

  @telstra reception in Vermont South (near Sewart close) is crap. I logged a call (INC 40508228) as a @Telstra Gold member 6 months ago, today they told me it was fixed. It ain’t fixed. Still no 4G/5G and I’m paying for 4G backup on my NBN modem. This is beyond a joke.

  @trsrpc For context. Australia's NBN is still be rolled out years after it was sold as the best thing ever... Yet many have incredibly unstable internet or none at all.

  @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. 🇦🇺

  Recommendations for new NBN service, please? After 25 years, @Optus feels it's more important to reward new customers than existing ones. Anyone had experience with @Aussie_BB or @Kogan ?
