@AlboMP Why waste your time and taxpayers money pretending to protect kids?. The government monopoly NBN internet service is constantly down. No warnings, no apologies, no refunds for the service not delivered. It’s a disgrace and sums up your useless government perfectly.

@rhyzii_ @AbstaAU Will say nbn isn’t bad but we are still so far behind other countries in terms of having top internet for cheaper, I’m paying 115 for 250mbs and 30 upload which we should be getting around 1gb up for that

@reignitedem 1. Do they have the technology to force it? 2. Will internet providers be involved in forcing? 3. What will happen if we all cancel our Nbn?

Do you wanna hear them whinge about the fact I don't have the NBN coz it makes hacking slower for them while also hear them go on & on about how I only deserve poverty & don't deserve more than a ****** 4G network/ADSL2+ equiv. Coz both. It's always both sides. All justification.

BREAKING: Telstra customers have been warned that triple zero calls are currently unavailable in some parts of north east New South Wales. The outage is impacting mobile, NBN, ADSL and landline connections, with Telstra attributing the issue to severe weather across the region. “We’re making good progress restoring services following the severe weather in north east NSW,” said a Telstra spokesperson. “Widespread power outages are affecting parts of our network and our technicians are working closely with authorities to get in and bring services back online when it is safe to do so.”

@dogeofficialceo I just got Starlink installed. I live next door to my parents and they still use the NBN satellite broadband (in Australia) and it is so painfully slow that i usually give up half way through doing nearly anything. Yep.

@larment_peri @ClareONeilMP Gloating about a problem they created by importing 4x as many as policy dictated. 5hey always ignore the numbers and make it up as they go. NBN cost, net zero targets and cost, immigration numbers, budget costings etc etc etc

Nope. Grok told me so. And in the worst case scenario traffic can be redirected from satellite to satellite to a ground based receiver outside of Australia. Does Starlink’s Traffic Use the NBN? Starlink, operated by SpaceX, provides satellite-based internet via a constellation of low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, delivering connectivity directly to user terminals (e.g., dishes) without relying on terrestrial broadband networks like the NBN for the core data transmission. Here’s the analysis: Technical Independence: Starlink’s service bypasses traditional ground-based infrastructure for the bulk of its data delivery. It uses its own network of satellites and ground stations (e.g., the Boorowa, NSW station) to connect users, meaning its traffic doesn’t route through NBN’s fiber, copper, or satellite (Sky Muster) networks. This is a key selling point—rural Australians like Grant Vowles in Tasmania switched from NBN to Starlink for speeds up to 200 Mbps, far exceeding Sky Muster’s 25-100 Mbps, precisely because it operates independently. Integration with Local Providers: However, partnerships like Telstra’s resale of Starlink services introduce nuances. Telstra Satellite Internet, powered by Starlink, includes a Smart Modem with a Wi-Fi home phone line, suggesting some integration with local networks for ancillary services (e.g., voice over Wi-Fi). Yet, the primary internet traffic—data downloads and uploads—still relies on Starlink’s satellite link, not NBN infrastructure. The requirement for a Starlink Ethernet Adaptor to connect to Telstra’s modem further indicates a separate data path, not a handover to NBN. Critical View: The establishment narrative often frames Starlink as a direct competitor “bleeding” NBN customers (e.g., 200,000 users by 2025), implying a clean break. But the lack of transparency about backhaul (e.g., how ground stations connect to global internet) leaves room for doubt—some data might indirectly touch NBN or other Australian networks at peering points. Still, no evidence suggests Starlink’s core traffic depends on NBN, making the answer largely no.

@ArsenBalls I get heaps of data I never use on my phone. I tried to just use that instead of paying for NBN to stream but it was impossible.
