    @ZappedAU You can do a 250 x 100 or 500 x 200 on BASE NBN plans or 250 x 250 or 500 x 500 on NBN Enterprise but costly. The biggest problem we have is that WW servers are filling up with stuff that might get very few views this actually costs us more money for paid Google of MSFT plans.

    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.

    @McB72706194 I had FTTP NBN which had been with them for months and when it stopped working they told me NBN wasn't available at my address & the box must've been installed but not connected to the network. The apartment had been there for 11 years at the time

    @fainty6 @bradfogarty101 As am I. Didn't see it as the nbn is down here. I will still take the try as fans of other teams take the try when they are scored from forward passes.

    Do you remember you said you looked up who owns Australian Internet and I never have to pay for it anyway and with NBN there would be arrangements and then you outsourced the company. #auspol

    @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?

  • qexdval dexq (@qexdval) reported

    @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

  • David_J_Ward David Ward (@David_J_Ward) reported

    @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.

    @craigkellyAFEE @Starlink running a VPN might bypass the Government reach as the stream wont be coming through the NBN network Somebody with further technical expertise may be able to help verify

    @craigkellyAFEE Starlink. (The NBN is absolute shite anyway.) Elon will never go for this crap.
