NBN Outage in Perth, State of Western Australia

@NBN_Australia Let’s be clear - my provider @iinet knows nothing about what is going on. The fact that there was a service technician at my house was a complete surprise to them. And the technician disconnected me *before* letting me know. Glad I wasn’t doing anything important.

I’d also like to thank the @iiNet support staff out of whom I had to drag every last detail about how the @NBN_Australia fault investigation process would proceed.

I’d like to thank the @NBN_Australia service personnel who decided to “test” my connection, breaking it in the process, and who didn’t think to inform me he was here until *after* he’d started work. Thanks to him, my previously functioning internet connection now isn’t working.

@shibz_1989 @DeadlineDavis @LachlanLachlang @McTez I’m on the NBN 100 and get 93 down and 35 up consistently.

@reece_wagner I’m getting 16 down with ADSL. @NBN_Australia was due here in Feb. It was changed to August 2020. Now back to May 2019.

@BroHilderchump Wireless NBN. Not just wireless, virtually signal-less too.

@independentaus @vmp9 @paulbudde Providers ***** about NBN's high wholesale costs squeezing their margins, but if wholesale cost was lower retail competition would compete away those margins too. The issue for carriers is they no longer have infrastructural barriers to entry which they seek to resurrect with 5G.

@independentaus @vmp9 @paulbudde The key problem for NBN then and now, is that all Govts , starting with Labor, have pretended the NBN is an investment that can pay a bond rate of return and hence be off the books - free to tax payers, resulting in penny pinching hence slow and over priced. #auspol

@CannonFodderJnr My current one is NBN ready but we actually use TPG's own FTTB and it seems like they're the only network which passes those savings down lol

@Joshy206 Yeah they've been better than other options but in general other provider network connections are more expensive than NBN, unfortunately.

Signed a lease, found out afterwards that the building isn't actually NBN despite being told it was, it's a separate network with select providers, meaning we have to cancel our current contract AND find a provider on that small list (which are all more expensive and bad reviews)

Signed a lease, found out afterwards that the building isn't actually NBN despite being told it was, it's "LBN", a separate network with select providers, meaning we have to cancel our current contract AND find a ****** provider on that small list

@germmuffin no the nbn fixer people fixed the outage

Woke up to another nbn outage time to play some Diddy kong racing

@NBN_Australia There is nothing you could possibly say to me that would make me like the service, the best part of the service is the customer service of @AussieBroadband
