ｓｅａｎ ｓａｒａｎ ｓｍｉｔｈ (@seansmith_au) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaI hate Australia’s NBN. Current speed is 2.4mbps. I’ve had constant problems with Iprimus. Ongoing for 7 weeks. Sick of contacting call centre. Thinking of breeding pigeons as an alternative. @iPrimusAU #nbn @NBN_Australia

NJT (@NatsterJane) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@thebeerbeagle @EE You could stay in Australia and have access to @Telstra's #5G network and the ever so reliable #NBN. Or just move @TwoTribesBrew HQ to Adelaide for @CityofAdelaide's 10 gigabyte, most connected city in the world.

Emily Fung (@iEmRollin) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaSo apparently NBN is down for quite a few areas in different states, good work making it not only slow but unreliable.

Anika Johnstone (@spokenly_) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@mattbowd @NBN_Australia I can’t even stream TV our current connection is so bad as we’re 4 kms from the Adelaide CBD. It’s ridiculous.

Lady Pooh (@LadyPoop2) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@joxer @lynlinking ARSEHOLES!! Fix the NBN!! It is Sub Standard - like the Government!!😠
-
andy (@andydomAU) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Aussie_BB @NBN_Australia Done and the faults been fixed since. Hopefully for good? Because last time there was a ‘it came good and sorted itself’ as an explanation and that’s never a fix.

Sregion (@Sregion2) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaLast night my internet provider said they’d raise a service request with NBN and a tech would attend within 24 hours. They just said they need to do another test w me tonight before they can raise the request. So it’ll be another night w no internet and no way to deliver prizes!

Migni☆nne D (@spark_mystique) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaIf I wasn’t damn locked into an existing contract with this provider, I would’ve signed up with 10 better NBN resellers out there 😡😠😤

Ultimate Fathering (@gacjezv) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@NBN_Australia get your **** together nbn - so many outages so much disruption - just ******* get it right.

-
Jamie Skella (@JamieSkella) reported from Adelaide, South Australia2/2 We are already preventing brand new business ideas from taking root here - they’re made unviable due to the embarrassing state of our “built and fully operational” NBN network. Now, we’re at risk of driving old businesses out as well. #auspol

m i c h a e l ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (@micwoodward) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@ScottMurphyAUS Jump on @Aussie_BB they are no bullshit NBN. Seriously good service
-
Christian Verdicchio (@c_verdicchio) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Optus you’ve done it again. #Floptus I’ve tried to assist setting up my mums home phone for a month now. You cancelled her nbn setup visit and still haven’t contacted her after a week and now send her another nbn box. You guys are the worst for customer service. @acccgovau

Leo James (@realLeoJames) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaTonight’s temperature will not drop below 28/29°C in #Adelaide... and the local power company has decided to switch power off at 11:00pm. - Also, after 36 HOURS, our home is still without internet. The #NBN is fine to take money from customers, but fails to deliver a service.
-
⛧ HYP3RSTRIKE (@hyp3rstrike) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@JAYovr It was similar where I worked too. Imagine relocating between NBN premises with the same technology type, and selling the exact same hardware to them under the pretense "it's locked to the old premises" just cop a modem purchase or recontract from the customer.

Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reported@THATS_RIGHT_YA @robb_j_m That download ping is faulty. Should be more like 20. Could be your computer, NIC, browser, or modem/router (and its settings). If you are with TPG you can log into your account and do an NBN test, which will check the line, and they'll contact you if there's a problem.

Lucas | 🇦🇺 (@TheBlackWallaby) reported@australian Even Tesla is made in China, so what is the actual issue here? This was sent from my Mac Mini, made in China, sitting on a desk made in China, connected to the NBN through a Wi-Fi gateway made in China, typed from my Logitech keyboard, made in China, while I sit in an office chair made in China, looking at a Samsung monitor made in, checks notes, Vietnam. At some point the argument has to get more precise than “China bad.” If the concern is connected vehicles, telemetry, firmware access, data storage, or fleet security for MPs, then make that argument properly and apply it consistently across all networked devices. But pretending Chinese EVs are uniquely suspicious while half the modern office supply chain is already Chinese-made is not analysis. My iPhone (made in China) is connected to my Apple Auto - driving me around tracking me on a GPS map, with a microphone that works, and the Head Unit (made in China) Where does it end?

Ian Richards (@IanRichards8) reported@robb_j_m Terrible internet access, NBN stands for NO BLOODY NETWORK

Berry Straw 🍓 (@ddnnddc) reportedACMA 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.

ronnymouse (@ronnymouse7) reported@eevblog this is why we have a fixed wireless connection as a backup, the NBN backbones they're connected to rarely go down

nbn® Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported@Peter_Strachan During an unplanned outage on the nbn network we keep your service provider up to date on all available updates like estimated restoration times and details of what's being done to fix the outage itself. As soon as we have any updates, we'll let your service provider know. 1/2

Chris Young (@Chyoung1) reported@SandyXiaotong Don't ever forget the NBN.....this fool decided that fibre to the house was stupid and uses old phone lines.....some people experienced dial up speeds! It's still be worked and now over $50 billion!
-
Alexandra Online 💅 (@AlexandraOn1ine) reportedSTILL NO WIFI T-T I called my provider and their solution was.... wait for the nbn to do their thing 🥹

Doug Hendo (@DougHendo) reported@iluminatibot I worked on the NBN my team was wrecked by the magnetic radiation we all new you cant be near high levels for a hour even. They turned the towers off for my team or it was maximum 10 minutes on the site at a time. The feeling is very very bad. I feel sorry for anyone who lives near high electromagnetic radiation. Another form is a VR very dangerous to children under 12 I've seen the damage a VR can do also 10 min at a time.

M (@imboudee) reported@THATS_RIGHT_YA @robb_j_m I doubt that’s a problem with the NBN infrastructure and perhaps more to do with your provider (TPG). I’m not sure what a 20 cm network cable has to do with much. At gigabit speeds I’d suggest a Cat7 network cable, to be sure to be sure. They’re fairly cheap nowadays.
