NBN Outage in Gawler, State of South Australia

Fark me. The nbn is that slow even their technicians can't turn up on time, even with a 4hr window.

@Optus Second time a NBN technician has not bothered to come, well done @Optus, such great customer service. You guys are a joke.

@SlatteryNetwork @TurnbullMalcolm @HardieGrant As someone who relies on the crap FTTN 10km from the #Adelaide CBD, everytime the #NBN crashes, we yell out "Thanks Malcolm" and curse the day he was born.

@TurnbullMalcolm You sold us a shit sandwich NBN, under the technical prowess of PM Abbott. Least you could do is own it. Coming to you from a 4G home modem, because the copper is shit.

@JezNews I am avoiding NBN too...and to think of the service we could have had!

Even the #nbn is going into recession (slowing down day by day)

@MelissaLDavey Ah they finally realise how bad #NBN is !!!

@TPG_Telecom 4am and right on cue, no WiFi. Happens every night, several times. I work nights until quite late so this is when I relax and watch tv. We have no digital tv signal here so all our news and media comes through the NBN. 😣 So frustrating when it consteantly drops out.

@themann @mpesce NBN proves slow and expensive gets built.

@Spazmo4 No! I’m calling the nbn **** heads now. Like they never understand it’s work related as well! Like I need t stream! -.-

@Spazmo4 Apparently all nbn are down due to the fires!

@NBN_Australia We just got our NBN connection back 15 minutes ago (after 13 hours of outage), @Telstra is still showing an outage page on their website tho.

So apparently NBN is down for quite a few areas in different states, good work making it not only slow but unreliable.

Is it even Christmas in Australia if you don’t complain about the NBN not working. #Christmas #NBN

@LAMcCormick @NBN_Australia Exactly. It’s so hard to pick, at times there are some providers are so far ahead of the rest, and other times where they’re competing for who is worst. We’re hoping this last month and a 1/2 is refunded - the service was shocking!

Tonight’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.

Demand side types - fix energy, NBN and boost research incentives (higher ed and corp)

@AaronDodd @jason_om Y'know, I wonder how much a metre that cable is, as I might get them to run a fibre from the house down the street, cheaper than the #NBN! 😎

@Internode The cable is only a year old. However in the time it took to send that tweet, the red light on the modem came on, so I reset it and were away. Odd that I’ve had issues two days in a row. Could it be related to the NBN construction going on.

@mormorlady GOOD!! FIX THE NBN, YOU BASTARDS!!

@TurnbullMalcolm @NBN_Australia I curse your train wreck every day it is a **** of an excuse for a broadband service. 😠

@skegmalone @Telstra @NBN_Australia Looks like it. My local community page reports outage all the way from Illawarra down south coast.

The NBN has crashed down the south coast of NSW to the Vic border. If the LNP were building infrastructure for **** they would get the lot. Build it faster & better my arse, even Stuart Robert couldn't operate with this model.

Great, NBN outage across much of the Illawarra on a Saturday night

@Lowrider1745 @Trixie_Boo @SenatorSiewert @ScottMorrisonMP @stuartrobertmp Well if LNP are the best we've got, we're truly F*cked. Worst Govt. in living memory. Bushfire response=hopeless, economy tanking long before the pandemic, doubled net debt, rorted billions. screwed NBN, lied incessantly, blatantly corrupt, & that's only for starters.

Dear @TPG_Telecom I am already angry from everythin that’s happening in the US. Sending me the wrong modem for my NBN installation doesn’t help. And on top of that, I’ve spent almost 4 hours on the phone trying to get through to ur customer service department for answers!! Fix it

@KeCAaron I agree the upload speeds are terrible especially in proportion to the dl speeds when you look at the ratio for lower plans. I can see the argument for upload not being as important on residential plans though (and business plans have expected ratios). NBN dream died 7 years ago

@nbn Dear NBNCo, you happily report no current outages on your website and yet my street has not had usable internet for 5 days. Apparently we can expect this every time it rains because you have not waterproofed your comms pits (according to the NBN tech trying to fix it).

@trevorlong @Aussie_BB The only problem is that when the NBN techo who switched us on a year or so ago tested the line, the maximum speed from the node on the street was just over 100Mbps unless NBN can speed up the line when they're ready to upgrade us.

@HamishMacEwan @AAMCommons @KevinCarson1 yeah it could've been done differently, I agree. But it's great we've done it and now its cost regulated with good info on costs. Not a bad outcome, especially compared to the NBN debacle over the ditch.
