    Leo James (@realLeoJames) reported from Adelaide, South Australia

    @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!

    @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.

    @ScottMurphyAUS Jump on @Aussie_BB they are no bullshit NBN. Seriously good service

    @LindaMelisande This area of Adelaide either the internet is bad or the NBN is bad . When the temp is over 30 net drops out constantly so we have to reset the NBN constantly in the heat .

    @NBN_Australia BTW, @NBN_Australia my mobile phone is with another provider so I can't get extra free data from Telstra while the problem is resolved.

    @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.

    @amywhodigital @Archaeometry Ugh. We’re going down the prepaid 4g modem route and praying for nbn soon. I don’t understand why all of this is so hard especially for you in the CBD!!

  • realLeoJames
    Leo James (@realLeoJames) reported from Adelaide, South Australia

    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.

    @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.

    @Aussie_BB Awesome, thanks for the update! Curious, this would have still been a problem if my NBN connection would have been FTTP (instead of FTTC) or it didn't really matter in the end?

    Come on @internode. Been a customer for years and referred so many to you. But to email you on Tuesday about my NBN being on and off and still haven’t heard back. It’s Saturday night.

    @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.

  • spokenly_
    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.

    @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

    @Ben_Davison1 Education has gone to ****, roads no different, rail basically doesn't exist, NBN is a worthless attempt at 30 yr old tech, electricity and gas is expensive, refusal to build any water infirstructure. The law was subverted decades ago and civil society doesn't come from gov.

  • imboudee

    @Justme136160 @robb_j_m To be fair, David is not wrong. Telcos will use the NBN infrastructure as they see fit. It’s cheaper to pay to use the NBN infrastructure that is already there than to lay down their own fibre. In fact, telcos like Optus and Telstra are already NBN providers.

  • larry_the_van
    Graham Heathcote (@larry_the_van) reported

    @wilburston @robb_j_m $110 per month is more expensive than most NBN plans - unless you’re out of NBN range and need satellite, Starlink will never be better - it’s physically impossible.

    resorting to personal hotspotting on my mac and iPad cause apparently nbn speeds in suburban melbourne are just that slow atm

  • osborne_sam
    Samuel ⏳ (@osborne_sam) reported

    @ItsMissShorty @robb_j_m Just want to help you with your terminology. Wifi (802.11x) is free, it’s the technology between the router/modem and your device. NBN or Internet service provider is the ongoing cost. You can use NBN and not use Wifi, you plug a network cable between the router and your computer. If you hotspot your phone or have a 5G hotspot device, that still uses Wifi between that device and the other devices connected to it. You’re still using Wifi if you have multiple devices using the mobile data. All you’ve changed is the internet connection from being NBN (which is typically fibre, phone line, or point to point wireless (not WiFi) - and maybe the latter is what you go rid of and have conflated the two different wireless technologies. Considering you are likely still using Wifi, and now also 5G, health benefits aren’t improved. A healthier alternative is NBN or Starlink and cable connection (but obviously phones and many devices don’t support cables).

    Terrible service from @NBN_Australia One of their field techs accidentally cut off our whole Strata building with a bad telecommunications patch next to the NBN Node. I told the tech (27hours ago) but they went home without fixing it. A Level 2 escalation has yielded nothing. Gr

    @robb_j_m Outside the urban centres, $139 a month for Starlink. NBN for me was a slow and expensive skymuster satellite. Thanks Elon.

    @craigkellyAFEE @Sauronlordking Free internet would be cheaper than FTA TV FTA TV (FY2025-26) Total estimated annual government expenditure/support on all FTA TV A$1.64 billion NBN Financial year 2025, ended 30 June 2025), NBN Co’s total operating expenses were approximately A$1.6 billion.

    @BanderaBeau @BikoKonstantin1 @AlboMP It doesn’t work because each government is interested in keeping power that the next government wouldn’t implement the next step. Massive changes like this can only get over the line if the solution is obvious & unanimous. Even then one single government can **** things up eg NBN

    @cuffs1971 @robb_j_m @NBN_Australia Eh? You're saying, that because Australia has economies of scale, that fibre is more expensive?!? That's upside-down world! NBN has *way* more customers to spread the infra costs over. If anything, fibre should be cheaper in Australia than NZ, surely?
