  @LennaLeprena @Loud_Lass I talk to people in mainland China quite a lot. They use VPNs to bypass the firewall, otherwise the only SM is the one approved by the government. Censorship is a bad idea all around, but I can absolutely imagine the bigoted wasteland ScoMo would make of our already crap NBN!

  On the phone to AussieBB, wow since yesterday’s outage I had 25 dropped connections. I’d like to say ‘damn HFC’ but apparently not necessarily. Anyway it’s time for the NBN man in the van to do his thing.

  @GamersNexus @HardwareUnboxed Though I've got mine on a special early-bird deal, pay 30AUD for like 55GB per month. Though am using the Optus network so it's usually congested during the day and only get 50/20Mbps with my S10+ in the middle of the night xD Which is the same speed as my NBN :P

  @stevol321 @InsidersABC @David_Speers NBN and NDIS were ALP ideas, too. When has that stopped the LNP from stuffing things up? Try to tell your provider you're not going to w-f-d. RC told them what was needed, but did they fix the problems? LNP have been in for 7 years, complain about ALP when they're in.

  Woman phoning me: Hi this is so & so from the NBN network. When was the last time you used your NBN? Me: The last time was when I set up a device to scan my phone for scammer details. Her: *Hangs up on me* How rude! I was going to tell her all about the fake device lol

  @BeeCeeAudio @TonyAbbottMHR Yes Tony but you almost doubled net debt in the process. Screwed up the #NBN, ripped of the poor sick and dying. Caused power prices to go through the roof Etc etc A useless incompetent govt #AusVotes2019

  REALLY disappointed that @NBN_Australia can’t seem to fix a basic problem which has left dozens of customers stranded in Glen Osmond since Thursday. Each tech handballs it to another.🤬

  💧(づ￣ ³￣)づ 🐨🦘 (@TheNightFlower) reported 54 minutes ago from Adelaide, South Australia

  @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.

  @thebeerbeagle 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 gigabit, most connected city in the world.

  @hisaflog100 The original sin was Rudd and Conroy decreeing that NBN access charges must be flat across the whole network.

  @SocialPiranha3 Yeah I do the Aldi $23 a month on mobile and now have almost 247.6 gb rollover data ... handy when the local NBN goes down.

  Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott should go over and support the US and Israel himself. We won't forget the NBN.

  @markhumooney @SkyNewsAust BS. There is no need for this service in 2026. Phones, emergency text systems, NBN

  harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported 11 minutes ago

  @NBN_Australia It always does this. I shouldn't have to use a different device. I work in IT and have tried it on 46 laptops and 23 phones. Literally went into the pit on the street and took out all the NBN cabling as the NBN never works so Im now im with another company and couldnt be happier

• 
  Hydra Boom (@HydraBoom) reported 14 minutes ago

  @Telstra No outages, just the pathetic mobile coverage that is our only back up for nbn. Keep putting your cgarges up and the service keeps declining. You know about this problem, its been reported multiple times, fix the tower already.

  I am too lazy to proof read and edit the below from grok, we had a chat in the car and below is the direct output for a post from grok, 85% my intent but could use some polish… (it gave me 3x image prompts, images from grok attached are also not proofed.) - enjoy: Why Starlink Roam Falls Flat in Australia (And How to Fix It) Honest opinion: Starlink Roam is brilliant on paper—$80 a month for 100GB priority data, perfect for caravans, motorhomes, or pros working on the go in the outback. But in reality? It’s poop for mobile use. Australia’s endless trees, dense bushland, and tunnels (think Bruce Highway or any regional drive) block the line-of-sight to satellites constantly. You’re crawling along at zero bars half the time, burning data elsewhere or offline entirely. Great for static campsites, useless in motion. The glaring hardware oversight: No LTE/cellular failover. Starlink Mini (or next-gen) should’ve shipped with an eSIM slot for Australian carriers like Telstra or Optus. When sats fail, auto-switch to 4G/5G local network as a hotspot—seamless, like your phone. Caveat: ACMA spectrum rules (IMT bands for terrestrial mobile) might need carrier partnerships, but it’s doable—Telstra/Optus already partner with Starlink for direct-to-device sat-to-phone using those bands. NBN fixed-wireless modems do exactly this: SIM failover when fibre/cable drops, approved under existing regs. If it’s green for NBN, it should be for Starlink Roam. Pricing fix for AU market: Base $19 add-on for up to 10% cellular failover (10GB on the $80 plan), covering Starlink’s wholesale data costs. Double to $38 for 100% cellular option if you’re in eternal tree hell. Keeps it affordable, competitive with eSIM hotspots, and actually usable. Starlink, take notes—Gen3 Mini or beyond, make it hybrid. Aussie travellers deserve better. What do you reckon? Roll it out!
