  @andy_penn $tls is a doomed investment entity! It’s unsustainable to charge a higher price for an inferior product! Telstra’s special skill is to charge twice for the same nbn or phone line or even entertainment AND make it impossible for customers to get any customer assistance!

  @AndNowItsTime @NBN_Australia I feel your pain. NBN contractors damaged my unit and then redid the installation by laying cable on the garage floor. You're right about lazy, they take easy way irrespective of what it looks like. I've lodged a complaint but wait with baited breath.

  @THE_Russell Wow. Just when you thought This buffoon Gov. Would never beat Their farcical NBN Catastrophe. $ 80 Billion spend on a system little better than what it replaced? Now Spending double that on Subs that will be obsolete 15 years before they are delivered?

  Appraisal of accomplishments of the LNP Gov's 9 year reign. Ditched the Price on Carbon', dumped the super profits mining Tax', Spent millions of extra dollars downgrading our NBN'. No wonder we now Have **** Internet, Huge power bills, and mining billionaires who pay SFA tax

  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!

  @Fil_S69 @bluewavedream Except you're wrong, wireless is a shared medium, the more people on it the slower it goes. Before you lot were all "5g will be better than nbn" but now if you go anywhere a lot of people have phones (fireworks/games)... hows your service?

  @MakoFukasame poor NBN guy, hated by all

  @basedhaerin @50ShadesOfSeoul Data cap home internet plans used to be common before the NBN. Yeah true they were mostly a drastically slowed service rather than a hard stop (like slowed to dial up speeds), or there would be exceeds usage charges. However they were advertised as X GB per month.

  @Borindas_Lament @pikey14 Like the NDIS or the NBN or Snowy were "costed"? They seem to be the only party talking about actually reducing spending, fraud and waste. Like all parties they will over promise and under deliver but at least they are raising these things as actual issues

  @SocialPiranha3 Exactly! The power to the computer/NBN etc is running fine but pretty sure the power point I use for the sandwich maker is still out! Damn!

  @pikkkkaro The wifi will only improve if the internet connections are better. So the problem is the nbn network cable & fibre optics not the wifi.

  @AlboMP NBN increases that you made, are costing us an extra 300 dollars a year. Forcing us to consume an internet that you can charge more for at any moment is an extrotion racket. I hope you fix this asap. Any mandatory expectation should be met with free service or cheap rates.

  Never forgive these mealy-mouthed figure fudgers and their second rate outcomes. The #NBN 🤬

  @Matt_Camenzuli @jabattoir13 @JuliaGillard I think she was worse than Turnbull. I must have missed other reasons Turnbull was terrible, but my one thing with him was wasting time and money on the NBN, we're still paying for full fibre rollout house-by-house, made sense to just do the lot once, less driving per-house.
