  @DaisyCousens @clementine_ford I’m using it too but not earning enough to give up my day job ... yet! Most people want access to contest but don’t want to support me as a writer, because they expect everything on the Internet for free. They don’t realise writers have bills to pay, including @NBN_Australia!

  I’ve forgotten what working without cabled NBN is like. With everything in the cloud and software as a service this is a nightmare. #auspol

  @STEVEFI14205588 when power and all communications services were out for 6 days after last flood my ISP disconnected my NBN service because i could not go online to pay my bill because the NBN and all mobile service was down. ironic that even when there is no service we still have to pay for it.

  @TheKouk Absolute bullshit, we were 0 under Howard, then 747 went big, Gillard and Rudd again, nbn commitments etc. Abbott slowed it down then Morrison due mostly to covid made it jump and now albo and jimflation have rocked it past 1t. You clowns can’t count

  @LeeroyLives @AngusTaylorMP So looking at that graph, the trajectory of expanding debt started under rudd and gillard and never went down Sounds about right. Looks to start that trajectory after the nbn started construction.

  @AnthonyDonB @Starlink Latency is terrible - it works but if you can get fibre / nbn - stick with that - even Elmo says it can’t compete with cable in cities

  So much for being notified of when the team were coming @NBN_Australia now I don’t know what’s happening with my connection as I’m interstate and my mum couldn’t hang around to see out what they were doing.

  Amazon Leo 🇦🇺 Australia NBN and Amazon’s LEO satellite internet service pushed to 2027 NBN Co and Amazon’s planned low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite-powered internet service is still a while away, with the latest update indicating a mid 2027 launch. It comes a year after the initial announcement confirming NBN Co’s partnership with Amazon. At the time, mid-2026 was the estimated start of the Amazon Leo (then known as Project Kuiper) satellite rollout. Now, the rollout is set to start “around mid-2027”, according to an online update attributed to Gavin Williams, NBN Co’s Chief Development Officer, Regional and Remote. Accompanying the announcement were more details about the NBN LEO service. As the rollout commences, NBN’s new satellite service “will be progressively available to homes and businesses across the NBN satellite footprint”. To begin with, eligible Australians will be able to access LEO internet “through participating Australian internet providers”. NBN Co also confirmed wholesale speed options of either 50Mbps downloads and 10Mbps uploads, or 100Mbps/20Mbps. Although those speeds aren’t higher than NBN’s existing satellite internet technology, the soon-to-be-retired Sky Muster array encounters notable speed drops during peak usage times, according to the ACCC’s Measuring Broadband Australia report. Sky Muster relies on geostationary (GEO) satellites, which orbit roughly 36,000km above Earth. LEO satellites operate much closer, with Amazon’s technology set to orbit at around 600 km. With less distance to travel, NBN’s upcoming service should improve latency and overall internet speeds for those reliant on satellite connectivity. By transitioning to the new satellite technology, NBN aims to compete more strongly alongside Starlink for rural Australians. ACCC’s reporting measured Starlink’s average download speed at 230.4Mbps on its premium $150 monthly Residential Max plan. For now, NBN Co plans to start testing the LEO service “later this year”, followed by customer trials before the intended mid-2027 launch.
