NBN Outage in Tamworth, State of New South Wales

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

@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!

@its_Aidos1 Honestly, when I was dealing with TPG during 12/21-3/22 I had the same issues over and over. I took out two accounts; one for home and the other, my investment property. Both modems did not work and 10000 phone calls later on top of NBN no-showing 3 times, I went elsewhere.

@RoadknightThe My optus nbn modem died and after a few chats was sent a new upgraded one at no cost plus $25 credit and 25gb on my mobile for the inconvenience. Very happy with their service.

@RoadknightThe Mate , log on to Telstra website , there is a complaint portal , fill that out , complain , say you have a sick person there & trust me they will get back to you really quickly , you may even speak to an Australian ! Are you on the NBN ? need to know

Another day, another @NBN_Australia outage in the Inner West. Really sick of unreliable internet. #LNPfail

Did anyone’s @TPG_Telecom’s NBN ago down in Potts Point / Rushcutters Bay / 2011?

@RoadknightThe Starlink is available in Victoria. The NBN was a dead technology destined to fail before it was even finished just as Tony Abbott predicted but was mocked for.

@RoadknightThe Put your address in on a couple of providers sites and see if any other nbn technology is available in your area. Strangely enough my neighbour has hfc optus and its bad but i have hfc telstra and its great.

@RoadknightThe They're lacking bandwidth I'd say. Typical problem across Aus on NBN

@Matt_Tulk Drop outs of the NBN service will rarely be the RSP. You may just be lucky there. Which POI are you on? Possible they have a contention issue (their published graphs would help isolate this) or a backhaul glitch (but that's unlikely to affect a small number of customers).

@Matt_Tulk I already have a business plan (for the substantially better SLA on NBN fixing **** when it breaks) and that's not actually that expensive over a retail plan. Enterprise plans (required for free fibre build) though are much more expensive (and require long term commitment).
