    Hi @Telstra. My internet has been down for 3 weeks. The @NBN tech was a no show for the first appointment. Just had an SMS scheduling another appt for tomorrow. The @Telstra faults operater in Australia just hung up on me. If I ran my med practice that way, I would be in jail.

    @Telstra The @Telstra faults person hung up on me when I insisted she contact @NBN to find out what was going on. Is the fault at my premisis, or in the area as I was previously told? As far as DMs go. I've wasted hours down that rabbit hole before, for absolutely no gain.

    @smh @zoesam93 I’m with OPTUS. My mobile phone drops out to regularly and the NBN is so slow at times I have to tether the phone to my computer. Get to work on these mayters Gladys. You are now actually working for Singapore.

    During the big storm yesterday our @NBN_Australia box blew. Not being repaired until 20th! Some people are on their 9th box. Repair times are random with some repaired today, tomorrow & next week. @stemplemanmp doing a great job trying to help us & prevent regular reoccurrences!

    Help needed from the tech nerds please! If I change my NBN provider due to a better deal, do I need a new modem? Are they "locked" similar to mobile phones? First NBN company included a modem as part of the deal. Can I use it if I change providers? TIA. 🙏

    @lesstenny @RNBreakfast I wasn’t listening this morning, but my thoughts are, rain - our infrastructure never considered there would be rain, mobile coverage infrastructure not keeping up with demand (I am 13km from Sydney GPO on a high point - hopeless with both Telstra and Optus), and NBN no doubt.

    @NBN_Australia @BelongAU any update to when the outage will be resolved in Waverley? Would be nice to have service to be able to do my job.

    @gavinadams Problem is nbn. The whole suburb is out, no matter which provider you’re with. Daily occurrence unfortunately.

  • leebailey11
    Lee Bailey (@leebailey11) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Optus my NBN has been showing a reduced service for almost 24 hours and is still listed as ‘under investigation’. Any chance someone will get the investigation done soon. With downloads of 3.14mbps and uploads at 0.44mbps I can’t do anything currently

    @MrKRudd @AnnastaciaMP You are such an armchair critic, you failed in so many ways you are not in a position to criticise others, pink batts, nbn, the boats ffs, explain your actions on these issues and I swear I will never criticise you again

    *sigh* Yay first tier ISP support, more interested that they don't know my date of birth (for obvious BS "security" reasons. Supposedly escalated to NBN, which doesn't actually seem like the correct next step, but oh well.

    🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reported

    @desmondbratcat @nbn @Starlink In a sense its not the ISPs fault, its the NBNs fault. The problem as per last week, an NBN tech came out to connect someone in my complex. Seems he unplugged me at the pit. I don't know why we still have ISPs when they just default to the NBN to come out & fix the issue.

  • Thelp725428
    T help (@Thelp725428) reported

    @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

  • SydneyCityTV
    SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported

    Here in Sydney, we're still waiting for the Nine Network's switch to a mostly MPEG4 multiplex which among other things, will bring with it 9LifeHD. No idea if they're waiting for NBN to move out before making that change or what, but I guess patience is a virtue in any case!

  • turocmit
    Courty (@turocmit) reported

    @Starlink New ticket
Subject: URGENT – Unauthorised NBN destruction by queue-jumping installer
Write: “Installer jumped other jobs, took extra cash, destroyed my NBN infrastructure instead of installing Starlink properly and connecting devices. On top plan. Demand immediate fix, replacement hardware if needed, and investigation.” Not r e a l l y what I expected 2 bill periods in. One mobile phone connected. Arguing with grok about what’s possible and what isn’t.

  • Riogallica
    🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reported

    Damn, my NBN has been down since noon today. I'm hot-spotting for now, but it's painfully slow down here. Probably the final straw ... if they don't fix it by tomorrow morning, they'll just convince me to embrace 💫 @Starlink not that I need convincing ✨

  • BrowntownBrew
    Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @Batman2242 @JMarshall63666 That's just a stupid old lie. The concept was determined by an independent cost benefit analysis which determined upgrading to fibre provided the best benefit for the cost based on existing and concept tech. Libs destroyed the plan and the economics of the #nbn

    @DavidJoffe64_2 @drkeithsiau rely on VicEmergency alerts are opt in/out only trouble now it relies on data no nbn here no wifi limited data for mobilenet just switch on to check so wrong to demand people have the latest tech just to get emergency alerts tech fails here +how many network blocked old phones

    @adamnicotera Hi Adam, we are sorry to hear about your service being impacted. When there’s an unplanned outage on the nbn network, we keep your service provider updated with all available updates as soon as we have new updates, so please continue to stay in touch with them.

  • Vision_iii
    VISION 🇦🇺 (@Vision_iii) reported

    @Ryantlon @MarkDiStef How can land prices go down? Council contributions are up, electrical infrastructure costs are up, sewer/water infrastructure costs have more than doubled, NBN costs are up. Council/state requirements are significantly more. Cities are landlocked with land become more and more scarce. Impossible for land cost to go down. As to deregulation, what deregulation? They introduced the regulated design process and you now need to get a PCA who asks for a BCA report from a BCA consultant who demands fire penetration reports, fire engineering reports, facade reports, wind reports, waterproofing reports and waste reports. And that’s just BCA. A task that was previously performed by one consultant now needs at least 8.

    ExtremelyDevious(coms open) (@ExtremelyDevio1) reported

    @TopherField the NBNs answer to not being able to lay fiber down and close gaps was to ***** fixed wireless towers for land to land satelite, for which each tower probably services on average like, 500 people, according to what the NBN told me anyway.
