    Evan (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    NBN is expensive and has stupid cost constraints on performance. So people are paying more and the network can’t operate as quickly as it could because of dumb things like CVC. Yet everyone is focus on the last mile tech

    Haha @optus tech asking if we can use our backup 4g because they deleted our NBN service. Nope. No Optus mobile coverage here. It's like a bad dream.

    I must say whilst I am very frustrated with my NBN problems with @Telstra I am very happy with the Twitter support. I am hoping the local upgrades fix the issue very soon #veryslow #frustrating

    @NBN_Australia when is Ryde 2112 going to be back online? Second outage this weekend!

    Apparently @Optus has "deleted" (their words) my NBN connection. I have to wait 48hrs for their stuff up. Considering I've started moving my 5 phone services to @Telstra I think my NBN will be next. Been with Optus for sooo many years but lately wow it's been bad.

    @NBN_Australia Just a bit of communication would be helpful to know we are even on the list of problems?

    @Stella_Cluster @DoctorKarl Once you are on NBN,(basically everything) , no power,no phone. Solution is to add back up power where the premiss connects to the network apparently.

    LOL fully forgot I had unread DMs from Telstra and NBN on here. So glad that part of my new life is fckn over. That suuuuucked so bad.

  • JohnLutge
    John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @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.

  • thomasrice_au
    Thomas Rice (@thomasrice_au) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    Very few errors, and they were mainly names or technical terms. For example, "The R proof for off net MBN services" should be "The ARPU for off-net NBN services" "Mark Marie Derrmann" should be "Mart-Marie Derman" Seems plausible to easily transcribe everything with this.

    A circuit breaker got tripped that killed everything but the lights and I’ve never been happier to have my critical network infrastructure running on the light circuit, no fighting with NBN handshaking for this guy at 11:30pm 😌

  • JPMasters
    JPMasters (He/Him/They/Them) (@JPMasters) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @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.

  • johncskinner1
    John Skinner (@johncskinner1) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    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!

  • JohnLutge
    John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    The @NBN tech came. The carrier signal strength is - 15dB. Max is - 10dB. So it's too weak to work. But it's raining, and their test equipment isn't waterproof. So they couldn't check the connection box at the side of the house. So, day off work for zip. @Telstra

    @ssharwood @NBN_Australia I would never expect to see anyone look at Telstra's horrible service system, and then set out to copy it but intentionally make it worse. But here we are. Related note: still no NBN connection in my new place...

    @JJKALE2 I love PK .. reflects how tired we are of comparing our **** show with another country This cruddy government NEVER compares us to OECD when languishing at the bottom social reforms, pensions NBN etc

    @Aussie_BB hey folks, just got an email about an NBN outage, but it went to my old email address. Can you check to see if there’s somewhere in your records that may not be updated? Invoices & other emails have gone to the right spot, just this outage notice is misdirected.

    When it wasn't broken, whilst in Labors hands.....now it's a FD, so, overpriced & just a patchwork quilt.......how much has LNP actually spent, include the $2bn loan NBN did by themself 😡😡😠😠

    @diss_presso @robb_j_m The nbn was only announced in 2011/12. So if it went to crap in 2000, that's the market that let it go to crap.

    @Krow23_ @NBN_Australia why the code is not working

    To my Aussie friends: Wasn't the idea behind the NBN (National Broadband Network) to ensure that everyone had inexpensive access to the internet? What happened? How much are you paying for internet access?

  • paullyj57
    paullyj57 FMD **** AUST (@paullyj57) reported

    @JH_Otway_Ranges @craigkellyAFEE we never needed an nbn . mobile phone for data was faster and cheaper. Now starlink is faster and cheaper again NBN is a 200 billion dollar disaster

  • anthony45052793
    anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported

    @robb_j_m abandoned nbn fixed wireless service, so many outages, so many years paying for speeds they could not deliver, local shop could not run eftpos over it, even on a business plan. i'm on starlink now, stable, fast and only $9 a month more than nbn for 4 times the speed.

  • mrr78504
    MR Reilly (@mrr78504) reported

    @econoadabsurdam @LeeRespecter The NBN might plausibly have increased productivity if it had retained its original scope (A FTTN fibre backbone network independent of Telstra that would allow telecommunication companies to compete on an equal footing). Instead it got rolled out first in Tasmania.

  • CarmelFay
    Carmel Fay (@CarmelFay) reported

    @robb_j_m Starlink. Prior to that we had a satellite connection through the NBN in our rural area which was a bit of a nightmare. They brought in this 'fair use' clause that if you went over a certain amount, you'd get suspended, but it was never terribly clear if you were approaching your limit. It was a rolling limit. I don't know if they still have it. Probably. And then our plan, the larger one, was removed and we were put on some weird sort of plan that gave us no real allocation where we couldn't even watch youtube. Really shabby way to treat customers. Starlink is reliable, has good speeds and no limits on usage, and we never get throttled. It's about $135 a month, but we're happy to pay. We'd never go back to NBN.

  • eevblog
    Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported

    @asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.

  • imdavo17
    Dave (@imdavo17) reported

    @TFyrd49376 @TobiSkovron Labor introduced the NDIS, LNP messed with it. Like a long list of things introduced by Labor, the LNP screws with it and we are forced to endure the **** show that follows. NBN? LNP screwed it so hard it cost 3x as much for inferior infrastructure.

    @robb_j_m Never used NBN. Use a much cheaper wifi plan.
