    @troyhunt @home_assistant @Aussie_BB You'll probably need to turn on smart queues on your UDM Pro (I think I recall you have one of these). Otherwise the NBN policer will throw a fit on uploads and you'll get horrible upload results.

    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 😌

    @NBN_Australia Hi there. Can you advise how I connect free to air tv via nbn FTTP? I've been told that my property falls under the NBNCo network and as such free to air television needs to be connected via NBN fibre. Please advise

    @Optus Hi Optus I have sent you a DM about my NBN not working. Could someone please look at this tomorrow and advise Thanks

    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.

    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.

    @edwardatport Were very safe here. While NBN doesnt work. Thats why HMAS Adelaide is still broken down. Can't read their smoke signals.

    @optus my mum's NBN FTTC white NBN box will not get any data thru the line. Have been trying all day to get thru to technical support and that line has been "closed" all day and message is hasn't been helpful. She also has a falls monitor which should be connected but it's not

    @iinet @NBN_Australia down in Maroubra...

    The technician came and my internet is still broken. There is an open fault ticket for the @nbn network team to fix the network tap in the pit at the front of the house. According to @Telstra, there is no ETA on the fix.

    @JmarrMarr @bkbaguley @SatPaper I live in Sydney my NBN goes down every time we have strong winds. Plus at night streaming doesn't work.

    @PipThomas @PressStartAU Similar thoughts from me, I’m impressed with how well it does run on my 10 MB/sec FTTC NBN connection and given it is a beta service I can definitely agree the input lag is something that will need to be accepted for now until it is tweaked a bit to run better on the NBN

    From @Optus : NBN will be down all day Thursday. You'll be cool hotspotting from your phone right? #remotelearning

    @AGLEnergy hi there. I recently ordered an internet package along with our gas. The delivery only included the @geteero device and not the required NBN black box for HFC connection. Can you help resolve for us?

    @NBN_Australia @ericsson @MWCHub What about homes with constant NBN outages? I’d look forward to a service that works.

    @Telstra if my NBN is down why isn’t my 4g backup working? Have re booted, blue lights on??

    Extremely unacceptable practice by @VodafoneAU cancelled my NBN when I specially asked them not to, not once but 3 times #fail #switchtotelstra .. customer service is helpless

    My mum broke her femur on Wed, and my brother is a non board member of the NBN. These 2 pieces of info are important because today dad -annoyed the NBN is down at home- said to my brother, “it’s a good thing our healthcare system works better than our internet” and wow savage 💀

  • RaymondKeown3
    Raymond McKeown (@RaymondKeown3) reported

    @Rexdinasaur I worked with Conroy on the original NBN & built the first site in Kiama, it was a disaster, it cost Transgrid $10 million, not one of NBN management had ever built a network, they had no idea, never understood the unique properties of Fibre cable, Conroy would simply not listen, one deal he did cost $800 million as a stuff up, I walked away & said to my people, everyone of our competitors will chase this, lets chase the business they ignore.

  • HarrarLongberry
    Harrar Longberry (@HarrarLongberry) reported

    @BeauGiles You typically use the mobile network as the backup to a wired connection. E.g. at our business the NBN was so unreliable we installed a 4g failover modem, but you need to know they exist & how to configure them. Most people don't have that level of IT know-how.

  • DissentingS
    DissentingSkeptic (@DissentingS) reported

    @VoteLewko @Starlink Speed is latency. No satellite connection is "high speed" sick of the disinformation. Starlink is 20ms-40ms+ latency like mobile garbage is. NBN is a whopping 600ms latency. They need to keep this junk away from fibre areas where I get 2ms latency and have had since 2022.

  • MarkA5859
    Mark A (@MarkA5859) reported

    I really am angry the LNP rooted the NBN. Now I have to seriously consider Musk’s Starlink for my Internet especially since both Telstra & Optus have & are having issues.

  • ianclarkeAU
    Ian Clarke (@ianclarkeAU) reported

    @DoodyDarren @CovfefeDnUnder Can NBN do this? No, and it never will. Of course wired networks, such as aarpnet are way better for some applications. The fallacy is that NBN is about technology, when it’s about a cross subsidy.

  • PeterLeversha
    Peter Leversha (@PeterLeversha) reported

    @merchant_s35416 @Bender_Aus Privatising telecom was the right thing to do. And selling off Telstra was an even better idea. Both were drains in the economy. Trying to get telecom to fix anything used to be a pain in the butt. Look at NBN, over priced garbage. There's nothing wrong with a user pays system. Why should people in Horsham pay for a road they don't use in Melbourne?

  • DK_Flipper
    Pauly D (@DK_Flipper) reported

    @KatyKray73 NBN, steered us through the GFC trouble free, dismantled Howards work choices rubbish, introduced paid parental leave, biggest increase to pensions since federation, funded the digital education revolution, withdrew all Australian troops from the Iraq war....

    @AngusTaylorMP **** no you guys are just another flavour of Labor. I haven't forgiven you for ******* the NBN or introducing the ekaren position the labour is now using to force censorship and probably digital ID

  • z51588

    @MrBrokenEyes Yes!!! I was just searching for exactly the same thing as my nbn has conveniently gone down right after the alert.

  • Mezmarr
    Mezmarr (@Mezmarr) reported

    @NBN_Australia Working hard! More like hardly working! It's been nearly 24hrs since it went down with no updates, no notice of what's actually wrong. NBN being government funded as well, is so ****!
