    Ever since I switched to @DodoAustralia NBN watching @Twitch has been really laggy with lots of buffering, even when not doing anything else online. Didn’t have that issue when we were with @superloopau

    @ClaudeMandy @TimLonghurst @NBN_Australia we don’t need to go far to see a sensible separation of infrastructure and service provision - just across the ditch in NZ they’ve managed to preserve competition whilst investing in their country’s future

    @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.

    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!

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

  • fridley
    James Fridley (@fridley) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Telstra still as useless as ever. Been trying to connect to the NBN since 2019 in a Sydney CBD office, and they cancel any new NBN order without even bothering to contact us.... O_o

    Morning @2GB, you’ve got app issues again. It keeps cutting out and and one stage we heard Ben ask the Astro guy the same question four times. Now nothing. Our download is 108Mbs and upload 32Mbs, ping 13Ms. Our NBN’s working fine.

    @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

    Wow, NBN guys went to the pit to fix a non-existent problem and we have been down since! Amazing work from the most inefficient company I know. Old saying: if it ain't broke don't fix it!

  • _marty_k
    Marty K (@_marty_k) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Aussie_BB I’ll have to call in later, but you definitely have the updated email as I’ve been getting invoices there for many months now. Is there a separate system that sends out the NBN outage notification that doesn’t just use current email on file?

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

    @NBN_Australia The main problem is some providers take days to “diagnose” the issue when it’s v. clear what the problem is. This wastes time & resources. In areas of high failure @NBN_Australia should have some technicians based in the community to maintain this infrastructure! @stemplemanmp

    @ArtistAffame If you don't have a wifi router then you will. The 5G is the mobile network, you connect to the internet via that or via NBN. Usually then it connects to a wifi router.

    Our @optus NBN internet/Phone service problem has been fixed. My mother can watch online movies and music videos on youtube. The internet is her only source of entertainment

  • BrowntownBrew
    Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @pigways @Batman2242 What? Fttn was cheap to install but severely limits revenue and has a massive maintenance costs which means it can never make a return on the investment. It's why #nbn convinced LNP to provide additional funding and begin the free upgrade to fttp.

  • jshster
    FML (@jshster) reported

    @PieNorthern I haven't had a problem in ages... since we upgraded to NBN high speed. Hate to say it but it might be a tech problem. Although I do get it!

  • LambDownUnder
    LambDownUnder (@LambDownUnder) reported

    @TheLucidyn @Batman2242 Kind of proving the point. Gov can't perceive anything. Making large Capex decisions that are supposed to be generational. It was anti competitive from the outset. Private companies (TPG notable) were prohibited from building out their own network. Regardless, I can have starlink internet now for about the same monthly price as the NBN except i didn't have to front the Capex (and debt) for it. NBN very likely has a negative ROI. I wish we judged policies by outcomes not intentions.

    @fathamburger @balajis @anwaribrahim Lol, ya NBN is ****, I moved off to Starlink myselves, agree on most counts actually. But why keep Aussies out? allow those who want to also move in. The point of SEZ would be that it would be a siloed regime that is more tax friendly.

  • TheLucidyn
    Lucidyn (@TheLucidyn) reported

    @UrbanHubbard @Batman2242 Turnbull botched it. The original fibre and fixed wireless sections of the NBN were worth doing. Switching to Fibre to the Curb was an expensive mistake that has already needed replacing in most areas. This isn’t a left/right issue, and that’s not my point anyway. You missed the core of my post. The NBN was and still is a good idea. It just needed far better design than the “back of a napkin” version under Rudd, and Turnbull shouldn’t have messed around with the plan the way he did. I worked with people who installed the cabnets during the transition and saw exactly what changed inside them. With over 20 years in the IT industry, I know what I’m looking at. My actual point is that comparing the NBN to Starlink is unfair. It’s like comparing the entire fixed telephone network to mobile phones in the 1990s. Mobiles were revolutionary, but they didn’t replace the fixed network they complemented it.

  • 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.

  • purana

    @AussieWirraway 3+ month 3 different RSP's and still can't get NBN co to connect a FTTN service.

  • ianattheherald
    IAN KIRKWOOD (@ianattheherald) reported

    @strangerous10 @AlanJMitchell_ Yep. And Canberra complaining about the privatised Telstra is like me selling someone a second-hand car and hitching about what the new owners did with it. I’m serious. And we should surely have enough computing power to know now how the sharemarket dabbling went for those “battlers” who bought Telstra shares as encouraged by the privatising PM John Howard. After taxes, accountants, inflation, fees & Telstra’s bad (or deliberate?) policy choices around the National Broadband Network, my guess would be: not that well. And speaking of the NBN, remember the smart nodding and talking heads saying we wouldn’t need this much capacity etc. Be a few archived interviews from that era that will not have aged well. The same equation repeats throughout history. 1. “This is ridiculous” 2. “It has some uses” 3. “We’ve always supported this! What are you talking about.” Progress moves by the death of generations, as much as by technology. My parents hated ATMs. Didn’t trust them. I don’t trust the thing I’m writing this on. Children now will one day look back on such antiquated things as hand-held devices and “wonder how people used something so clumsy”. Etc
