    Mark Bilton (@MarkBilton) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Optus @nbn down in Turramurra. 4G working. Been out for over 1 hour. No message from @optus to customers. Work from here with international clients and rely on consistent internet access. Almost like a third world country. We have to do better. Imagine the productivity losses!

    @R_Chirgwin That would as bad as a keynote address by Malcolm Turnbull on how he fixed the NBN.

    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.

    yvonnewallbank (@yvonnewallbank) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    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!

    @NBN_Australia any updates on when service will return on Northern Beaches? Power has been restored but still no NBN?

    @NBN_Australia @belongau do you have a contact number for constant outages with no wifi service outside of your ‘working hours’? Where’s the compensation for fees with no service?

  • sharon_longmore
    🖤💛❤️ Sharon Lee Longmore (@sharon_longmore) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @alvinfoo It’s still much the same in Australia with the ridiculous fibre to the node nbn instead of to the home. Our hopelessly slow speeds & that’s if you even have access to the nbn. That’s what our idiot cheapskate LNP govt have given Australia amongst a litany of costly failures.

    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.

    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.

  • 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

    @NBN_Australia I have taken this up with Telstra on 3 occasions. It's the old Foxtel cable. It apparently needs an upgrade. Not prepared to help

    Trying to Work from Home and my internet has **** itself….again. 🙄 Been on hold to the help desk for the past 45 mins trying to sort. Anyone suggest a good nbn provider that doesn’t drop out?

  • Teelo_Bee
    💛 Teelo Bee 🐝 (@Teelo_Bee) reported

    Im also not claiming it 100% never happened. Or that I was 100% wrong. As I’ve seen no real evidence to disprove this is false either. But if it wasn’t said directly in the BBN server I don’t wanna act like it is. Even if YouTubers and NBN devs supported it to be unintentionally.

  • alicefarquson
    alicefarquharson (@alicefarquson) reported

    @oscarcsims also very confusing policy/reg space. govt essentially renationalised Telstra infrastructure in leasing a bunch of its assets to the NBN. yet Telstra still runs emergency services, payphones, landlines - not NBN. minimal economic incentives, maximal telco corporate welfare

  • MelPalling
    Mel Palling (@MelPalling) reported

    @Telstra When are you getting us a cell tower @Telstra?? This is dangerous! NBN connections are so bad we had to sign up for Opticomm, which until today, was awesome. But an all day outage and I'm working from my car.

  • jendudley
    Jen Dudley-Nicholson (@jendudley) reported

    Four days with no NBN. We were promised a fix today but the 4G network fell over from overuse instead. Thinking about investing in puppets and more paper books.

  • Borindas_Lament
    Peter Lawson (@Borindas_Lament) reported

    @NBN_Australia Another internet free night because you and Optus won't fix whatever makes our internet drop out regularly. FTTP in 2026 but we'd get better connection in South Sudan.

    Simon Biddle (@simonbiddle) reported

    @taipan168 Many corporatised, but publicly owned, entities provide great service. NBN is pretty good for example. Even Australia Post isn’t bad. Govt doesn’t have to equal bad and is much more preferable in monopoly and quasi-monopoly environments.

  • Prowerock1
    peter rowe (@Prowerock1) reported

    @Martywa467 @VoteLewko @Starlink NBN faults are dealt with via the telcos. After four cancelled appointments by NBN after Telstra said it was an NBN issue ( it was), I bought a Telstra 5G router and threw out the NBN box. I would prefer Starlink but it has a congestion charge in our area of $700.

    I saw a dog tethered to a tree on Weir Place Higgins, I thought the NBN installers put it there, to guard their gear. On the way back from Belconnen mall, I saw 2 pound workers rescuing the dog. They had a complaint and came to take it. I said it looked like the NBN guys or a
