  @Thejimpenman Ask your serfs to shout you full fibre NBN Jimmy. That was under the Deposed LNP Crime org that ran up $850 additional debt, without creating one cent of legacy assett, whilst claiming to have paid down the existing $150 billion debt that took all prior govts 112 yrs to reach.

  @trsrpc For context. Australia's NBN is still be rolled out years after it was sold as the best thing ever... Yet many have incredibly unstable internet or none at all.

  @ImVicLoLagain @LCHF_Matt @pikkkkaro He is saying that wifi is not internet, that's it. I have many services at home on my local network that I use my wifi to connect to that don't use the internet (NBN) at all. Fwiw I also have 2000/500 NBN with a capable router, 10gig switch and cat6a runs that support it. My internet is great by any standards, the only thing Australia does ****** (now - it wasn't this good a couple of years ago) is that we don't have symmetrical links for consumers. The whole point though is that the idiot OP thinks that "wifi" means internet, and it doesn't.

  @boganintel @AlboMP It's infuriating the situation this govt has got us into by not having any backbone WSE There has been no nation building since the NBN and Abbott wrecked that So many plans that could be implemented but nothing except a moronic sub deal that sucks $B out of the economy for what?

  @VodafoneAU And, of course, @VodafoneAU is claiming they have to wait 24hrs for my "service number" to change before I can get the FTTP I requested 2 weeks ago. @NBN_Australia says it hasn't received a modification request. Today or 2 weeks ago. Time for the ombudsman.

  @PaulineHansonOz @GreensAU2 Pauline, you should have seen the corruption when NBN kicked off. I worked in scope, design , construction, activations and repairs. I’m bound by NDAs but **** that. I’m sending you a letter that will upset a lot of people. I’m tired of playing nice.

  Just spent 1.5hrs with my ISP figuring out why my NBN had died. He (from Indian, a nice chap) put me through hoops & then said that the NBN box is faulty but can't get a tech out till next Tue. Then a light bulb moment hit me & said, what if I look at the metre box - sure enough, something had tripped the circuit in the room the NBN is hooked up to. I just didn't need the added stress. Then he had the hide to ask me to 'rate his service'. Yeah - nah!

  ACMA is NOT currently running a spectrum auction for LEO satellite broadband. In December 2025, ACMA decided against auctioning a large amount of expiring spectrum. Instead, they chose to renew the licenses held by mobile operators and NBN. Their reasoning was that auctions could disrupt existing services and slow down new technologies like low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Amazon's Project Kuiper is coming to Australia in mid-2026 through a major partnership with NBN Co. This will give Starlink its first real competition in the country, especially in regional and remote areas. This is generally good news for consumers because more competition usually means better prices and redundancy.

  @Optus we were on the phone to OPTUS for THREE HOURS to some operator in India, we just wanted to move to a faster NBN plan, and they could not migrate our old account over. NIGHTMARE and Optus are outsourcing their support to useless people in India
