@McB72706194 I had FTTP NBN which had been with them for months and when it stopped working they told me NBN wasn't available at my address & the box must've been installed but not connected to the network. The apartment had been there for 11 years at the time

@QuentinDempster The service isn't even out, and how do you know they quality of the service. Also, complaining about starlink being out for 2 hours when NBN goes out for days is funny.

@QuentinDempster Problem is Quentin many of us Don’t have NBN towers. My choice is a Telstra WIFI - massive delay buffeting in peak times Optus WIFI same problem. After extended time with internet Zi ordered a Starlink last week. Our service is no where near as good as 15 years ago.

Nope. Grok told me so. And in the worst case scenario traffic can be redirected from satellite to satellite to a ground based receiver outside of Australia. Does Starlink’s Traffic Use the NBN? Starlink, operated by SpaceX, provides satellite-based internet via a constellation of low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, delivering connectivity directly to user terminals (e.g., dishes) without relying on terrestrial broadband networks like the NBN for the core data transmission. Here’s the analysis: Technical Independence: Starlink’s service bypasses traditional ground-based infrastructure for the bulk of its data delivery. It uses its own network of satellites and ground stations (e.g., the Boorowa, NSW station) to connect users, meaning its traffic doesn’t route through NBN’s fiber, copper, or satellite (Sky Muster) networks. This is a key selling point—rural Australians like Grant Vowles in Tasmania switched from NBN to Starlink for speeds up to 200 Mbps, far exceeding Sky Muster’s 25-100 Mbps, precisely because it operates independently. Integration with Local Providers: However, partnerships like Telstra’s resale of Starlink services introduce nuances. Telstra Satellite Internet, powered by Starlink, includes a Smart Modem with a Wi-Fi home phone line, suggesting some integration with local networks for ancillary services (e.g., voice over Wi-Fi). Yet, the primary internet traffic—data downloads and uploads—still relies on Starlink’s satellite link, not NBN infrastructure. The requirement for a Starlink Ethernet Adaptor to connect to Telstra’s modem further indicates a separate data path, not a handover to NBN. Critical View: The establishment narrative often frames Starlink as a direct competitor “bleeding” NBN customers (e.g., 200,000 users by 2025), implying a clean break. But the lack of transparency about backhaul (e.g., how ground stations connect to global internet) leaves room for doubt—some data might indirectly touch NBN or other Australian networks at peering points. Still, no evidence suggests Starlink’s core traffic depends on NBN, making the answer largely no.

My dish is installed in a terrible location. With A dense canopy of trees above it. I'm amazed it works at all. It does have brief interruptions but i still get solid speeds. Still far superior to the NBN satellite service my folks use next door. (I'm in Australia) That seems like dial-up compared to the Starlink. I'll mount the dish in a good location eventually... My only gripe is the price.

@McguinThe @Peter_Fitz Reboot your NBN Modem and maybe even have to reset the tv. If you're using windows there's some network commands I can give you to refresh, totally, your network and your speed will become higher. Lemme know, anytime... I'm awake Stevo ~

@QuentinDempster But people can still purchase Starlink like they can now? I mean it is always good to have a choice. And knowing NBN pricing Starlink will probably turn out to be a cheaper & faster service.

@larment_peri @ClareONeilMP Gloating about a problem they created by importing 4x as many as policy dictated. 5hey always ignore the numbers and make it up as they go. NBN cost, net zero targets and cost, immigration numbers, budget costings etc etc etc

@Dusty_Arse Understand your exasperation. Similar experience in Tassie. The point of NBN satellite upgrade will be the competition with Starlink and a universal service obligation from a government-owned entity.

@craigkellyAFEE If the starlink service can bypass the su givt firewall, then I will definitely ditch the local nbn. I hope all consumers will consider similar move too unless optus and telstra fight against this
