Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Port Macquarie and nearby locations:
-
Geoff Thompson (@geoff__thompson) reported from North Shore, New South Wales@TheSaltminer @NickRossTech @abcnews @netflix @abc730 The story is specifically about streaming TV killing the NBN’s dream of fast broadband on fixed wireless. Whether it was a stupid dream to begin with is another issue. There’s a strong argument that FW has been poorly deployed - but it was in the mix for all ministers.

Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South WalesI have to say @Telstra I smell bollocks when your Conplaints Department confirm the planned outage has been resolved and organise a technician to investigate your NBN service but 4 hours later another Department calls you to advise your wifi functionality will be fixed by 5pm
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@Telstra I feel like I am in a Monty Python skit ... after an ongoing TEN DAY NBN outage until 9pm last night, you assured me the outage was fixed ... between 11am & 4pm today there was yet another outage WITHOUT ANY PRIOR NOTIFICATION BY YOU OF SUCH OUTAGE
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@Telstra Is your customer service now an optional extra customers need to pay for???? I have YET ANOTHER NBN line fault approximately 12 months after the last unfortunate experience ... please check your messages from me with screenshots #epicfailtelstra
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@Telstra @NBN_Australia Thankgod for a switched on technician ... my wifi issue was the result of my modem disabling the wifi functionality during a firmware upgrade and had you bothered to run a diagnostic @Telstra could have confirmed this 12 days ago - 👏 ineptitude #bravo
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@Telstra I’m having trouble with the fact I have an nbn internet contract & @Telstra has been in breach of contract for 15 days ... for 8 days I had no wifi, nbn or landline ... for 7 days I’ve had 4G backup ... NOT GOOD ENOUGH
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South WalesWell neither @Telstra or @NBN_Australia have managed to resolve my issue between them ... 30 days & counting ... shame on you both ... I have an online University exam worth 40% of my mark to do this weekend ... back to Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South WalesI have to say @Telstra I smell bollocks when your Complaints Department confirm the planned outage has been resolved and organise a technician to investigate your NBN service but 4 hours later another Department calls you to advise your wifi functionality will be fixed by 5pm 🤔
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@ACurrentAffair9 If it’s a slow news day and you fancy running an expose on how badly @Telstra treats customers of 15 years with their NBN service please reach out ... I have screen shots & more
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@Telstra I fail to see the humour in a now 28 hour old NBN outage that has meant I have spent the best part of 2.5 hours in the Telstra app chatting with 3 separate customer service reps asking the exact same questions and still no further along with answers
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@Telstra How on earth do you suggest I resolve my problem when your app won’t run a diagnostic or tells me the NBN diagnostic failed and you are prohibiting telephone call contact due to COVID 19 ... how do I study or work??????????
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@NBN_Australia Even though @Telstra confirmed at 11am yesterday the outage was resolved and a technician needed to be organised ... at 3pm yesterday I get a call from an entirely different department of Telstra saying my wifi service would resume at 5pm yesterday = bollocks
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@NBN_Australia I’ve been checking @Telstra ‘s NBN outage website for the past 10 days and each day it says no outage in my area despite Telstra assuring me of a planned outage between 21/2-5/3 which they failed to notify me about prior
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@NBN_Australia @NBN_Australia Hi Matt ... thanks for your response ... very much appreciated & so much more than I have received from @Telstra ... no outage after using your link ... 12 days of no NBN, landline & wifi ... I’ve spent 20+ hours on the phone with Telstra
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South Wales@NBN_Australia @NBN_Australia ... Telstra cancelled my technician appointment claiming issue was resolved ... it wasn’t ... earliest a technician can attend is Friday 16/4/21 ... NOT GOOD ENOUGH
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South WalesThe earliest @Telstra allege they can get a technician to inspect my NBN fault is 17 days after the issue began ... @rayhadley2gb - interested in hearing more about how this ISP has treated a customer of 15 years ? No NBN, wifi, landline for 17 days
-
Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, New South WalesNOW @Telstra ... between 4pm & 6pm I had wifi connection ... between 6-7.30pm my Telstra smart modem has restarted on 5 occasions ... since 7.30pm I’ve had a blue light on my smart modem & NO NBN ... MY ISSUE HAS BLATANTLY NOT BEEN RESOLVED!!! POOR FORM

ronnymouse (@ronnymouse7) reported@eevblog this is why we have a fixed wireless connection as a backup, the NBN backbones they're connected to rarely go down
-
Mary Spy (@mez_spy) reported@AjaxXanthe See if you can get extra mobile data from your provider. We had an NBN issue a couple of years ago & not sorted for more than 2 weeks. We could get additional data on mobiles or a dongle for home

Michael Brennan (@Michael44814776) reportedNo, nbn has cost far more due to LNP. LNP original costing: Promised $29.5B (2013 election); revised to $41B in Strategic Review. The evidence is that in the caucus , as detailed in Turnbull’s book, Abbott simply wanted LNP to be contrarian about nbn. They stopped the fibre rollout and replaced it with copper. At the time, LNPs message that nbn would go over budget was favoured due to a complicit media. For instance, when the ABC science editor did a comprehensive comparison between labour’s FTTP and LNP copper, the report was spiked until after the election, due to ABC management wanting to appease LNP. Then, under LNP, ABC did not have a science editor. Consider the subsequent dearth of reporting by ABC in following years about the biggest infrastructure project ever. Consider that Turnbull appointed a former business associate to be chair of ABC whilst a Director of NBN snd whilst a ceo of a supplier to NBN with a $100m contract for design and fabrication of copper based distribution boxes, which have subsequently been removed. So there is no surprise that the public were force fed the line that all that glitters is copper. The reality set in when the deterioration of the copper network became apparent to punters. The cost of NBN is now at approx $50B with $54B to 2030 to due to the replacement costs of LNPs copper systems with fibre. So Abbott and Turnbull cost the country many billions not to mention the years of misery and lost productivity by prolonging the copper network.

James Ladd (@jamesladd) reported@iinet is there an internet outage in Victoria (nbn)?

Craig Gardiner (@cwgardiner) reported@telstra reception in Vermont South (near Sewart close) is crap. I logged a call (INC 40508228) as a @Telstra Gold member 6 months ago, today they told me it was fixed. It ain’t fixed. Still no 4G/5G and I’m paying for 4G backup on my NBN modem. This is beyond a joke.

Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported@impalethevlad It doesn't work like that when the entire business park NBN is down and many thousands of people are suddenly trying to find cellular workarounds.

Con! (@c0n_AU) reported@ItsMissShorty @robb_j_m When people refer to NBN/Internet as “WiFi” they’re absolutely Luddites or just too lazy to know what they have/need and don’t deserve any help from those who might.
