    Good morning @Telstra Our NBN is not working and I can't find any outage information anywhere online. Was working fine last night.

    @Richard33878882 @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia It’ll be the NBN network termination device (NTD) that has failed, not his modem/router. There are a variety of these are used on FTTP, FTTC, HFC and fixed wireless installs. NBNCo operates these units inside your property, and only they can service/replace them.

    I think I spent about 3.5 hours trying to arrange an NBN service provider change. Success to be determined soon (I hope).

    We need to invest in huge nation-building projects; a national grid to support renewables, divestment in fossil-fuel base load, a renewed NBN with speed guarantees and equal access for every Australian, a high-speed rail network to connect Australia’s major centres.

    @NBN_Australia @Optus Following interaction with you via chat - I will be contacting not only my service provider, but the federal communications minister and other interested parties. Rest assured that I will be complaining about the attitude and incompetence displayed by #NBN.

  • brynen Scott Brynen (@brynen) reported

    @PeterMu22490448 @eevblog He's gone pretty deep down the rabbit hole these days. Anti-Mask, Anti-Vax, quoting alt-right media about world events, blasting Reuters when they say Odysee/Bitchute are loaded with conspiracy theories etc etc etc. It's classic libertarian, until he can't get his NBN for cheap.

  • MikeFrazer1 Mike Frazer (@MikeFrazer1) reported

    @NBN_Australia Thanks; further online research showed there was a planned outage in my area on Aug 23 12:00 - 6:00. It finished ahead of schedule.

  • Crass_Gutting Lester DSouza (@Crass_Gutting) reported

    Even when the mighty @NBN_Australia says there is an outage in my postcode, and no one in my suburb can use the internet, from any provider, @telstra says there is no problem (even when there is no internet on #Telstra #nbn) when I check their app. #Badass

    @JoeMonday42 @ChrisMinnsMP And yet there is so much evidence that privatisation doesn't work. Just look at our electricity system, the NBN, the Commonwealth Bank, our phone system, Qantas etc. The list goes on. The damage Privatisation has done is huge, you cite one example of cheques.

  • manaz_d Robert Hudson (@manaz_d) reported

    Interesting. @NBN_Australia sent me a survey to tell them about a recent fix to my service. A fix that wasn't made to a problem that didn't exist, by a tech who didn't attend premises. Tell me they're not starting to game the stats. "Look how many things we FIXED..."

  • RobertBh11 DingoBat_1 (@RobertBh11) reported

    There is only 1 thing all aussies can wish for is for @NBN_Australia to fix their ******* internet

  • Joe36225724 Joe💫 (@Joe36225724) reported

    @TurnbullMalcolm Bizarre NBN , for the poor gold standard for the rich. Mr 2 and half years prime minister.

  • TigerEwanKo Ra San Fo (@TigerEwanKo) reported

    @TPG_Telecom @Ocomeon Pendle Hill Outage is still unfinished! OMG!!! We don't deserved this. You and NBN suck!!!

  • Samira_Sarraf Samira Sarraf (@Samira_Sarraf) reported

    Surprise! My #NBN is down again! Is like this every other week now. At least they are consistent.
