• Owen Mansfield (@MansfieldOwen) reported 2 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @Optus Worst service I’ve ever recommend. Have been trying to connect NBN. No one in your call centres seem to know what to do.

• hall 🇹🇼 (@pretzelssign) reported 2 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @NBN_Australia that’d be great if every day from 2pm-11pm the wifi wasn’t so unbearably slow that I can’t even load a webpage. I went to South Korea and it really gave a perspective as to how horrifyingly slow NBN is

• Jack Webber (@jack_webbbb) reported 2 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @NBN_Australia how long does it take for an outage to be fixed it’s already been ages and It’s my day off aswell

• 💜 phonakins 💄 Happy Liptember! 💋 (@phonakins) reported 2 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @NBN_Australia @duolingo Keeps dropping out. I'm on my phone atm to reply to this. Been doing it the last couple of days. No good for browsing or doing Duolingo let alone streaming (either up or down)

• Craig Wilson 🚴 ⛵ ⛷️ (@mediahunter) reported 3 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @ScottRhodie @NBN_Australia I've been getting dropouts when it rains. Can you help?

• josund (@josundq) reported 3 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @factanonverba69 but the second biggest failure was Malcolm’s fibre to the node NBN network

• Justin Holland (@novahollandia) reported 4 years ago from Maitland, State of New South Wales

  @Telstra spoke to a technician. Apparently a problem with the line. #NBN involved ( God help us). Appointment now booked for (Drum roll....) 14th April Seriously? I suppose the NBN technical support can't be faster than the #NBN.

• Justin Holland (@novahollandia) reported 4 years ago from Maitland, State of New South Wales

  @Telstra hi, my wife's NBN has been down for 2 days. She's rung several times only for her call to ring out. Pretty hard to run a business with no NBN.

• Tony Brown (@tony4newcastle) reported 4 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  My Telstra nbn broadband network has been down all day from an alleged cyber attack

• Njubi Ng’ang’a 🇰🇪 (@njubi_eric) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  I moved into #Telstra 7 days ago and I promise you their nbn is the worst. Speeds of 7 mbps is just unheard of. Piece of advice to anyone planning to join Telstra DON’T

• Greg McKenna (@gregorymckenna) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @hef_mark I’ve been running off my phone with no problems while kids doing online classes on NBN - no issues at all 👍

• Billy back in the black n broke HALLELUJAH (@RoyanWg) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @LesStonehouse Nothing about the shit NBN that the LNP/IPA Government has foisted upon the public instead of the world leading broadband it was supposed to be we are left with the inadequate bastardized system that Malcolm Turnbull/Abbott gave us

• Lenny (@fat_lenny) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @DuhigLisa @NBN_Australia @Telstra I actually love having the business run from hone. Been doing it for years and have a dedicated office. Constant issues with the NBN though really hurt and you are powerless to do anything. Into day 2 of no work, about to head to Telstra.

• Adam Rope (reality is stranger than fiction) (@adlrope) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @Qldaah @Telstra David, if have nbn connection then Telstra only service provider. nbn co own & maintain network. Telstra technical support can investigate but if underlying issue is network, nbn co responsible. If nbn co state 'no fault found', then service provider no power coerce nbn action

• Lazy Travel Days ✈️ ⛴ 🚘 (@lazytraveldays) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @adamajacoby NBN intentionality shit to benefit Murdoch

• Nigel Mullen (@NigelBill) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @exetel @chuggins9000 @NBN_Australia Thanks Rehan, but it is not an Exetel problem, all my neighbours have the same problem. NBN Co decided not to deluver high speed internet infrastucture to our Adamstown Heights area.

• Nigel Mullen (@NigelBill) reported 5 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @NBN_Australia It is not a fault. It is a NBN design issue. If a house is 1.2km in cable length from a Node, can they expect 80mb or more in connection speed. Very simple yes/no answer is all that is required.

• Craig Gedye (@DrCraigGedye) reported 6 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @Internode once again our @NBN_Australia connection is out because it has rained. Please fix the physical connection to our house. It is NOT a problem in our house. It is a problem with your ancient corroded copper network. Please repair immediately.

• Aaron Scott (@wifidownunder) reported 6 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  Another 12hr outage from @telstra NBN. This is ridiculous. Maybe at some point I’ll have internet again.

• Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported 6 years ago from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

  @JaneCaro @Telstra The whole nbn is a joke, mate who works for them told me ours will never be any good because the copper goes thru a flooded pit at the end of our street.

NBN Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

• Fleta P (@FletaP3) reported 3 hours ago

  @mark16pg NBN , National Energy Guarantee, Port of Darwin, large corporate tax cuts, low wage growth, poor fiscal management, Climate change - emissions trading scheme, eKaren .... where do we stop?

• Laid Back (@Laidback_au) reported 9 hours ago

  @craigkellyAFEE @Starlink running a VPN might bypass the Government reach as the stream wont be coming through the NBN network Somebody with further technical expertise may be able to help verify

• steve (@steve0445715103) reported 11 hours ago

  @TheOnlyDSC Well, she's making poor life choices if she's involved with a black man. As far as the black woman assaulting her, NBN.

• Dr Nawaf Dandachi (@NawafDandachi) reported yesterday

  They wouldn't issue me a refund, but they would if I threatened I'll complain to the ombudsman. I guess my monthly NBN service fee is cheaper to them than a fine for violate consumer laws.

• stuart (@stuart123456J) reported yesterday

  @ProfMickWilson I hear you. Michael Crichton coined the term Gell-Mann amnesia to describe it. In telco around the creation of the nbn, almost everything in the press was wrong, unfactual and misdiagnosed the problems.

• dexq (@qexdval) reported yesterday

  @rhyzii_ @AbstaAU Will say nbn isn’t bad but we are still so far behind other countries in terms of having top internet for cheaper, I’m paying 115 for 250mbs and 30 upload which we should be getting around 1gb up for that

• Peter Leversha (@PeterLeversha) reported yesterday

  My ISP just put the price of my NBN up. They're blaming wholesale NBN pricing. The under 16 ban isn't going to matter a **** to those who can't afford to use the internet anymore.

• Kazie (@Kazie151) reported yesterday

  Do you wanna hear them whinge about the fact I don't have the NBN coz it makes hacking slower for them while also hear them go on & on about how I only deserve poverty & don't deserve more than a ****** 4G network/ADSL2+ equiv. Coz both. It's always both sides. All justification.

• Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported 2 days ago

  @MrsS2023 And the only way NBN can become profitable is to get rid of all the copper in the network and onto fibre. Fttp is the only profitable part of the network that is subsidising the other parts as well as the free upgrades.

• X Stock Investing💲 🇦🇺 (@jk_stock) reported 2 days ago

  2 growth opportunities for $TLS. 5G fixed wireless is increasingly being positioned as a substitute for home NBN connections. Telstra’s intercity fibre network - linking data centres across Australia - presents a source of additional upside not yet reflected in earnings forecasts
