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

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

  • wifidownunder Aaron Scott (@wifidownunder) reported 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.

  • NigelBill Nigel Mullen (@NigelBill) reported 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.

  • MansfieldOwen Owen Mansfield (@MansfieldOwen) reported 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.

  • NigelBill Nigel Mullen (@NigelBill) reported 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.

  • novahollandia Justin Holland (@novahollandia) reported 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.

  • phonakins 💜 phonakins 💄 Happy Liptember! 💋 (@phonakins) reported 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)

  • njubi_eric Njubi Ng’ang’a 🇰🇪 (@njubi_eric) reported 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

  • pretzelssign hall 🇹🇼 (@pretzelssign) reported 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

  • RoyanWg Billy back in the black n broke HALLELUJAH (@RoyanWg) reported 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

  • DrCraigGedye Craig Gedye (@DrCraigGedye) reported 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.

  • gjblue Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported 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.

  • fat_lenny Lenny (@fat_lenny) reported 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.

  • gregorymckenna Greg McKenna (@gregorymckenna) reported 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 👍

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

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

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

    @adamajacoby NBN intentionality shit to benefit Murdoch

  • adlrope Adam Rope (reality is stranger than fiction) (@adlrope) reported 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

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

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

  • jack_webbbb Jack Webber (@jack_webbbb) reported 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

  • novahollandia Justin Holland (@novahollandia) reported 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.

  • killermattk Matt K ⚓ (@killermattk) reported

    When the #SCAM caller purporting to be from @NBN_Australia says my internet's comprimised, i say SHUT THE NBN DOWN THEN, STEVE! IT'S A MATTER OF NATIONAL SECURITY! He asks me "Are you out of your ******* mind?" I don't think he was representing @NBN_Australia - just a guess.

  • DarrylMason Darryl Mason (@DarrylMason) reported

    @NBN_Australia @carolduncan The alleged "service provider" has been aware of this default switch-off for years, from 1000s of customers, and nothing has changed. It will happen again and all requests for a fix will be ignored. We've been told the problem can't be fixed without replacing the copper wire.

  • SusanLa69642683 Susan (@SusanLa69642683) reported

    @Nightwatch1988 @lesstenny I had the same problem. Telstra NBN fixed it.

  • TonesMaroon TonesMaroon (@TonesMaroon) reported

    @a30aew @carolduncan 300m from the node at home and had 2 years of bull💩 battles with Telstra and NBN Co over whose fault the crap internet was. They'd blame me then one day one of them checked the pit and found dodgy wiring. I was 1 of 30 houses affected

  • moonaimfv yjm moongod (@moonaimfv) reported

    bro why ******** is nbn in malvern/south yarra/toorak ways not working, data in toorak is so **** for such a rich suburb so it takes ages for me to do anything

  • passtit Derek White (@passtit) reported

    @NBN_Australia When can we expect something better than the ~1km of copper via several junction boxes to our home in Mittagong NSW? There is no way we can achieve anything close to 25down/5up on a consistent basis with this legacy crapola, let alone real world 2022 speeds. Help!

  • DavidKehoe10 David Kehoe (@DavidKehoe10) reported

    @RuncibleH @clarkes ADSL was mostly faster and definitely more reliable for me than the NBN. It never slowed down or dropped out as continuously as the NBN does.

  • DarkMatterzine Dark Matter Zine: 😷 💉 💉 💉 💉 (@DarkMatterzine) reported

    @kangaroos991 @JudiSparre True. In the 80s there was mythology around saving money but Telstra’s sale = neglected infrastructure, poor NBN substitute, profits to shareholders. Prior to that, the profits went to govt. Only one example of a poor choice.

  • Dogsbreakfast75 A Dogs Breakfast (@Dogsbreakfast75) reported

    @JEChalmers @AlboMP @AustralianLabor Kill off the tax cuts for the rich and fund education/tafe/university/apprenticeships properly. Oh, and also fix the NBN that the LNP destroyed- FTTN so online businesses can compete.

  • Aceometric Ace (@Aceometric) reported

    Does anyone know where ******** I can find the upload speeds for @iiNet #nbn plans? I’m pretty sure it’s not meant to be less than 1mbps… but I don’t know what it’s meant to be coz it’s not listed anywhere on the page
