NBN Outage in Moolap, Greater Geelong, State of Victoria

Summary: we almost-delivered an obsolete network not fit for purpose and now we're struggling with finding a way to make it valuable as a private asset and service our debt, and raise capital to rebuild it post-2020 instead of it being made a public utility #NBN #NBN2

Good Q. Down here in Seachange given up on the NBN. Use Telstra 4G box. Not good enough. NBN imposed.

@Henjam48 @JaneCaro @TonyAbbottMHR @NBN_Australia They’ve been set up to fail. Like most entities that are answerable to govt. The person responsible for it all is JWH. Had Telstra not been sold in the first place, it would have continued to upgrade its network and we may not have needed an NBN on the scale the ALP envisaged.

And 3 out of 4 premises are now capable of connecting to the NBN! Well that is at your own risk! It's just more bullshit from government and ISP companies to scam more money from anyone stupid enough to opt for this NBN CRAP!

My internet is still not working and @Optus cannot explain to me why. It is capable of chats that are kingdom of lies apportioning blame to @NBN_Australia for matters such as usernames and provisioning that do not concern it. Still waiting for about 8 promised call backs.

@Kynes3 It’s a disgrace but I’m not surprised. They sold off Telstra and then NBN has to pay it ridiculous money to have access to infrastructure that belonged to us. Would never have needed the NBN if Telstra wasn’t privatized as it was open door policy to not spend money on maintenance

@redspactakells @JustJen64 @KKeneally @vanbadham @LukeHowarthMP @SkyNewsAust @SHendersonMP @LibbyCokerLabor @abcmelbourne Damn right. Sarah is always there for photo opportunities but has failed to deliver NBN, made what should have been a public hospital in Waurn Ponds, a bloody big private hospital which only the insureds can afford! Etc., etc. 0.03% needed to swing to @LibbyCokerLabor #auspol

For a communications company @NBN_Australia sucks. For 3 weeks I have been asking for a review of the installation of a node outside my house. I will accept the outcome but all I requested was a review before works began. Not one person has called. Ignoring is not communicating

All I can say about the wretched NBN down here in Seachange it's slower than dial-up, a bit like cold congealed porridge morning after, actually...

@NBN_Australia The outage was resolved about 7 hours later. I also checked the NBN linked site on the day nearly 2 hours after it went down and it didn't show any outage either. However NBN and providers are monitoring outages it's NOT working. Every time it's taking 2-3 hours for outage - 1/2

So while I was having pc issues my entire net died and I’ve had to lodge another fault with NBN 😛

@navypti @abc730 @abcnews When no heads rolled over the ABC's hiding its own expertise on the NBN to help the LNP during an election it showed its colours. It wasn't even embarrassed about it.

Unbelievable how, in #Australia our #NBN “broadband” “service” is so rubbish two people about 3 hours drive apart are unable to get a solid enough connection to voice chat, let alone play a game reliant on timing... #ThisIsAustralia #auspol #AuspolSoCorrupt

@backupbear We're sorry for the inconvenience. NBN has confirmed that the assigned technician is now on-site to investigate the service issue. Further updates will be communicated via SMS by our outage monitoring team. -Geli

That’s right folks. Today I’m gonna be one of those people who have NBN in Australia, get ready for my enraging tweets about how slow and shit the internet will be sometimes

@Telstra @abcnews I know it was not just @telstra , everyone on NBN is screwed, however NBN and Telstra are both government, and they decided to shut down internet services which were cheaper and more reliable and force NBN to justify $27 billion in tax spend (27=51 in 'gov' language)

An estimated 3000 to 4000 NBN users nationwide are believed to be affected by an outage involving the Skymuster satellite that provides NBN to many rural areas. The outage began about 10am yesterday. NBN says it’s working to “restore services as soon as possible”.

@NBN_Australia Hi, I've reached the limit that the copper network will provide and unless you are actually offering to replace the useless copper then you are no help to me at all and I would rather spend my time finding viable alternatives.

@Optus @GorokanNews NBN outage in the whole strip of shops, has been since 8am customer service couldn't give us any idea when it would be up.
