dazcoull (@dazcoull) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@NBN_Australia my FTTP service went out a while ago. Tarneit, VIC 3029. Did not come back and no reports of outages. Power cycled devices of course. ISP informed but of course out of support hours. Any news?

Scott Pappali (@scottvirus) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@glen_dsouza WTF, how did you get that on NBN?
-
jonnyforeigner (@j_foreigner) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaNow to play the game: Is this NBN internet outage related to the current downpour, or is it a proper fault?
-
Paul Lenkic (@PaulLenkic) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaAnybody else in the Moorabbin or Melbourne South East area having internet issues with their @Telstra nbn connection?
-

-
Pratik Sawant (@pratik_sawant10) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@BelongAU My NBN seems to be down for past couple of days now. Speed looks healthy but none of the content seems to load. I also checked and there are no outages in 3122.

AJ Steel (@ajsteelofficial) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaIs anyone in #Reservoir having problems with their #optus #nbn connection?
-
Adam Gemmell (@raymond3020) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus talk about impossible to contact you to find out why my nbn is not working. Happy to give my data away but not help.
-
Tim McMahon (@_TimMcMahon) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaService providers should be required to authenticate a customer before disclosing whether an address is experiencing: - nbn outage - mobile outage - power outage Currently anyone can search a home or business address and find out if there's an outage. #cybersecurity #auspol

Prime Minister of Australia News 🌻 (@AustraliaPM) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@MRowlandMP @AnneWerriwa I call bullshit. If you were serious, you would make FTTP part of the national building code for new builds. Treat FTTP like a utility. Korea did this 20 years ago. Wake ******** up. Or continue to bumble along like a bunch of overpaid 3rd world sycophants. #auspol #nbn

Chris McLay (@chrismclay) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Aussie_BB why is it easier to change NBN provider than to change my payment details? I get times are hard, but this is getting stupid. Use your sales teams to back up your support teams.

アルちゃま🦋✡️🗝️🎀🛸💫💎🧨🥊🐸🍭 (@AL88MZ) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaJust got off the phone with my ISP's tech support and they reckon it will be a 4 - 8 hour downtime. They couldn't gather additional info from the NBN either (Who announced the unscheduled downtime.), which isn't really good news.
-
Ben Grodeck (@benleo_econ) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@yannikyriacos Due to the below par NBN network we have, that extra fast internet will come in handy.
-
r3toric (@r3toric) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@NBN_Australia @southeastwater @BaysideCouncil Consider this the report. I want be sitting on hold for 45 minutes and speaking to someone in Malaysia about problems in Australia that won't get looked at. This whole street has copped it. Litterally all of your hardware is underwater. Do what you will with this information 🤝🏼
NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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
-
MR Reilly (@mrr78504) reported@econoadabsurdam @LeeRespecter The NBN might plausibly have increased productivity if it had retained its original scope (A FTTN fibre backbone network independent of Telstra that would allow telecommunication companies to compete on an equal footing). Instead it got rolled out first in Tasmania.
-
JustMate (@Ruslan11431897) reported@AvidCommentator Starlink is much cheaper…personally I never had NBN and can’t understand why average home user prefers NBN over starlink right now…
-
Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reported@THATS_RIGHT_YA @robb_j_m That download ping is faulty. Should be more like 20. Could be your computer, NIC, browser, or modem/router (and its settings). If you are with TPG you can log into your account and do an NBN test, which will check the line, and they'll contact you if there's a problem.

Berry Straw 🍓 (@ddnnddc) reportedACMA is NOT currently running a spectrum auction for LEO satellite broadband. In December 2025, ACMA decided against auctioning a large amount of expiring spectrum. Instead, they chose to renew the licenses held by mobile operators and NBN. Their reasoning was that auctions could disrupt existing services and slow down new technologies like low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Amazon's Project Kuiper is coming to Australia in mid-2026 through a major partnership with NBN Co. This will give Starlink its first real competition in the country, especially in regional and remote areas. This is generally good news for consumers because more competition usually means better prices and redundancy.
-
My handle was funnier when it was less believable. (@AIproject6) reported@wilburston @robb_j_m I highly doubt any satellite service is better than NBN unless you're literally not in the coverage area.
-
Peter Strachan (@Peter_Strachan) reported@NBN_Australia, I have had no NBN service since the 11th of April in Cottesloe, WA. The date for reconnection keeps moving out. Do you have any serious information on when it will return and what is the problem?
-
Milan 🇦🇺🇷🇸 (@inter_miki) reported@designerontheru @AvidCommentator That's because the prices for 500 is the same as 100 which is a big problem because the ISP makes hardly nothing from your $95 to begin with. Maybe $5 as they take all the risk and NBN makes all the money
-
xjet (@xjet) reported@eevblog @Hobbie4C Perhaps there's been a huge surge in demand for bandwidth from those cellsites since the NBN outage? Everyone has the same idea as you and bandwidth is finite. The more concurrent users, the lower the throughput.
-
Susan (@puxiesmt) reported@jeff32567916 @australian He recognised that NBN via wifi (using mobile phone network) is a bad idea, when the mobile phone towers back up battery's go flat (couple if hours) we have no communication at all, we should all still have wired communication but we don't so it's very easy to switch it all off
