  True. NBN Co is the picture of efficiency and never suffers outages or coverage issues.

  @Nick40156474438 @Willygc13Will @JimThom90458694 I feel this. NBN is absolute ***. Every day I too get outages and need to reboot everything. So bad it’s a routine for me. Pretty close to changing to Starlink myself.

  @B_e_n_n_y @r0ck3t23 It’s already obsolete. If you have decent 5G it’s light years ahead of NBN. Most cities don’t have proper 5G though. They think they do but it’s awful pretty much everywhere except Gold Coast.

  I rearranged my furniture like I said I might. Crashed my NBN doing it and now it will not connect. Spent the last hour on the providers help text… the backup 4G SIM WiFi Connection isn’t working either… the technician is coming later this week … The flat is more cluttered and I should have left it like it was… That filled the day anyway. I needed the exercise… I can’t sleep ..

  @Batman2242 Much worse. Starlink is an infinely better service; higher speeds, low latency. NBN satellite cross subsidy alone is more than a starlink subscription. NBN satellites are EOL, they've contracted Amazon's Kuiper for replacement rather than proven starlink 🤪 They hate Elon

  Hey @beourmate MateNBN, I have had zero NBN in my unit for around an hr now, currently using 4G on my mobile. App states nil services issues or outages. Cycled modem + NBN box, still ZERO. No emails from you about scheduled outages? Whats going on? CC @NBN_Australia

  @geofiasco @DHughesy @aaronsmith Aside: Whether the Telstra sale was ultimately a windfall is contested. It raised $60bn to sell the assets, then we spent $60bn on NBN Co just to regain access to the assets sold and duplicate/upgrade the network we sold - and Telstra has paid something like $80-85bn in shareholder dividends along the way. In many respects, NBN shouldn't exist. It should have been the $80-85bn in "shareholder dividends" to the Public Owner that paid for the fibres to be laid - not a $60bn investment after a $60bn sale. But NBN was forced to be created after a now-shareholder-owned Telstra responded to how it might build a national broadband network with a non-compliant 12 page letter effectively saying "we won't - the copper wires are our privately-owned monopoly and we want to protect our market monopoly".

  @strangerous10 A lot of people forget the NBN was in part to shift the fixed broadband service monopoly from Telstra.

  @ArtistAffame If you don't have a wifi router then you will. The 5G is the mobile network, you connect to the internet via that or via NBN. Usually then it connects to a wifi router.
