Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Hobart and nearby locations:

  • ollie_bo Ollie Roberts (@ollie_bo) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @Optus @NBN_Australia Currently on hold to Optus & online chat. We’ve been told the relocation request we put in doesn’t exist, even though it is in multiple chat threads with Optus who said they’d arrange this. They recognised that our service was previously working, just not with the speed boost WTF

  • maxitaxi3333 Queen MaxiTaxi #FreeAssange (@maxitaxi3333) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    Exactly, exactly, exactly! If the Labor NBN had gone through, it would be finished by now, NBN FTTP would be there without copper wire problems and, I cannot go on about how bad this decision was. And the cost of FTTP would have been equal to this mess. @TurnbullMalcolm

  • LilMrPotatoHead Littlemrpotatohead (@LilMrPotatoHead) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @OptusSport We'd love to enjoy @OptusSport however our @Optus nbn is down for 24-48 hours 👍

  • leah_galvin Leah Galvin 🍎🍒🥑🥦🥕🌽🌰🍓🧀 (@leah_galvin) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    Wow an NBN outage down till Sunday 6th October!!! It's school holidays and teenagers are struggling. Oh books and outside look good @Telstra

  • TasGreg Greg C (@TasGreg) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @BevanShields @AntonEnus "But has no modelling to support the claim" Just like Direct Action emission reduction or the cost of ALP NBN or the $660billion ALP debt blowout etc etc #FreePassToBS

  • parisba Dr Paris Buttfield-Addison 🖋📚 #HeadFirstSwift 🖖 (@parisba) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @shanselman This is trivial in Australia, as our NBN (“national broadband network”) hardware has 4x ports for that specific purpose. No idea for the USA though... 🙃

  • AnthonyPress Tony Press (@AnthonyPress) reported from Tinderbox, State of Tasmania

    @NBN_Australia 1. These slow speeds are common across different service providers in the district. 2. The many times I’ve pursued this topic it becomes a duck-shoving exercise: NBN Co. says it’s the service provider; the service provider says it’s lack of capacity at the NBN tower.

  • astir0412 💧John (@astir0412) reported from Margate, State of Tasmania

    Just some advice from recent experience to anyone signing up for NBN fixed wireless If the ISP says the speed is limited to 25 mbits down tell them to do better or go away You should be able to get at least 50mbits with a good connection at around $70, and unlimited data

  • ollie_bo Ollie Roberts (@ollie_bo) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @NBN_Australia An update: called @Optus who transferred us to @NBN_Australia who then told us that there is an outage in the Sandy Bay (Tasmania) area and that the internet would be on in 4 hours (9pm last night). 9pm has been and gone. Standard troubleshooting, eg reboot hardware, etc & nada!

  • MarkODo56940751 Mark O’Donnell (@MarkODo56940751) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @MikeCarlton01 So between Turnbull and Morrison they have delivered the two most costly blunders in a Australian history in the Submarines and the NBN, all from the better money managers wtf

  • astir0412 💧John (@astir0412) reported from Margate, State of Tasmania

    @mana_sean Don't take any **** from these people I put up with telstra for years If NBN provides up to 50 mbits you have a right to have access to it There is lots of competition

  • parisba Dr Paris Buttfield-Addison 🖋📚 #HeadFirstSwift 🖖 (@parisba) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @DrKrissyH Just gotten too slow — and don’t offer the higher tier NBN plans

  • suzanne_cass 💧Suzanne Cass ☘️☘️🇮🇪 (@suzanne_cass) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @NickRossTech @NBN_Australia My FTTN is crap. My ADSL was faster.

  • feelingswell Robert Gavin (@feelingswell) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @NBN_Australia @Farmgate138 I like that “experiencing some issues” have had NBN for some years now. We quickly found the baseline service was crap and upgraded to the next level - which is great when it works, but reading the fine print, NBN only warrant it will work for 2mins annually

  • Watershedd 🦉🦆Watershedd🦜🦉 (@Watershedd) reported

    Optus: *Forces me onto NBN during lockdown with outright lies. *Tell me fees won't change, up it a few months later. *Damage roof at installation, resulting in plaster damage. *Enable data theft, refuse to explain extent. *Now up the fee by $4 pm. NOT HAPPY OPTUS.

  • Miss_Squiggle Darcy Bennett (@Miss_Squiggle) reported

    @Optus The moment I hang up, ur staff disconnect my nbn! Now, after another 30 mins on the phone to get it reconnected I’m told it’ll take another hour! If ur going to outsource your call centre for cheap labour, at least spend some of the extra money on training competent staff!

  • scottie1578 Scott Smith (@scottie1578) reported

    @AGLEnergy been trying to get nbn on at my home address on it’s been over 3 weeks but nothing you won’t send anyone at here to help Not happy

  • pikeonaplate Pikeonaplate (@pikeonaplate) reported

    @Internode hi guys, has anyone reported NBN being completely down? I’ve reset my modem with no luck. I’ve tried ringing the help desk and the wait time is over an hour so I assume something is wrong?

  • NBarton Nathan Barton 🇦🇺 🇹🇼 🇺🇦 (@NBarton) reported

    @nbn how many times do you need to repair a service area??? have received mabe a dozen messages this year advising "Scheduled Maintenance" half the time it is scheduled for 2 minutes later! Usually the duration is 6 hours or more. Time to just rip it up and put in fibre!

  • craig230 Craig Eaton (@craig230) reported

    @QueenDissidence @beourmate @Vick25599318 Yes same here and Mate website not working either - NBN status said all good so it’s an ISP issue

  • bjnev Ben (@bjnev) reported

    What the hell @NBN_Australia ? Down yet again, forced to hotspot from my mobile. No notices, no explanations, no end in sight. Third world internet at first world prices.

  • ThomasRosslyn Rozzie (@ThomasRosslyn) reported

    @bradley_kellett And the network NBN

  • craig230 Craig Eaton (@craig230) reported

    @beourmate Still no internet in Perth, been out since 11.30am and is only Mate customers, everyone else fine and not NBN issue

  • Zeerabets Zeerabets (@Zeerabets) reported

    @Gamergirl_Monty You've got a really good deal! I feel terrible, LOL. My monthly Optus bill is $200 because I have NBN and a phone plan, and I've never really negotiated a good deal, LOL. I'd better do it now
