-
-jase- (@Jaseomeara) reported from Fenwick, Victoria@NBN_Australia why is it so difficult to get issues rectified? I’m stuck in a loop between you and @telstra. Two years on and our nbn is still slow. It shouldn’t be this difficult.

Monicasmeow🐈 (@monicasmeow) reported from Geelong, Victoria@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.

Darren Gilmore 🇦🇺 (@darrengilmore6) reported from Geelong, Victoria@KayeThetimothy @Telstra I'm having trouble with NBN but hopefully fixed Tuesday...

Max Blake (@maxblake44) reported from Geelong, Victoria@iiNet hey guys just wondering if there is an wide spread outage in the 3216 area (NBN) haven’t got any internet this morning and last night it was on/off
-
Dave Wood (@75b0ce8567df4cd) reported from Geelong, VictoriaAnd 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!

Kathy Reid, Servant of House Corgi (@KathyReid) reported from Geelong, VictoriaSummary: 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

Antony (Tony) Walker (@tonywalker1) reported from Fenwick, VictoriaGood Q. Down here in Seachange given up on the NBN. Use Telstra 4G box. Not good enough. NBN imposed.

CORY (@cory_actually) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Vintuitive Must just be that the NBN is shit 😉🤣
-
Cory (@cjnetlink) reported from Geelong, VictoriaWhy is @3AW693 targeting @Telstra about the NBN and how it’ll cope with the increased load on the network. There are other providers of the NBN out there. #sheeple listening will take any slow downs or outages as being Telstra’s fault/problem.

Rod Sims 💉💉 (@rodneysims) reported from Geelong, Victoria@PaulFletcherMP Paul, I am thankful that my ISP is maintaining its HFC network so that I don’t have to connect to your NBN.

bob (@BrettS69) reported@EnergyWrapAU @BhagsNStonks The NBN lacked a clear business case, and tried to deliver a Singapore solution to a geographically different Australia. The future was wireless.
-
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.

Lucas | 🇦🇺 (@TheBlackWallaby) reported@australian Even Tesla is made in China, so what is the actual issue here? This was sent from my Mac Mini, made in China, sitting on a desk made in China, connected to the NBN through a Wi-Fi gateway made in China, typed from my Logitech keyboard, made in China, while I sit in an office chair made in China, looking at a Samsung monitor made in, checks notes, Vietnam. At some point the argument has to get more precise than “China bad.” If the concern is connected vehicles, telemetry, firmware access, data storage, or fleet security for MPs, then make that argument properly and apply it consistently across all networked devices. But pretending Chinese EVs are uniquely suspicious while half the modern office supply chain is already Chinese-made is not analysis. My iPhone (made in China) is connected to my Apple Auto - driving me around tracking me on a GPS map, with a microphone that works, and the Head Unit (made in China) Where does it end?

mastodon.au/@macropin (@macropin) reported@eevblog NBN don't have the equipment necessary to maintain their own network. More consultants will fix the 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.

RocK_M (@RocKM16827690) reported@fuIIcreamy @robb_j_m Nah sounds more like "Libs screwed me over but I'll blame NBN coz thats what Libs told me" issue since the poster is likely on the overpriced Wireless NBN which was half arsed on roll out That or just someone spouting **** to keep the whole NBN was a waste of money crap going

Yvonne (@YBartolovic) reportedLots and sometimes can’t even get 1mpbs Not joking Not nbn though but still **** house

Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@pointman69 @CefaiJason @robb_j_m 10 years and $30b wasted on LNPs stupid idea. All the whole Turnbull invested in fibre rollouts in Europe and the supplier of copper to the nbn

Kang Li (@aphacia) reported@NBN_Australia no NBN service in Cherrybrook 2126 from this morning there has been HFC replacement recently nearby was it because the project missed cutting the HFC cable for internet then caused the unplanned outage and when it is back?
