    @StevensAsh @DavidSo24895212 Yes Labor did say $41b to build their gold plated NBN. Of course they never built it so we don't know how much it really would have cost. The LNP version was cheaper yet has cost a lot more. I'm certain if Labor had built their version it would have been over $100B.

    Crap NBN #PromiseOfAustralia

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    HFC is a black hole - you can't model a national communications network off what a commerical entity has done overseas #nbn There objective is to keep it above water.

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @NBN_Australia @naomi_t_81 Honestly after you add up all the work required to retrofit the last 1000m of old Telstra phone cabling and fixing issues with customer cabling it becomes much more expensive than the original project scope of fibre to 93% without the constant maintenance bill #nbn

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @peter_c_william @RichardTuffin @NBN_Australia Project Management failure at all levels. Including piss poor contractor management. You could have the best tools available (aka Engineers) and still use them incorrectly...#nbn

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Guarantee #NBN have the latency and packet loss data on its microwave links. They have it @AUSenator . It's basic Network management

  • trib Stephen Collins (@trib) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @paulestorey @NBN_Australia I'll be on FTTC, so I'm hopeful. Congestion shouldn't be an issue.

  • TheGrumpyGamer1 The Grumpy Gamer (@TheGrumpyGamer1) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    I cannot wait till our NBN connection goes live!!! Hopefully only a few more weeks of this crap. And if anyone wants to share this with The Signal Co, go nuts, cause apparently I’m a rude and difficult to deal with, so they’ve blocked me on Twitter!

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @jakegriffiths @NBN_Australia @SenatorFifield @MRowlandMP @AUSenator Only three weeks ago you say - consistency is pretty bad from @NBN_Australia #NotSurprised #ausvotes

  • ClarkGreenaway Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @BawdenSnoek I don't mind, sometimes I hang on until I get a real person after such calls about Telstra or NBN. Then I call them thieves and liars until they hang up.

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @peter_c_william @NickRossTech Wonder if he actually engages with the key stakeholders - ie The Australian Public! #nbn So over @NBN_Australia pathetic excuses and covering for the poor decisions of the last 7 years. No wonder many jumped ship when the cards were on the table

  • TravGee1980 Travis (@TravGee1980) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    .@HankJongen @Telstra uses this technology. I have made 19 calls to them since August 2018 about reconnecting our work landline and cancelling #NBN They have a record of 3. This is not about improving customer service. It's about compliance & surveillance. #Auspol #Satanlink

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @NBN_Australia @UncleAl60932514 Tweak plans = poor Project management = ad-hoc mess. #nbn

  • Mirandaprorsus Allan Behm (@Mirandaprorsus) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @mjrowland68 @BreakfastNews Have endured weeks of very slow NBN speed, < 6 Mbps. The techo came, opened the Telstra pit to find 60 yr old copper encased in lead, and broken wires. So much for Tinkering Turnbull’s fibre to the node.

  • Elias_Hallaj 💧 Elias Hallaj (@Elias_Hallaj) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Australia is drowning, rather than surfing, thanks to ScoMo’s LNP. “... after spending $51 billion on a second-rate obsolete network the Coalition government’s plan for the NBN has been a total failure”. #AusPol

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Quote from @NBN_Australia" One of the challenges nbn has identified are premises that are located too far away from existing nbn™ network assets- Fibre to the Node Cabinet (typically where copper lines exceed 1.3km)" Talk about a no #nbn shit statement

  • ClarkGreenaway Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @toadmeister @guardian Sorry Toby, you are being mislead by the Guardian as usual. Netflix states you need 5Mbs for HD quality viewing. Every Australian on the NBN has at least 10Mbs connection. The ALP stated the NBN would cost $40 billion dollars not $15 and it was never going to happen for that.

  • AlexDunnin alex dunnin (@AlexDunnin) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @DendyCanberra big problems with the movie system tonite. It’s like they’re streaming it thru a dodgy NBN connection and the buffering is on dial-up. So bad they’ve just rebooted the system. Extraordinary.

  • ClarkGreenaway Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @theoztrucker The subs don't make a lot of sense and the NBN was always a disaster, a Rolls Royce limo instead of a bus service. The Snowy I don't know, seems to make sense. The fighter aircraft are necessary but not themselves. They are for reasons no one wants to voice.

  • garydlum Gaz 🖖 (@garydlum) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @benny_132 @horrorfan4129 @Telstra Thanks. I've been waiting on hold. I will hang up and get on with my day. I feel sorry for people relying on #nbn for their livelihood when these things happen.

  • willie1foot Stewart (@willie1foot) reported

    @johnsy123aus @NBN_Australia Then you need to contact Optus; it may not be an NBN issue. Your agreement is with your ISP and they should sort out the issue for you.

  • ageofblasphemy The Age of Blasphemy (@ageofblasphemy) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    The NBN is a pathetic ruin. The criminal #LNPDeathCult deliberately sabotaged it, and sold Australians out, to benefit an American media mogul. How and why on earth do we put up with this corrupt crap in Australia? #MurdochRoyalCommission

  • johnsy123aus stephen (@johnsy123aus) reported

    @NBN_Australia It’s been 2 weeks they say you will fix it? And nothing happens

  • NoelBt Noel (@NoelBt) reported

    @iTnews_au pfft @NBN_Australia is all about anti competitive behaviour, it thinks it should be the only supplier, remember the 90s when the monopoly of telstra was broken, ending a monopoly that gave us to 25c p/MB because there was no incentive to be nice, just rip us off like NBN does

  • kjbillones jane (@kjbillones) reported

    @NBN_Australia Already contacted my provider but they’re pointing the blame on you guys. I think the issue is with the TAP again. Same thing happened to us a year ago, and now it’s happening again.

  • CaseHolmes Case Holmes (@CaseHolmes) reported

    @NBN_Australia Issues in 2093? Has been down for 4 days, NBN website shows no outage at our address, Telstra shows no outage at our address...

  • Vass2016 Vass (@Vass2016) reported

    @SarkySage @Optus For the past 3 weeks we have been getting our internet in blocks of about 6 hours before it goes off. Sometimes we have a full day and then we don't have it for 1-2 days. Like the old Soviet system. That's @Optus for you. NBN come around say there is no problem and we start again

  • kevthelip kev (@kevthelip) reported

    @nobby15 Sounds of the nbn disaster and how much did that cost the country? LNP are unable to put much thought together with big nation investment. You would have thought that the inability to hold fuel security level would have brought this energy security problem to the fore?

  • mindycroz SabineCrox (@mindycroz) reported

    So in Australia after 9 years of #LNPCorruptionParty we have NBN fail, ABC failing, our public service, humanity system, we hear more from business not Australians on pandemic. When we hear from Aus we hear from privileged few, not those struggling after floods, fires etc

  • jpdashcat Joss Peters (@jpdashcat) reported

    @MattDoran91 It’s not like the #Morrison Govt sat much & @PaulFletcherMP was a hopeless MP anyway. He used his so-called executive powers to override good advice. He was terrible with the NBN & shocking with the state of our infrastructure!
