Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, ACTIf I was NZ I would do the same thing! Rub our lazy Au Netflix binging faces in the fact we settled for a third rate access network #nbn @MRowlandMP @SenatorFifield @AUSenator

Verner Verass (@VernVerass) reported from Canberra, ACT@mephistojones Mephisto ~ the NBN is intentionally sub-standard: The original model of fibre to the premises will need to be retro-fitted ~ the NBN requires a rebuild to meet world standard service delivery.

Annie Martin AM (@MartinAnne139) reported from Canberra, ACT@Telstra This is not much help as this has been going on for weeks so I suggest you contact the nbn and get this sorted thank you. Such failures around communication when dealing with the elderly some like my parents have no idea about this.

Josh Withers (@JoshuaWithers) reported from Canberra, ACT@jendudley @eliotharper In the months before we were allowed to switch, NBN staff told me that we were already on the NBN network, they would change everyone slowly, then once all were converted, you could switch.

Ian (@Ian__P) reported from Canberra, ACT@ajamesbragg @AlboMP I'd raise the issue of #NBN advertising which seems wasteful and pointless given they aren't retailing to consumers directly.

HG (@hgo7627) reported from Canberra, ACT@JmarrMarr Apparently we now can — by engaging @NBN_Australia to provide fibre to the home. Because of my crap service I got a quote. Sadly, I won’t get my crap service improved — quote was more than $5k.

RepublicanRoz #SaveOurABC💧 (@AussieRoz) reported from Canberra, ACT@JaneCaro @NBN_Australia Just send a tweet about The Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman NBN suddenly played nice. So did my provider. I got my own support person!!

Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, ACT@NBN_Australia @UncleAl60932514 Tweak plans = poor Project management = ad-hoc mess. #nbn

David Bond (@drdavebond) reported from Canberra, ACT@RodericChambers I think they must have the #NBN here, the network is somewhat slow
-
Allan Behm (@Mirandaprorsus) reported from Canberra, ACT@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.

Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, ACT@NerdyNigel @AfraidOfWidths @SenatorFifield @SteveAustinABC @AUSenator @TurnbullMalcolm @NBN_Australia Maybe he is one of the 5% with a dodgy modem 😂🤣 - suspect the Modem firmware is the least of @NBN_Australia problems, but I bet they spent a shitload of resources to come to the same conclusion we have had for the last 7 years.. that MTM will burn money in maintaince. #nbn

Christian Lindsay (@DesignLindsay) reported from Canberra, ACT@NBN_Australia I rely on the internet for my design business The lack of reliable service puts my income and ability to service customers at risk I'd appreciate a plan to fix the issue. One obvious step is to relocate to a closer pit

Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, ACT@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.

Gaz 🖖 (@garydlum) reported from Canberra, ACT@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.

🍀 (@7Dea) reported from Canberra, ACT@VodafoneAU hi, our nbn modem is having a trouble that the blue light in LAN sign is not flashing. All of sudden it happened when we were studying at home in Belconnen, ACT. Pls help.

Wade (@VK1MIC) reported from Canberra, ACTNBN BATTERY PROTIP unless you actually have a wired phone they do not offer anything and you can take the battery out - you just open the box. Grab the terminals and slide them off - and they never beep again! Every place we have been in with NBN has had its battery tossed.

Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, ACT@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.
-
Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, ACT@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.

mark ayres (@MarkAyres_) reported from Canberra, ACTSomebody do something about the NBN, it’s up and down so often my no-ip dns provider is threatening to ask for more money to cover wear and tear. #auspol

Andrew Mcnaught (@AndrewMcna12272) reported@KatyKray73 1/2 Now, Katy, you have to remember that Labor across the country is good at announcements. That they never carry them out is beside the point. In Qld Miles had a 'Labor back of coaster' (remember Rudd and NBN) idea that Labor would have state owned/run petrol stations.

Michael Brennan (@Michael44814776) reported@BamBam0667 @EnergyWrapAU No, nbn has cost far more due to LNP. LNP original costing: Promised $29.5B (2013 election); revised to $41B in Strategic Review. The evidence is that in the caucus , as detailed in Turnbull’s book, Abbott simply wanted LNP to be contrarian about nbn. They stopped the fibre rollout and replaced it with copper. At the time, LNPs message that nbn would go over budget was favoured due to a complicit media. For instance, when the ABC science editor did a comprehensive comparison between labour’s FTTP and LNP copper, the report was spiked until after the election, due to ABC management wanting to appease LNP. Then, under LNP, ABC did not have a science editor. Consider the subsequent dearth of reporting by ABC in following years about the biggest infrastructure project ever. Consider that Turnbull appointed a former business associate to be chair of ABC whilst a Director of NBN snd whilst a ceo of a supplier to NBN with a $100m contract for design and fabrication of copper based distribution boxes, which have subsequently been removed. So there is no surprise that the public were force fed the line that all that glitters is copper. The reality set in when the deterioration of the copper network became apparent to punters. The cost of NBN is now at approx $50B with $54B to 2030 to due to the replacement costs of LNPs copper systems with fibre. So Abbott and Turnbull cost the country many billions not to mention the years of misery and lost productivity by prolonging the copper network.

Snowhite62 (@Snowhite621) reported@PaulGugAI @OfficialLoganK @Starlink We were paying for 500gb of nbn directly to our house. Very rarely did we experience those speeds at all. We had numerous technicians come out to fix the issue and nothing changed. We got starlink delivered and set up and we havent lost anything since. We live rural too. 🇦🇺

Bulldogs57 (@Bulldogs5711) reported@MarkoMatvikov How ? Debt is down They are fixing NDIS Inland rail NBN Robodebt Not sure what you want to do about Snowy & AUKUS. And $1.2 T debt won’t disappear. It’s inherited. LNP / ON are calling to increase defence.

💥Dr Robb 🎓Social conscience? Follow me. No MAGA (@robb_j_m) reportedTo my Aussie friends: Wasn't the idea behind the NBN (National Broadband Network) to ensure that everyone had access to free (or at the very least inexpensive) internet? What happened? How much are you paying for internet access?
-
Jay (@TheGreenGoat79) reported@bobslidelx @JacintaAllanMP I've got 2 more weeks on current project than have about 20k of drilling left in sydney (installing goverment fibre optic network, like nbn but not ****) Then hopefully at the end of this year start of next we are either doing ali ce springs to darwin or toowoomba to chinchilla

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?

some0nethere (@some0nethere) reported@OMGTheMess I am an EV driver, but I do not think others should be paying for it. Perhaps if the government invested in standing up a government owned charger network that had a sound business case and sold it later, that might be ok. However, that was what NBN was supposed to do with internet...
