    @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.

    If 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

    @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

    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.

    @mrbargearse @PuntHubAus The issue is the poor level that the NBN brings in country areas.. it is simply ordinary. Pay for 100% get less than 1% in peak periods. This is the issue for the streaming argument. The infrastructure is woeful.

  • Steve_Pesic

    Everyone giving scomo grief for leadership but the bosses from Telstra and NBN should be high on the list for poor leadership, thousands of people with no phones or internet, hours, days, weeks and months spent by people just trying to use a service in Australia in 2020...

    @SwannyQLD @colleenhm They will never admit to making a real *****-up of the #NBN and that they spitefully screwed it because it's never been a #LibNat strength to improve things like national infrastructure. All they see is money being spent with no obvious benefits. They suffer from extreme myopia

    Thoughtful NBN fibre additions just announced, only the cynical would consider it a deliberate pre-election ploy. Scott n Co would never do such a thing. Tasmania, ACT and NT are not part of this initiative, there words to be said over this which would attract a "disappearance"

  • hgo7627
    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.

    @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.

  • RossStewart14

    @Floatdownriver I get this call roughly every second day. It is a computer generated voice and it's a #SCAM .I've had NBN for about 2 years. Just hang up.

  • drdavebond
    David Bond (@drdavebond) reported from Canberra, ACT

    @RodericChambers I think they must have the #NBN here, the network is somewhat slow

  • VernVerass
    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.

    Hey @NBN_Australia fix your system issues and stop rejecting orders so I can have the internet at my new house! People are trying to work from home you know.

    @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!!

    Crap NBN #PromiseOfAustralia

  • Technorants
    Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, ACT

    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

  • Technorants
    Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, ACT

    @sulrich70 @NBN_Australia @Deborah_ONeill If @NBN_Australia took a more risk managed approach with MTM design they should have gone with a connection agnostic endpoint. It would solve so many of this issues with renters and those that move around. Once again KISS was ignored #nbn

    @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.

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

    @r0ck3t23 It wont effect providers as much as you think. We have the NBN in Australia and all that happened is everyone became resellers or add on service providers. The telco's wont disappear, they just wont have to pay for infrastructure anymore and become SpaceX resellers.

  • PeterLeversha
    Peter Leversha (@PeterLeversha) reported

    @merchant_s35416 @Bender_Aus Privatising telecom was the right thing to do. And selling off Telstra was an even better idea. Both were drains in the economy. Trying to get telecom to fix anything used to be a pain in the butt. Look at NBN, over priced garbage. There's nothing wrong with a user pays system. Why should people in Horsham pay for a road they don't use in Melbourne?

  • LambDownUnder
    LambDownUnder (@LambDownUnder) reported

    @TheLucidyn @Batman2242 Kind of proving the point. Gov can't perceive anything. Making large Capex decisions that are supposed to be generational. It was anti competitive from the outset. Private companies (TPG notable) were prohibited from building out their own network. Regardless, I can have starlink internet now for about the same monthly price as the NBN except i didn't have to front the Capex (and debt) for it. NBN very likely has a negative ROI. I wish we judged policies by outcomes not intentions.

  • 60YOGamer
    mutantmonkeybutt (@60YOGamer) reported

    @PaulBongiorno Try living in rural Vic and getting an Australian made fixed satellite NBN service. Up until Starlink our snowfields resembled dial-up and we could not watch a streaming service without the loading circle popping up every minute or two.

    May be a possible delay tonight due to emergency nbn maintenance 😭 fingers crossed 🤞🏻

    @LloydRusse17883 @deemadigan So you also need government to get out of health, education, transport, policing, NBN, clean water, defence, emergency services, etc.?

    @PieNorthern I haven't had a problem in ages... since we upgraded to NBN high speed. Hate to say it but it might be a tech problem. Although I do get it!

  • nonnygb
    Nonny (@nonnygb) reported

    @Jenbox360 Nah that's not torture... I've finally convinced my ISP & NBN here there's an issue with my fibre connection with 40+ dropouts a day. It's taken them a month & 4 callouts to finally accept it's not my hardware or within my property. I was losing my mind.

  • Rolly50Hundred
    Rolly polly (@Rolly50Hundred) reported

    @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.

    @SydneyCityTV Those horrendous pins are still being worn. WIN News’ product is piss poor compared to NBN News. But the latter will probably become rubbish in time.
