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

  • JoshuaWithers Josh Withers (@JoshuaWithers) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • Lindday8 Lindsay (@Lindday8) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @Telstra NBN speed slow and dropping out in Flynn act is there issue

  • 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.

  • Tikkaspecial Steve Smith (@Tikkaspecial) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @Optus NBN down this morning. Website reports no issues at 2911.

  • cherellemurpfry Cherelle Murphy (@cherellemurpfry) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    NBN capacity lifted to help those who can work from home to do so.

  • 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.

  • garth_morrison Garth Morrison (@garth_morrison) reported from Queanbeyan, State of New South Wales

    @NBN_Australia Response from NBN - ‘Go to your service provider’ 🙄 They’ve been on it for months guys. You’re the hold up.

  • bridgettilley Bridget Tilley (@bridgettilley) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Hi @Telstra I just received a robo call telling me my internet will be disconnected today to fix a problem ( I don’t have a problem). I’m an @iiNet customer with @NBN_Australia in Belconnen area Canberra. Could you pls advise ?

  • sargentsarto Adam (@sargentsarto) reported from Queanbeyan, State of New South Wales

    @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.

  • hgo7627 HG (@hgo7627) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • skwashd Dave Hall aka Not Funny (@skwashd) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @gusworldau @NBN_Australia It’s frustrating when you know more about the problem than the person copying and pasting boilerplate yet you’re powerless to fix it.

  • ianpmcleod Ian McLeod (@ianpmcleod) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @Deligracy No, this is closely guarded but what is wisely known is classifying the NBN as a commercially entity, to keep it off the national books (making them look better) means nodes are up to 500m distant. Upgrading to fibre won't fix NBN pricing (congestion) as a result either.

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

    @Angela60650391 @juliemonry @ABCaustralia With NBN there isn't even that need anymore. I have been receiving gov updates via my mobile phone provider not the ABC at all. All commercial broadcasters ate required to provide community service announcements. Their is no longer a need for the ABC.

  • Mdm_Fahrenheit Madam M (@Mdm_Fahrenheit) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    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.

  • fenham 💧Dave Lazzari (@fenham) reported from Queanbeyan, State of New South Wales

    @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

  • skwashd Dave Hall aka Not Funny (@skwashd) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Hey @andy_penn why won’t you fix phone lines in fire effected areas that will only get satellite NBN? These areas used to have decent ADSL. People can’t sign up for satellite because it’s over subscribed. Looking forward to your field team fixing this.

  • Steve_Pesic steve_outandabout (@Steve_Pesic) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    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...

  • VernVerass Verner Verass (@VernVerass) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • AussieRoz RepublicanRoz #SaveOurABC💧 (@AussieRoz) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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!!

  • Ian__P Ian (@Ian__P) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @ajamesbragg @AlboMP I'd raise the issue of #NBN advertising which seems wasteful and pointless given they aren't retailing to consumers directly.

  • SupSki Sally (@SupSki) reported

    Hi @Optus so when U said U were going 2 suspend SHORTLY... did that mean like when U hit send on that email? I've called you & no answer. 2 frontline workers @ home & so unable to ring in 9-5!! U have always provided **** service @ expensive prices. Glad 2B moving on! #NBN

  • DawnieBrowning Gab @DawnieBee Field Marshal Browning 8% (@DawnieBrowning) reported

    @WitsendClose I'm not having a dig at you Geo - our talk back 3AW has seen Tanning Salons banned, road traffic fines wiped, re-imbursement due to NBN internet issues & I could go on. What has Talk Radio achieved?

  • AuNuke Nuke (@AuNuke) reported

    @vWhitts @DodoAustralia @NBN_Australia Why ******** are you with the shittest internet company out there?

  • deancollins dean collins (@deancollins) reported

    @SeaMist_au @AlboMP @JPLonnieQ The death of the "True" NBN is my biggest complaint. If i was king of the world i would hire someone to follow Malcolm around 24 hours a day and everytime he checked his email this persons job was simply to lightly slap him across the head and say "Thanks Dumbass".

  • TPG_Telecom TPG (@TPG_Telecom) reported

    @PursehouseDale Hi, it sounds like this connection issue is now being handled by our engineering team and has been coordinated with NBN Co for fixing. Pertinent updates will be communicated via call and/or SMS. We are looking forward to getting this issue sorted. -Charm

  • SandyHorne61 Sandy Horne (@SandyHorne61) reported

    Tech issues. Gah! Apparently I have an NBN problem. I have been 'escalated' which sounds much more fun than it is. Meanwhile, I'm not sure if I should go in to work or stay home and wait for this to be resolved. Supposed to be WFH today but I need the interwebs.

  • JTsOnline Messieur Dafuq (@JTsOnline) reported

    @NBN_Australia No signal/service here (Sydney's Inner West), but your website falsely says there are no outages. What's up??

  • bmrow Bront (@bmrow) reported

    isp said the nbn would be down from 7am to 3pm and it's been up the entire time

  • neil_daws Neil Daws (@neil_daws) reported

    @amachin96 @Telstra There are a lot of small companies plugging the black holes of mobile data etc. See if there is a direct WIFI dish option in your area. Direct WIFI dish is better system. Mine is 5G dish to router network pointed at dishes that jump copper. #nbn

  • kingscrossexile d m (@kingscrossexile) reported

    @BelongAU I haven't had any Internet in Marrickville all morning? Is there an NBN outage?
