NBN Outage Report in Byron Bay, Byron Shire, State of New South Wales

@JezNews NBN was never going to work properly

@stuartrobertmp FIX THE NBN!!!

“The staggering sum was highlighted by the nation’s peak body for phone and internet users on Wednesday, in a response to the consumer watchdog’s NBN Wholesale Service Standards Inquiry draft decision.”

@StuartEdser A litany of poor decisions relating to the environment, treatment of asylum seekers, welfare recipients and the NBN

“By next year, the NBN Co has promised to have 8.1 million homes and businesses using the service, with a further 11.7 million ready to connect. However, experts have warned the NBN’s speed and reliability issues will only worsen as more households and businesses connect.”

“However, Internet Australia chair Paul Brooks slammed the report as “self-serving” & “disingenuous”. “Clearly [the NBN Co] have an image problem they’re trying to repair, and that image problem is justified,” Dr Brooks said. Speedtest ranks Australia 61st for broadband speed”

“Mr Mullen claimed that the NBN’s high wholesale pricing would force resellers to “withdraw or go broke”, with consumers ultimately losing out. “The downside of this in turn will be fewer service providers and ultimately higher broadband prices to the consumer,” Mr Mullen said.”

“Labor had spent around $6.5 billion on the NBN when the Coalition took power in 2013, with the government since splashing more than $44 billion of taxpayer funds to create what experts have described as an “obsolete” and “third-world” broadband network.” Arrogant f**king lnp.

@platykitten We're already paying for a substandard service. Let NBN pay the fkn tax

Having a few problems with the NBN. Using the Internet from my mobile.

@OMGTheMess Note they didn't even implement them in a left-wing manner. NDIS has a stupid market model based on our awful jobactive system. NBN had to produce a fat return (partly to repay private financing wtf) and Gonski ensured lots of taxpayer cash went to super-wealthy private schools

@Optus Kartik the #NBN support closes at 6pm, is that a joke??? #Optus #TechFail

My phone and nbn both got shut off today thank you Optus and dodo 🖕🏻 so now im down to using my work phone hahah if anyone would like to help a gal out during this terribly slow month of January I’d appreciate it so much 🥺🫶 BEEMIT Minnie_xo

@OMGTheMess NBN on both sides is a mess. Having it a public entity will suck as governments see horrible when it comes to technology. Now 5G is faster for most use cases then NBN and that has been rolled out much quicker then the NBN was

@hutcho66 Absolutely right, there were so many errors made with the nbn that rests on all sides. Question is now how can it be fixed and how do you convince the pollies that it should be fixed. I thought that when everyone was locked down they would see demand for better uploads, but alas.

@TPG_Telecom Sent you in DM. The issue is still not fixed. It's almost one week now. Your team ordered a replacement WiFi router but now they are saying it's NBN issue.

@TheFeaver 2/2 This outage sadly was an NBN side issue, so impacted all ISP. Services should all be back online now as of about 1pm If there is any issue after reboot of network equipment please call support on 1300 880 905 or livechat via our website Regards, Meg

@TheFeaver 1/2 Hi and sorry to hear! We normally should pass on any outage info via email and Myaussie from NBN so apologies if comms were delayed, I'd suggest calling in case we have some old contact details too
