    PHAARRRRQUE! NBN has been down for hours! And it’s effectively the last couple of banking hours before EOFY! Hot-spotting off the phone it is then.

    NBN on the cheap and submarines that can't go underwater. WTF.

    Still much furniture to be arranged/assembled, and we realised the bed was broken in the move so waiting for new parts from Ikea on the weekend, but we have an NBN connection now so it's all looking pretty good.

    @Optus my 4G broadband at #stafford is so bad. Either that or the @Huawei modem. Not an isolated event. Really question the advertising around super fast 4g. Every night a snail pace speed. #nbn #broadband #nombps #slowinternet

    @geoffrey_payne Yes, it isn't bad for business grade fibre. At home I have NBN FTTP, and the 50Mbps speed. Usually works well. Should be targeting 1Gbps for fibre, though!

    @zyzzyvamedia @Optus Been with @Internode on NBN for two years, never down, always fast. I guess it is some ISP and some location.

    @NBN_Australia @Optus NBN HFC 6 weeks of daily multiple dropouts. 4 NBN tech visits + 1 Optus & the issue is still not resolved. Optus modem replaced, NTD replaced, F-connectors replaced but tech not permitted check the connection on the street. Farcical!

    @emlafudd @Telstra Actually the real scam is when the @NBN_Australia is connected. Absolute shite at my in laws at Albany Creek apparently. Drops out..unusably slow..pathetic.

  • MikeFitzAU
    💧Mike Fitzsimon (@MikeFitzAU) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @NBN_Australia It appears that there’s ”an outage” affecting ”an area” and I’m in the affected area. I’ll get an sms when it’s back in service. I hope it’s not too late because I want to send two laptops through Windows updates before hitting the road in the morning. Not practical over 4G.

    @NBN_Australia It turned out to be an NBN fault further up the road and took a few hours to fix. Rearranged the day schedule around it.

    Ah the #NBN aka National Bumpkin Network ... they didn’t disappoint. Trying to get the NBN connected is every bit the hell I expected it to be. Delivering fast and reliable #internet is not something Australia can get right.

  • samf_66
    Sam (@samf_66) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @NBN_Australia Each time a tech comes out they refuse to check the HFC connection on the street. They say they are not allowed to put a ladder against the pole. After 6 visits nothing is wrong internally so it must be the street connection. 15+ dropouts today. Please help!

    Trying to get hooked up to @Optus nbn... Monday they said, now it won’t be. Ready for two weeks of arguing like last time. Customer service is not at all important to them.

    @NBN_Australia leasing @Telstra copper with @Optus as a retailer is a perfect example of how three providers is not better than one. A lot of 👉👈 finger pointing as to who has the issue all the while the customer (me) with awful internet....#sortitout

  • ema71080536
    💧Ema (@ema71080536) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    What a stupid country we are! The LNP took Rudd’s future-focussed NBN and turned it into two tin cans joined with copper and string. Now a third world 19th century network with snail mail speed. And the voters accepted this rubbish because they didn’t like Shorten! Fools!!

  • samf_66
    Sam (@samf_66) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @NBN_Australia The problem is the techs that are sent won’t check the connection on the street. They change something internally for no good reason and report back that the fault is fixed which it is not. I go back to @Optus and the same process happens again.

  • LesStonehouse
    Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    The Morrison government reminds me of the NBN.. Waste of billions and billions of dollars and almost impossible to fix.. we need another election urgently and we should keep having elections until we get it right #auspol #Labor 🤔😉

    @Internode My internode service died two days ago. You’re customer service guy, Steven was awesome and booked me an NBN tech for today between 8am-12pm.They didn’t show. I called internode again and once I finally got through the call went mute. Help.

    @TPG_Telecom what has happened to the NBN speeds around the postcode 2153? Its very slow for the last couple of days

    @RowanJQuigley @Internode Thank you. Did eventually reach someone tonight. They were lovely but couldn’t solve the problem. Hopefully the NBN tech they’ve booked will have more luck

  • parkeschiavello
    Parker (@parkeschiavello) reported

    @NBN_Australia I do. ALLLLLLLLLLL the time. I need my service to come out of the ADSL ages not even the ADSL8 or ADSL24 ages. Fibre needs to be here. You add EVERY suburb besides this one to your list hence people are rolling out a GPON/XG network. But NBN if I need to get 3 more lines to work.

    @TheRealHoarse @RonniSalt I wonder how Starlink will survive. I rely on this satellite web service, living in a largely defective NBN regional Victoria. Starlink had brought me high speed internet and reliability, which has been a game changer in a Telstra owned small town

    @OMGTheMess The NBN removed the ability for landline phone calls during a blackout.

  • manaz_d
    Robert Hudson (@manaz_d) reported

    Still loving the way that NBN only considered FTTP upgrades as a speed improvement, not a service quality improvement. I'm already on a 100/40 service on HFC, but ineligible for upgrade to FTTP, despite my service being unreliable. $30k+ to fund my own upgrade. Pass.
