    @SoloVideoGamer I keep hearing of these NBN issues from hundreds of people. Only ever had 1 issue and that's when we 1st got connected. No upload speed. 😂 Now I get a constant 94/37mbps unless of course someone is downloading lol

    @Telstra your customer service team is highly incapable, get rid of them. My new NBN order has been revised 4 times already without my input. And now the technician’s visit date has been changed without any notice. Are you guys interested in signing up new customers at all?

  • caskings
    caskings (@caskings) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Hey @NBN_Australia how does one get your support team to take the wet weather into account for FTTN faults instead of just waiting a day or two for the joint to dry out and close the ticket?

  • pedrocamargo
    Pedro Camargo (@pedrocamargo) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @NBN_Australia, I have already accepted that broadband in Australia will be worse than most mid-range developing countries. But do you also have to lie to us on maintenance/issues? Why?

  • editsmithy
    Bradders (@editsmithy) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    How frigging stupid is this, I actually work from home full time and now can’t due to the poor service by @NBN_Australia and @Telstra So good lucky anyone thinking of working from home due to the virus and using NBN - 8 days so far and no resolution and no ETA on a fix

    @SRC10127084 @SatPaper Morrisons LNP, neglected so much and with the rest like Barnaby created long term damage to government systems and services! Medicare, Infrastrucure , Vehicle, Renewables, Communications eg NBN Mobile networks, defence, what else?

    @MrKRudd Imagine how much good could of been done with 40 billion write down from the NBN you sold us. Lot of hospitals, schools and work opportunities for first nations there. Still got the napkins?

  • JestaCat
    Paul M (@JestaCat) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Netflixhelps @92_saif @NetflixANZ And ... Definitely NOT using a VPN or proxy, and have not changed any settings anywhere between NBN and couch since last night. Help!

  • damienpbuckley
    Damien Buckley (@damienpbuckley) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @JimRHoughton *******. It’s like the 70’s all over again. The only reason they’re putting nuclear forward as an option is because it will buy the coal industry another 10-15 years while they build a reactor. Then they’ll have to go renewables anyway. It’s the friggin NBN redux

  • duttonkona

    Been 2 days without NBN in Mansfield qld. Silence from @optus but they confirm there is an outage.

    Optus mobile and nbn slow tonight

  • teamallen
    Mark (@teamallen) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    You’re hopeless @Telstra and you @NBN_Australia. Had cable, no issues. Got nbn unlimited with a speed boost, costs more, slower speed, drops out regularly and buffers watching Netflix.. customer service non existent!

    Unfortunately due to @DodoAustralia's service today's stream was Broken and had to be cut short. Gotta love being promised Internet speeds you're not receiving~ #australia #nbn #dodoaustralia

  • MonBLeaves

    @MingYLong @Telstra @NBN_Australia I agree the service levels are so appalling for everyone

  • PagewoodCoach
    Rubens Camejo (@PagewoodCoach) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @BreakfastNews Talking NBN: Pine Creek, NT. Half way Darwin - Katherine August 2021 needed to apply for a Qld entry pass. Not even the local library could open Qld Govt website. If Cessnock is bad, Outback communities are medieval. Cessnock? Election priority? Hunter seat?

  • dgr_dgr
    Daniel Rose (@dgr_dgr) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @SteveMolk @VodafoneAU What? I have to check mine. That's dodgy. And now I feel awful because I recommended you to voda NBN didn't I??

  • laciheiter
    Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus Thanks. I have had several conversations and chats with customer service. I stopped reporting the issues, as it’s mainly nbn issues and it’s really frustrating. Paying $70 a month for the service you can hardly use is just outrageous. Text messages coming through advising outages

  • dwightwalker
    Dwight Walker (@dwightwalker) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Found @NBN_Australia is down and there is a 16 min queue on @exetel call centre for tech support - I will use 4G till it's up again

  • lorrainewhat
    lorraine (@lorrainewhat) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    The NBN is brand spanking new but two to three times a week I get a text advising they're doing emergency repairs in my area.

    Scheduled power outage and NBN outage. It’s a very Amish Monday morning.

  • phil_aussie

    @SenatorWong We cannot even get NBN to come and fix a broken connection on a telegraph pole🤔

  • GarfieldR1966
    Garfield C. Reynolds (@GarfieldR1966) reported

    @NBN_Australia sure enough this problem still isn’t resolved. Outage page has been showing us as facing network degradation all week. Regular dropouts and slow connectivity. Will you ever fix this???

  • alicefarquson
    alicefarquharson (@alicefarquson) reported

    @oscarcsims also very confusing policy/reg space. govt essentially renationalised Telstra infrastructure in leasing a bunch of its assets to the NBN. yet Telstra still runs emergency services, payphones, landlines - not NBN. minimal economic incentives, maximal telco corporate welfare

  • tsport100
    Evans Electric (@tsport100) reported

    A guy moved into a new apartment. Only “official” internet was FTTN NBN — $90/month for a pathetic 30 Mbps down max. He called Telstra and Optus. Both said “5G Fixed Wireless not available at your address.” He checked a cell tower map anyway. Half a dozen towers within a couple km. Bought a GL.iNet GL-X3000NR 5G router + built a DIY 4x4 MIMO LPDA external antenna. Result? 800 Mbps download / 170 Mbps upload. 25x faster. $75/month. Same building. Here’s exactly how he did it 🧵

  • BrentHodgson
    Brent Hodgson (@BrentHodgson) reported

    @geofiasco @DHughesy @aaronsmith Aside: Whether the Telstra sale was ultimately a windfall is contested. It raised $60bn to sell the assets, then we spent $60bn on NBN Co just to regain access to the assets sold and duplicate/upgrade the network we sold - and Telstra has paid something like $80-85bn in shareholder dividends along the way. In many respects, NBN shouldn't exist. It should have been the $80-85bn in "shareholder dividends" to the Public Owner that paid for the fibres to be laid - not a $60bn investment after a $60bn sale. But NBN was forced to be created after a now-shareholder-owned Telstra responded to how it might build a national broadband network with a non-compliant 12 page letter effectively saying "we won't - the copper wires are our privately-owned monopoly and we want to protect our market monopoly".

  • ianattheherald
    IAN KIRKWOOD (@ianattheherald) reported

    @strangerous10 @AlanJMitchell_ Yep. And Canberra complaining about the privatised Telstra is like me selling someone a second-hand car and hitching about what the new owners did with it. I’m serious. And we should surely have enough computing power to know now how the sharemarket dabbling went for those “battlers” who bought Telstra shares as encouraged by the privatising PM John Howard. After taxes, accountants, inflation, fees & Telstra’s bad (or deliberate?) policy choices around the National Broadband Network, my guess would be: not that well. And speaking of the NBN, remember the smart nodding and talking heads saying we wouldn’t need this much capacity etc. Be a few archived interviews from that era that will not have aged well. The same equation repeats throughout history. 1. “This is ridiculous” 2. “It has some uses” 3. “We’ve always supported this! What are you talking about.” Progress moves by the death of generations, as much as by technology. My parents hated ATMs. Didn’t trust them. I don’t trust the thing I’m writing this on. Children now will one day look back on such antiquated things as hand-held devices and “wonder how people used something so clumsy”. Etc

  • pfbt
    Marquis d'Killara, Duc du Centre-Ouest (@pfbt) reported

    @NBN_Australia Once again our useless service is dropping out. Thanks to the destructive & stupid @hontonyabbott (NOT Hon.) & complicit @turnbullmalcolm some of us are stuck with the useless satellite service. Years of promises of fixed wireless or something but … NOTHING

  • CtrlAltDwayne
    Dwayne (@CtrlAltDwayne) reported

    @loftwah They didn't even finish the NBN 1.0 so it makes sense. One of my mates had an NBN contract and he got paid stupid amounts of money and he said he'd finish by 2pm, took long lunches and could push appointments by saying he was too busy. Zero oversight. Huge rort.

    Hayley Katona (@HayleyKatona) reported

    @Fiances_ We’ve improved the state of every property we’ve rented (built gardens, mostly). But yet, rent goes up and up and up. Currently dealing with a $300 bill for installing an NBN fibre box inside which increases internet speed 10 fold, and the landlord is making us relocate it for the amazing low price of $770 (wants it moved 2 metres down the wall it’s on). Ugh
