    @NBN_Australia There has been a ticket raised for 7 days and still you are not able to supply an ETR, this is unacceptable and very poor service. Ive been left with no alternative but to raise it with the TIO, sadly that will be Telstra’s issue not yours, but I need a date this will be resolved

    NBN. Meant to enhance productivity. Meant to be nation building. Great idea - terrible implementation. Instead we have a second rate system - slow and unreliable #fibretothehome #shameLNP.

    @optus HUGE MASSIVE THANK YOU for being the provider that got our NBN installed in less than a week!! No text messages back and forth for 6 weeks just damn amazing service! @Telstra 6 weeks of bullshit text messages vs 1 week and NBN installed #yesoptus

    @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?

    A friend of mine who teaches at Griffith has been told her NBN is down for 2 days. Teaching and research up the spout. Of all the idiotic decisions @TurnbullMalcom took, screwing up the deployment of Australia’s internet was one of the biggest. Truly awful

    From $55 down to $19.99 on release, Turnbull’s memoir is depreciating faster than the NBN

    @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!

    I have been seeing your “My shitty NBN is down” tweets all week and thinking “Heh, mine’s never missed a beat.”. Update: My shitty NBN is down.

    @AussieBecka @stufromoz I finally got through! Turns out it's an NBN issue. Technician booked for tomorrow morning!

    My NBN is down and Vodafone won't pick up 😭. It's ******* Friday, this is not how I wanted to start my weekend.

    @lindsywood7 @JessxSeven @JessxSeven are you not on NBN? You should be on at least 20 up if you're on a 50 or 100 down plan.

    @MadFckingWitch We’re the country who believe the GFC never happened, that the ALP stimulus package was worthy of an austerity plan for the last decade and that the ALP NBN was a huge waste of money! Yep- saving lives and eliminating the CV is definitely a leftist ananda.

  • Brentus88
    Brent 🤜🏻🤛🏾 Davidson (@Brentus88) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Aaaand the cycle starts again. @telstra visited, confirmed it was an @NBN_Australia issue & took detailed notes & photos of speed tests which rule out modem issue. Said I’d need an NBN tech visit. So instead today, naturally, I get a text from Telstra saying all is fixed.

  • GrahamSmith111
    Graham Smith (@GrahamSmith111) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    I am no fan of the NBN but the further investment of $3.5 billion defies logic. 5G is coming with very quick download speeds and cable infrastructure. It’s pouring good money after bad. You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.

    Just Bullshit Malcolm, and you know it. You demean yourself trying to justify the total shit/fight NBN you created under the orders of the Mad Monk. You appear to have been enthusiastic in doing so. You will wear this like a wreath while you remain in this Forum.

  • chrisbrownjade
    Chris Brown (@chrisbrownjade) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @abcnews "Starlink's performance is "significantly better" than NBN Co's satellite service, according to a telecommunications analyst". More like Starlink blows Sky Muster out of the water, and that's with only a small number of total satellites launched so far 😳

    Alastair Taylor (@tayser82) reported

    @OperationalInc1 Whenever the NBN low-earth orbit satelitte service kicks off (Amazon's burgeoning network), the backup should switch to that. Aside from some parts of inner Perth/Melb/Syd/Bris, all of the rail network is on the surface and will be able to uplink, I would have thought.

    @realRick_AUS I've just been fishing 50km down the vic river in the NT. Starlink had better uninterrupted reception than my NBN at home in the middle of Darwin. The NBN was yet another Labor scam on the taxpayer.

  • Patriot__au
    brad 🇦🇺 (@Patriot__au) reported

    @leftright314 The nbn was dead before it even started. Putting a 1970's tech in the ground in the 2000's was retarded. But now we are going to waste more money trying for peak retard. Putting up a 3rd rate satellite network with a bloke who rockets blow up before launch. Typical labor.

  • Deevitha_
    Deevitha (@Deevitha_) reported

    Finally bit the bullet and got Starlink installed. Highly impressed, the speed and stability runs everything beautifully. We haven’t had a single circle of death anywhere. No more dealing with the shortfalls of NBN lines, poor workmanship and dodgy patchwork repairs. In our exit survey from the old company I let them know the reason for leaving was the poor service the NBN infrastructure can provide, and now that customers have another choice we aren’t limited by the failing system. Highly recommend the switch if you have been considering it.

  • DissentingS
    DissentingSkeptic (@DissentingS) reported

    Speed is latency. No satellite connection is "high speed" sick of the disinformation. Starlink is 20ms-40ms+ latency like mobile garbage is. NBN is a whopping 600ms latency. They need to keep this junk away from fibre areas where I get 2ms latency and have had since 2022.

  • bcg1976
    Not for you (@bcg1976) reported

    @BilsonhBilson The public can buy it if they want. It's a public company. I wouldn't with starlink cellular about tk come online. Just like I wouldn't have bought it's copper network off it for the NBN. How has that public turkey worked out?

  • purana
    purana (@purana) reported

    All I want from an RSP is suitable communication on why the service cannot be connected, and the timeframe in which the condition stopping it from being connected resolved. How hard is it to get decent feedback from the NBN co processes.

  • Mezmarr
    Mezmarr (@Mezmarr) reported

    @NBN_Australia Working hard! More like hardly working! It's been nearly 24hrs since it went down with no updates, no notice of what's actually wrong. NBN being government funded as well, is so ****!

  • WarkickBrown
    Warwick Brown / CEO of HTMX (same thing) (@WarkickBrown) reported

    @eddit0r @OperationalInc1 Hey wait, if I live in an estate/apartment building that has non-NBN fibre and Telstra don't sell services on it, and I call them to order my USO-guaranteed home phone service and they say no, can I sue them?
