    @sunrisesister @hazelblackberry Oh yeah. You can probably drop down to a fairly cheap plan. I’m on unlimited, top speed NBN — but I use it. We Stream nearly everything in my house. Sometimes other half will be streaming Netflix in 4K in the media room while I’m streaming on my iPad.

  • 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.

    @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

    Just resubmitted job application before @NBN_Australia went down again for no reason. Reset isn't working. Luckily I have 4G Android phone.

  • bdyling
    Benny Ling (@bdyling) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    The good news is, the apartment I purchased off the plan has FTTP. The bad news is, it’s not NBN FTTP, it’s some “LBN Co” FTTP, whom I have never heard of before.

    @NBN_Australia Service is back up and working but just interested if this kind of damage will affect it in the future but I can’t seem to get a response from @NBN_Australia at all other than to reject any request my provider makes. That is not “as soon as possible”.

    @ClaireLouse2403 @cheryl_kernot @bugwannostra yep. in the same way that: - the start of the initial NSW 'lockdown' was pushed back to allow Hillsong event attendees to leave the state & country; - the NBN FTTH backflip aligns nicely with Foxtel now offering a BINGE service that, to be successful, requires more bandwidth. 😐

    @jdaalder No for weeks on and off. Twitter especially but certain websites. Tv streaming is fine which suggests this may be an NBN traffic priority issue

  • 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

  • lissyvz67
    Lissy (@lissyvz67) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Is it an #optus tactic to make getting something fixed so difficult that customers just give up? I've had no nbn since 16th February and no one at #optus seems to care or want to help her the nbn working again. My son works from home. This is just not acceptable.

  • PoE_fanatic
    James Smart (@PoE_fanatic) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @NBN_Australia I am still a little meh but I can work again now that I have a negative 'rona test. I have been in contact with Belong but as it's an intermittent issue, they're having trouble diagnosing the problem.

  • wildnez
    Rahul (@wildnez) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @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?

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

    Unfortunately @NBN_Australia is down again so I have to reschedule appointment to get it fixed via @exetel

  • iambenslater

    @AKtech2021 @Telstra Can’t :-( Only have the Telstra Cable NBN Service in our area :-( sucks.

  • 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

    @adamajacoby Australia post is only poorly, run to get NBN level bonuses you will need to damn your nation to an internet ghetto.

  • JaseTheAussie
    Jase Smith (@JaseTheAussie) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Why does is my service listed as no outage detected when the fibre up the road has been ripped out between the nodes? @NBN_Australia

  • mr_mouse
    Mr. Mouse (@mr_mouse) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus is the a known issue with Fetch streaming? I’m on Optus NBN and have no issues with any other internet/streaming services. Streamed channels not reliable, on demand (e.g. BBC catch-up) not working at all. Done soft reset, still broken.

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

    @NBN_Australia We have no alternative as there is no way to contact you directly even though this is your issue, my provider has been given no updates for 7 days.

  • 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.

  • pigways
    pigways (@pigways) reported

    @Batman2242 Much worse. Starlink is an infinely better service; higher speeds, low latency. NBN satellite cross subsidy alone is more than a starlink subscription. NBN satellites are EOL, they've contracted Amazon's Kuiper for replacement rather than proven starlink 🤪 They hate Elon

  • R4dicalCentrist
    Richard (@R4dicalCentrist) reported

    True. NBN Co is the picture of efficiency and never suffers outages or coverage issues.

  • purana
    purana (@purana) reported

    The latest in the NBN FTTN connection request for my mum is they are still valuating what changes they need to do on network to connect her. Basically NBN didn't project plan things correctly with the nearby street re-alignment.

  • 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 🧵

  • DK_Flipper
    Pauly D (@DK_Flipper) reported

    @KatyKray73 NBN, steered us through the GFC trouble free, dismantled Howards work choices rubbish, introduced paid parental leave, biggest increase to pensions since federation, funded the digital education revolution, withdrew all Australian troops from the Iraq war....

  • orstraya
    Orstraya (@orstraya) reported

    @FarCueCunce Contractor for NBN Co. My olds were hooked up 10yrs ago and while they used the existing Telstra conduit to the house, the inside install was terrible - left a big hole in the wall behind the NTU, which let spiders into the house until I found it years later and patched it up.

  • 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?

  • wally_waldo83
    Wal (@wally_waldo83) reported

    @Batman2242 A big part of our productivity problem is that starting from the 2010's more of our spending now goes to megatech platforms that extract Australian revenue without the old local multiplier. When $100 went to Ford or Holden, a retailer or a local media company, a large portion recycled through local wages, suppliers, property, logistics and tax. Now when $100 goes to a global ad platform, streaming service or cloud provider much more can disappear offshore through IP, reseller fees and related party charges with far less local employment or supplier spend despite the use of infrastructure like NBN and roads. So government keeps importing demand and taxing workers harder to fund services while more private spending leaks offshore to low local footprint platforms. That extraction is not productive for our economy and is increasingly an issue, especially when profits are being offshored and Australian taxpayers are unfairly carrying the burden.

  • DoodyDarren
    Darren (@DoodyDarren) reported

    @ianclarkeAU @CovfefeDnUnder The NBN cannot do it now, but the optic fibres it uses can. Only the gear at either end changes. There is not a wireless system in existence that could carry the existing load of the NBN, let alone future needs. Talk to a network engineer, please.

  • BrowntownBrew
    Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @basespanker @Batman2242 That was a fttn upgrade with Telco support, but libs called it fraudband due to the minor upgrade so it got scrapped and years later the #nbn was formed to rollout fibre to 93% of premises. LNP got in and decided to do fraudband
