💧Le voyageur (@LeVoyageurOz) reported from Cairns, QueenslandAnd right on cue my NBN goes down. That should be a huge election issue. #QandA

Granville#AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, Queensland@roastthekipfler @AusIndiMedia My NBN service over the last 3 or 4 days has been very poor. I did try G4 a while back but that wasn't very consistent either. I am waiting for the arrival of G5 in my area in the hope that may actually work as advertised.

SLAV (@therealslav84) reported from Cairns, Queensland@Halit95429397 @Foxtel I was a customer for over 15 years. After 15 years due to my travel forgot to pay my account I was 1 day late. No empathy no care and would not drop the late fee. So I cancelled. That was full Platinum IQ4, with 4 boxes and nbn. Their reply.... we dont care,

Jake Reid (@jakemreid) reported from Cairns, Queensland@LalitaMathias @JoshFrydenberg @SkyNewsAust Airwaves cause NBN doesn't work 🤡 Gee wizz - we could even stream it live but for copper. How good would fibre be 🤦🏽😡

Daniel Rose (@dgr_dgr) reported from Cairns, Queensland@HansOrph @deccles26 @NBN_Australia @Foxtel NBN outages is one of the reasons I selected @VodafoneAU for my NBN provider. 4G backup kicks in automatically if the network falls over. Worth considering changing to them if you need/want seamless internet

Granville #AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, Queensland@TurnbullMalcolm @rhysam I have to assume you are speaking out of ignorance of technology. PSTN is cat 3 copper with a theoretical maximum of 10 Mbps. And voice calls over my NBN connection are such poor quality we mostly cannot understand the majority.
-
Granville#AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, Queensland@jonesy2794 @TwitterSupport I feel lucky as a restart of the phone seems to have fixed it for now. Or I could just blame NBN as I have also gone to the mobile network.

General Bewbs (@General_Bewbs) reported@Darth_Peachez Genuinely takes me ten hours minimum to download 100gb. It's local news obviously but there's a couple news sites in Australia talking about how a lot of us will be ****** by digital only because of how bad our NBN and wifi still is and how far behind we all are
-
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
-
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".

M H (@Woah2026X) reported@Starlink @SpaceX If you are in a city or suburb with good NBN or 5G, this is a terrible deal. If you are in a remote rural area with no other options, it's a great service - but you should expect to pay $139/month, not $75, and you must remember to return the dish if you cancel.
-
Michael🧙 (@mich___l) reported@sofewcharacters @VoteLewko @2GB873 Yes it is, but Starlink is terrible in cities, built up areas, and areas with lots of tree cover. It degrades pretty significantly in bad weather. It would also be terrible with a cities worth of people connected..... network congestion is a problem for satelite solutions (similar to the mobile network). Getting rid of the nbn network would be a monumentally bad idea.
-
DerKrampus (@gaymilkisgay) reported@ianclarkeAU NBN is not a cellular network - I think your statement is illogical.
-
Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported@Poolwithaswan @viii_nix Labor has been terrible with digital freedom. There was Stephen Conroy and the great Australian firewall during the Rudd-Gillard-Rudd. We were looking at getting a great fibre to the home NBN, that would've been utterly crippled by the government mandated filtering.

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

💜𝕏 CharmsVic 𝕏 💜 (@CharmsYahoo) reported@JaneCaro @AlboMP We need some caution because satellite Starmind will solve the electricity and water problem just as Starlink has solved the NBN problem

Mick Kase (@MickKase) reported@TruthdriverOn Telstra is a dinosaur. The sooner Australia realises this, the better. The NBN has been a sad episode in Australia's history and continues to be. Snowy 2.0 is a disaster and will continue to cost Millions and may not even operate. Federal Gov. is the problem. Are you awake yet!
