    @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

    @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.

    Worst NBN plans and providers revealed in new report Biggest scam going way to much for any internet way over budget way over cost.And to have Telstra run makes even a bigger con job .. Good one Rudd you fool ..How much Rudd

  • Granville4879 Granville#AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of 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.

    @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,

    And right on cue my NBN goes down. That should be a huge election issue. #QandA

    @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.

  • KateHamilton88 Kate Cunningham (@KateHamilton88) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    Let me guess @Telstra you want me to call your incompetent staff again... HOW ABOUT FIX THE PROBLEM NOW!!!! 2000236045330 otherwise I'm taking my 2 mobiles (BYO), NBN and foxtel to another provider..

  • SFynmore scott (@SFynmore) reported

    @Aussie_BB hi, is this an NBN wide issue because my nbn modem can't connect

  • johnny_doe2010 Johnny Doe 🔻 (@johnny_doe2010) reported

    @edwardatport 🤔 The is the polar opposite position that NBN have taken since 2013... HFC 'bus' network, upstream is literally crippled. Fixed Wireless Plus removed spectrum from the upstream channels to boost downstream. FTTN on degraded copper can't be modified, dying as we watch...

  • ScaryBeastEagle Scary Beast-Eagle (@ScaryBeastEagle) reported

    @SpinTelAU Hi, are the NBN service issues in southern Tasmania going to be resolved tomorrow?

  • fmcheater fmcheater (@fmcheater) reported

    Something for my #australian friends that is @NBN_Australia related: did you know if something tries to connected another #nbn #internet provider to your premise, YOUR connection will be TURNED OFF WITHOUT NOTIFICATION?! INSANE! @NBN_Australia @tpg FIX THIS!🤯🤬

  • some_sense Janey (@some_sense) reported

    @normboy562 @AlboMP Yep they would have destroyed superannuation and have done a pretty good job of destroying the NBN and the NDIS. People have to wake up to the damage they have caused over the past decade. Labor must enunciate this clearly before the next budget and as part of it, so people hear.

  • SFynmore scott (@SFynmore) reported

    @Aussie_BB Hi Lizzie, I'm on the phone to Kylie & I need someone from the nbn to come out & visit. Looks like that outage broke something for me 😔

  • LiquidWIFI Liquid (@LiquidWIFI) reported

    Internet has gone out, seems to be a big outage involving a lot of different ISPs so probably linked to NBN If it comes back at a reasonable time I’ll stream but there’s not ETA
