    @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.

    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..

    @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

    @_Gaffa_ @DoctorKarl and that's not to mention the increased latency by nature of being a satellite service (even if its much better then traditional satellite internet) and the reliability issues of switching between satellites. star link defiantly has a place, buts its not to replace the NBN.

    @PaulFletcherMP Poor kids. School can be tough enough without dodgy, irrelevant pollies they've never heard of trying to convince them to think the way they think. May your NBN connection be constantly dropping out.

  • MeckeringBoy 🇺🇦🌿Mike Dowling-NO new Fossil Fuels! (@MeckeringBoy) reported from Westfield, State of Western Australia

    @WillWillAFR Most of the rest of the world is ahead of us. Pulling up LNP IPA unstable powered nodes & installing fibre to the premise as Labor was doing before Murdoch LNP IPA destroyed it, is costing us TENS OF BILLIONS more. I’m surprised how little media attention this gets. #Patchy #NBN

    @DodoAustralia @NBN_Australia Hi Dodo team, your broadband services are not working at my place. Any issue? Thank you

  • Lias89733971 Lias (@Lias89733971) reported

    NBN-Nick Ross @NickRossTech former tech journo for the ABC followed this, wrote his sincere analysis of it, its flaws. He was told to tone it down, after a complaint, allegedly, by the LNP govt. He eventually left the ABC. This was under the Turnbull govt from memory.

  • cameron_hensley Cameron Hensley (@cameron_hensley) reported

    Yet another outage with @Telstra this week, now only to be told wait for another three days, woops. This is not good enough, for Australia's most expensive NBN carrier. Get your **** together.

    @JoshBrogadirTV I trekked down to The Amory in NYC when my then high schooler competed at the NBN. Boston is lucky to have 4 banked tracks.
