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

  • 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.

    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

    @joshgnosis as much as I'm loathe to support a m*sk product or privatising key communications platform it's probably not a bad idea for nbn to replace sky muster with outsourced leo services at some point. don't think they could justify an leo constellation and....

  • btckr Barry Tucker V (@btckr) reported

    @kity_katz LNP solution: Sell up & move to somewhere where the NBN speed is better.

  • cheerscobberta Chook Pen (aka moot button)🐓🐓🐓🐓 (@cheerscobberta) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @MrKRudd Imagine how much good could of been done with 40 billion write down from the NBN you sold us. Lot of hospitals, schools and work opportunities for first nations there. Still got the napkins?

  • Kobayashi_AU Tyson Clarke (@Kobayashi_AU) reported

    @NBN_Australia The issue is the half baked initial rollout from Malcolm Turnbulls government. Nothing can be done until my suburb is upgraded sometime in the next 20 years.

  • tertius_keen Mark Randall (@tertius_keen) reported

    @JEChalmers Built where, infrastructure support to the states gas,water,electricity,police,fire,ambulances,hospitals,roads,schools,nbn. How are we reducing material and labour costs. Oh I get it middle income taxpayers struggling with interest rates and cost of living.

  • theking_otter who am I? (@theking_otter) reported

    @NBN_Australia I know there is an outage. I don't want to be told to contact telstra or check the outage page. Why have I had no internet since before midnight and when will it be fixed? 3135

  • mike_rowe Mike Rowe (@mike_rowe) reported

    @Telstra Ha no. I was just saying how decent Telstra 5g home was compared to the terrible NBN offerings.

  • BrowntownBrew Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @LeeSMaz @7NewsSydney @NBN_Australia The LNP wasted the money and 10 years after ordering nbnco to build a crap network. Nbnco eventually asked them for more money to convert the copper to fibre as fttp is the only reliable and profitable part

  • xrpadastra Ad Astra 🪐⭐️✨☀️ (@xrpadastra) reported

    @ScomoCchio I use Telstra, no issues with them. There is also a SIM card in the box that will connect to 4G if the NBN goes down- quite handy if you WFH

  • YugNivek Yug Nivek🐀 (@YugNivek) reported

    @PaulSargeant15 NBN... what a pile of garbage! Obsolete before it was started! Australia's NBN is an international joke! My ADSL2+ was faster. I bought a Premium service, never got speeds anywhere near what was paid for. A few weeks back I got a sorry message they dropped my charge by $5.
