  • LeVoyageurOz 💧Le voyageur (@LeVoyageurOz) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    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

    @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..

  • dgr_dgr Daniel Rose (@dgr_dgr) reported from Cairns, State of 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

  • MoodsMoody Moods Moody (@MoodsMoody) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    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.

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

  • ishaan451 Ishaan (@ishaan451) reported

    @NBN_Australia I’ve reported this multiple times. NBN has not provided them any updates. The issues are being caused by your maintenance.

  • SallyLawry 💧Sally Lawry (@SallyLawry) reported

    @PatsKarvelas @Magpie1954nBird Ah good old LNP NBN . Cheap , unreliable and just a tad similar to the vaccine roll out . Outsourced , no accountability and never ending problems .

  • 00crunchy00 00crunchy00 (@00crunchy00) reported

    Hey @TPG_Telecom are services down in 3012 again? No NBN, second night this week...

  • stephengentle Stephen Gentle (@stephengentle) reported

    @PeterCronau @4corners Not surprising. They have their plants in place. Gavin Morris I believe was the same person who screwed Nick Ross for the crime of truthfully reporting on the problems with the Coalition’s NBN policy before the 2013 election (accurately predicting the disaster that ensued).

  • cherryjn Cherry Haughey (@cherryjn) reported

    @NBN_Australia still waiting on a PRD to fix our lead in cable to our property. 3 weeks and no sign of anyone

  • wurzelofoz Chris Jones 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@wurzelofoz) reported

    @DeanRosario The Mrs got vacinated two weeks ago, and our NBN has never been quicker. Coincidence?

  • real_xye xye (@real_xye) reported

    @Optus @Dalfernious We want to be polite but Optus is providing customers with terrible services either for mobile or nbn internet. You can’t expect people communicate with you guys nicely.

  • drob_andrew Andrew Drob (@drob_andrew) reported

    Get your house in order @NBN_Australia. You cancelled my appointment as you say my NBN issue is fixed but my upload speed of 0.1Mbps and 43% packet loss proves otherwise. Been three days now without service! Failure of a National Broadband Network. #nbn #failure #aussiebroadband

  • RuncibleH Captain Nemo's Left Sock. Sewer Rat. GSPs rock.🐕 (@RuncibleH) reported

    My NBN connection is down to 174kbps. Must be Saturday.

  • kiwiinvader andyroz (@kiwiinvader) reported

    @PatsKarvelas Better add my nbn gripe here I suppose. We literally JUST got the nbn (Sydney North Shore), and I got a text from nbn today telling me it will be down for a day next week while they fix it. 🙄
