    @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.

  • 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

  • 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..

  • 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.

    @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

  • 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.

    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

  • therealslav84 SLAV (@therealslav84) reported from Cairns, State of 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,

  • keywest2002us Doug Gardner (@keywest2002us) reported

    @karendumas @DTE_Energy I just listened to the July 13 nbn. Where they said the bad weather and rain was a 100 year storm. Act of God. Not Conner creek having no power

  • daniellittledev Daniel Little Dev (@daniellittledev) reported

    @andy_penn This has been an issue since before the NBN was even constructed. You don’t need them to tell you what speeds they can provide, you need to test it when it’s connected, and regularly test connections to ensure they don’t degrade.

  • libertydownundr The Aussie AnCap (@libertydownundr) reported

    @zioreturns Yeah, it's almost as if the NBN is ****

  • econ_hill DulwichHillEcon (@econ_hill) reported

    @finbaromallon @myriamrobin The copper network is actually massively unprofitable for Telstra to maintain and run under the now USG. Because post NBN few customers are on the legacy copper - highly sub scale and only in the 8% of premises where NBN has not laid a fibre cable, and uses satillite tech

  • Dragonator_The 🏳️‍🌈 Jezz||Relinthia 🏳️‍🌈 (@Dragonator_The) reported

    When youre internet dies and disconnects you from vc and makes your friend sad that you left without saying goodbye.... Stupid NBN... Thankfully I was able to message them when I realised it was down. Almost 20minutes later. I am a dweeb.

  • maystation4 Steve May (@maystation4) reported

    @iiNet @NBN_Australia Apparently it’s my responsibility to ensure you both talk to each other about my ‘ticket’ regarding no service when it’s windy. IiNet can you please talk to nbn, because apparently it’s up to me now to ensure you both communicate. What. A. Joke.

  • corruptagenda David, what the Fk Aust dont vote for the LNP 🖕 (@corruptagenda) reported

    @colonelhogans Problems with the LNP version of the #NBN

  • zioreturns Zioreturns #BoomSqaudron #Treasurefriends (@zioreturns) reported

    @libertydownundr **** tony abbot at least the labour nbn had fibre and not copper but nooooo we need to use copper to save money the ends up using fibre anyway after copper speeds are **** **** you government

  • mfsampson Mike Sampson (@mfsampson) reported

    @elee_bella Wow. How is that an acceptable answer!? Damn NBN. :(
