  • jasondrennan71 Jason Drennan (@jasondrennan71) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra why is @NBN_Australia so slow tonight at 2.75kbs. Woeful. Two hours and still can’t download a movie that runs for same time.

  • bittenbydesign Bitten By Design (@bittenbydesign) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @alexwantscoffee @NBN_Australia Exactly my thoughts. And no amount of help from the service provider is going to change the amount of users on the node, or as you say, magically turn the copper lines to fibre optic.

  • bigtruth2 hometown hero (@bigtruth2) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra Got this message today “Hi, you recently contacted us about the Internet issue on your NBN Service. We believe this is now fixed” Guess what....STILL NOT WORKING!!! #australiasworst company

  • ian_booth Ian Booth (@ian_booth) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    Farrrrrrkk! When Fifield is questioned about the price of #NBN packages the best he can come up with is "they would cost more under Labor". It just rolls off their tongue so easily. "Take longer under Labor ", "cost more under Labor" and they're never questioned. Shits me.

  • bigtruth2 hometown hero (@bigtruth2) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra are just plain hopeless. Have been trying since May to fix a Telstra “error”....up to call 46 and each time assured it is fixed. Even have emails saying fixed but still NBN speed 0.002!!! World class!!

  • NigelBill Nigel Mullen (@NigelBill) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @exetel @chuggins9000 @NBN_Australia Thanks Rehan, but it is not an Exetel problem, all my neighbours have the same problem. NBN Co decided not to deluver high speed internet infrastucture to our Adamstown Heights area.

  • gjblue Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @JaneCaro @Telstra The whole nbn is a joke, mate who works for them told me ours will never be any good because the copper goes thru a flooded pit at the end of our street.

  • bittenbydesign Bitten By Design (@bittenbydesign) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @NBN_Australia It’s directly related to the ‘fibre to the node’ loading, that can’t be fixed. Nor can the crap quality of the telephone lines in this area be totally replaced easily.

  • DrCraigGedye Craig Gedye (@DrCraigGedye) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Internode once again our @NBN_Australia connection is out because it has rained. Please fix the physical connection to our house. It is NOT a problem in our house. It is a problem with your ancient corroded copper network. Please repair immediately.

  • Type217 Dean Hanilton (@Type217) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    Been a glorious 3 days with the NBN down. Apparently Telstra are going to actually show up today. It’s been kind of nice tbh.

  • NigelBill Nigel Mullen (@NigelBill) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @NBN_Australia It is not a fault. It is a NBN design issue. If a house is 1.2km in cable length from a Node, can they expect 80mb or more in connection speed. Very simple yes/no answer is all that is required.

  • shootin4love Liam O'Neill (@shootin4love) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Vic_Rollison Gees, we probably still wouldn't have an ETS by now, a 2nd rate NBN and a system which favours the rich and blames the poor and unemployed for wearing those ugly old Vinnie's clothes. Wait a minute

  • bigtruth2 hometown hero (@bigtruth2) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra another day goes by and still not resolved......June 26 and no NBN. Entirely Telstra problem when by mistake they put “restrictions “ on the account but it takes forever to lift them. BTW was in credit when restrictions where wrongly imposed

  • wifidownunder Aaron Scott (@wifidownunder) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    Another 12hr outage from @telstra NBN. This is ridiculous. Maybe at some point I’ll have internet again.

  • lazytraveldays Lazy Travel Days ✈️ ⛴ 🚘 (@lazytraveldays) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @adamajacoby NBN intentionality shit to benefit Murdoch

  • commiexcx Ray 🐑 (@commiexcx) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    Big **** off to telstra for somehow making my first gen nbn (fibre to the house baby!) slow as all hell

  • Type217 Dean Hanilton (@Type217) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    Almost 2 hours got get Telstra Big Pond wombles to reset the NBN password. And I know what I’m talking about ... good luck if youre not network savvy. No I don’t want to use your shitty router, I want to use my good one

  • debra_mcgrath Debra McGrath (@debra_mcgrath) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @heatherewart1 @SwannyQLD @abc730 YES the NBN is my weather gage, whenever it's going to rain the NBN goes down

  • mkentwell Bigots be gone (@mkentwell) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @RavnilRanjay @ScottMorrisonMP There is a projected possible potential surplus... And then only if all the unicorns fat at the same time. This is a surplus like the NBN was a solution #fraudband #fraudsurplus

  • bittenbydesign Bitten By Design (@bittenbydesign) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Cummins7Robert @SBSNews @ScottMorrisonMP The LNP is just being the attack dog controllers for Murdoch. Murdoch and his father were and still are hell bent on killing off the ABC and anyone not on their payroll. Look who is pulling the strings. The LNP did similar shit for FOXTEL by stuffing the NBN to make Netflix bad.

NBN Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BruceTabor8 Bruce Tabor (@BruceTabor8) reported

    @RichardfromSyd1 @AlanBixter Ours is also permanently flooded. The NBN wont do anything as internet access is still working, but our complaint was it overflows onto the footpath, causing mold and a slip hazard.

  • ruthiepikelet "MS. POIROT"❤️❤️❤️ 'Tis the season to care. ❤️❤️❤️ (@ruthiepikelet) reported

    @AlanBixter Commiserations. We've had a usual week with NFI [no f**king internet] due to 'planned' NBN outages. We are never notified. It can be for 12 - 24hrs. It's shite.

  • iko_iko11 IkoIko (@iko_iko11) reported

    @AlanBixter Don't feel special, the pit at the bottom of our hill looks like that too after every storm; when they take take the two big steel plates off it. It's a much bigger pit that serves half of the long road I live on. Guess Telstra/NBN never heard of watertight service pits.

  • garland_paige Paige Garland 😃 🕯📖🦘🌳🇦🇺🌏🕊 (@garland_paige) reported

    @AlanBixter When they installed our NBN the didn’t cap off the conduit and wire from the electrical pit, which is like yours. Feb last year it flooded like a tap through the external wall of our house. A formal complaint (with persistence) got them to plug the conduit, to stop the flood.

  • joewintergreen Joe Wintergreen (@joewintergreen) reported

    Internet's been down for like 10 hours. Officially registering my displeasure with @NBN_Australia

  • AEddy6087 Jereddy Grant (@AEddy6087) reported

    Man. I hate Telstra. Been telling them about a fault for SIX MONTHS and now a week before Christmas they act like they found the fault as if I had never told them and expect me to take days off work during my peak period to wait for an NBN technician. Zero consideration for me.

  • FlashVvV James Stobes (@FlashVvV) reported

    Conroy's first interview back on Sky after his creation NBN had a $31 billion taxpayer funded write-down yet not asked about it. #TheRitaPanahiShow

  • nlarkin_photo Nathan Larkin (@nlarkin_photo) reported

    Dear @Optus:.. Your #nbn service is terrible.. Thats All!

  • janinesymons sleigh the patriarchy (@janinesymons) reported

    @wheels002 @AlanBixter i've had to fit a surge guard to my modem and nbn box because a power outage caused by storms would blow the nbn box. and then i'd have to wait days for a new one.

  • seansmith_au sean saran smith (@seansmith_au) reported from Adelaide, State of South Australia

    I hate Australia’s NBN. Current speed is 2.4mbps. I’ve had constant problems with Iprimus. Ongoing for 7 weeks. Sick of contacting call centre. Thinking of breeding pigeons as an alternative. @iPrimusAU #nbn @NBN_Australia
