  @strangerous10 @AlanJMitchell_ Yep. And Canberra complaining about the privatised Telstra is like me selling someone a second-hand car and hitching about what the new owners did with it. I’m serious. And we should surely have enough computing power to know now how the sharemarket dabbling went for those “battlers” who bought Telstra shares as encouraged by the privatising PM John Howard. After taxes, accountants, inflation, fees & Telstra’s bad (or deliberate?) policy choices around the National Broadband Network, my guess would be: not that well. And speaking of the NBN, remember the smart nodding and talking heads saying we wouldn’t need this much capacity etc. Be a few archived interviews from that era that will not have aged well. The same equation repeats throughout history. 1. “This is ridiculous” 2. “It has some uses” 3. “We’ve always supported this! What are you talking about.” Progress moves by the death of generations, as much as by technology. My parents hated ATMs. Didn’t trust them. I don’t trust the thing I’m writing this on. Children now will one day look back on such antiquated things as hand-held devices and “wonder how people used something so clumsy”. Etc

  @ArtistAffame That's not bad. The only option I have where I am is Fixed Wireless. Essentially 4G/5G cell tower and fixed "antenna" on the roof. NBN service via iinet (TPG). Given the distance from the tower I only get a portion of the theoretical maximum throughput. Costs more than your plan.

  @ianclarkeAU @CovfefeDnUnder Mate, you're talking to a @Starlink customer... I use it on the Gold Coast, and I'll likely never go back to the NBN, even though I can get fiber, largely because I refuse to pay for something that is intentionally outdated. Outside of the cities, #Starlink is the answer.

  Our @optus NBN internet/Phone service problem has been fixed. My mother can watch online movies and music videos on youtube. The internet is her only source of entertainment

  @pigways @Batman2242 What? Fttn was cheap to install but severely limits revenue and has a massive maintenance costs which means it can never make a return on the investment. It's why #nbn convinced LNP to provide additional funding and begin the free upgrade to fttp.

  @strangerous10 We already own the NBN, so why can't emergency services be run directly by the NBN?

  @UrbanHubbard @Batman2242 Turnbull botched it. The original fibre and fixed wireless sections of the NBN were worth doing. Switching to Fibre to the Curb was an expensive mistake that has already needed replacing in most areas. This isn’t a left/right issue, and that’s not my point anyway. You missed the core of my post. The NBN was and still is a good idea. It just needed far better design than the “back of a napkin” version under Rudd, and Turnbull shouldn’t have messed around with the plan the way he did. I worked with people who installed the cabnets during the transition and saw exactly what changed inside them. With over 20 years in the IT industry, I know what I’m looking at. My actual point is that comparing the NBN to Starlink is unfair. It’s like comparing the entire fixed telephone network to mobile phones in the 1990s. Mobiles were revolutionary, but they didn’t replace the fixed network they complemented it.

  Finally bit the bullet and got Starlink installed. Highly impressed, the speed and stability runs everything beautifully. We haven’t had a single circle of death anywhere. No more dealing with the shortfalls of NBN lines, poor workmanship and dodgy patchwork repairs. In our exit survey from the old company I let them know the reason for leaving was the poor service the NBN infrastructure can provide, and now that customers have another choice we aren’t limited by the failing system. Highly recommend the switch if you have been considering it.

  @rakeau @ianclarkeAU I have wireless nbn, it's pretty bad but much better than nothing. Starlink would maybe be cheaper and better but I think the price will go up so not switching just yet.
