NBN Outage in Pipe Clay Lagoon, State of Tasmania

@MikeCarlton01 So between Turnbull and Morrison they have delivered the two most costly blunders in a Australian history in the Submarines and the NBN, all from the better money managers wtf

Just some advice from recent experience to anyone signing up for NBN fixed wireless If the ISP says the speed is limited to 25 mbits down tell them to do better or go away You should be able to get at least 50mbits with a good connection at around $70, and unlimited data

@mana_sean Don't take any **** from these people I put up with telstra for years If NBN provides up to 50 mbits you have a right to have access to it There is lots of competition

@DrKrissyH Just gotten too slow — and don’t offer the higher tier NBN plans

@shanselman This is trivial in Australia, as our NBN (“national broadband network”) hardware has 4x ports for that specific purpose. No idea for the USA though... 🙃

@NickRossTech @NBN_Australia My FTTN is crap. My ADSL was faster.

Exactly, exactly, exactly! If the Labor NBN had gone through, it would be finished by now, NBN FTTP would be there without copper wire problems and, I cannot go on about how bad this decision was. And the cost of FTTP would have been equal to this mess. @TurnbullMalcolm

Wow an NBN outage down till Sunday 6th October!!! It's school holidays and teenagers are struggling. Oh books and outside look good @Telstra

@OptusSport We'd love to enjoy @OptusSport however our @Optus nbn is down for 24-48 hours 👍

@NBN_Australia @Farmgate138 I like that “experiencing some issues” have had NBN for some years now. We quickly found the baseline service was crap and upgraded to the next level - which is great when it works, but reading the fine print, NBN only warrant it will work for 2mins annually

@Optus @NBN_Australia Currently on hold to Optus & online chat. We’ve been told the relocation request we put in doesn’t exist, even though it is in multiple chat threads with Optus who said they’d arrange this. They recognised that our service was previously working, just not with the speed boost WTF

@NBN_Australia An update: called @Optus who transferred us to @NBN_Australia who then told us that there is an outage in the Sandy Bay (Tasmania) area and that the internet would be on in 4 hours (9pm last night). 9pm has been and gone. Standard troubleshooting, eg reboot hardware, etc & nada!

@NBN_Australia 1. These slow speeds are common across different service providers in the district. 2. The many times I’ve pursued this topic it becomes a duck-shoving exercise: NBN Co. says it’s the service provider; the service provider says it’s lack of capacity at the NBN tower.

@BevanShields @AntonEnus "But has no modelling to support the claim" Just like Direct Action emission reduction or the cost of ALP NBN or the $660billion ALP debt blowout etc etc #FreePassToBS

NBN is now trying increase its wholesale prices, and thereby retail prices, for its **** product blaming increased competition from other forms of suppliers. I thought the capitalist model claims that increased competition leads to lower prices?

@NBN_Australia Worst customer experience I’ve ever encountered. Message on 23/4 advising would resolve in 7 days. Message 2 on 3/5 requiring another 10 days then feedback survey on 16/5, which I completed. Posted on Twitter on 20/5 with escalation team, yet still no update 😡

@redruby17 We've been having trouble for months.... TPG have given up sending daily 'NBN' repair & emergency repair updates. Isn't the FTTN internet just grand? Especially when copper cable keeps getting flooded.

@HenryTheEgg @KirstyLNeedham You have half an argument here. The Port of Darwin issue was 100% a bad decision. But on Huawei, the government blocked telcos from using them ( not just NBN, but all telcos).

@theage @zoesam93 Our new government has inherited an infrastructure debacle that will take time to fix. Increasing the cost of access to the #NBN is wrongheaded.

@Optus 1/2 1. Your service has been more than disappointing this year, with constant service interruptions. 2. Brisbane 4103 post code been experiencing NBN outages for the past 3 days (Optus service anyway) To point 2 it is more irritating that it is intermittent it would

@smh @zoesam93 Dear @NBN_Australia — simply put, do better! Your network deserves to be shown up for the joke that it is. It was barely good enough and then incrementally delivered to lesser and lesser standards.

@Richard81199310 @Pentanet_ISP Sadly looks like it was a marketing ploy only. I too was looking forward to saying goodbye to poor nbn but 12 months later here we still are…

< tiny proportion of NBN installations: places so remote that there was no other option. I live just outside Melbourne and it’s the only NBN ‘broadband’ service I can get. Of course I switched to Starlink when it became available. The problem isn’t competition, it’s that the >

@Bedeapk Look I don’t have a huge problem with the NBN, it’s certainly not the worst 50b the government’s ever spent. But pretending it had long term economic viability was delusional. I recall at the time that people were warning 5G & satellite wireless would do precisely this
