@RossFloate My old ISP keeps calling me about how I MUST move to the NBN; after I quit their **** service and extracted $100s from them over how they handled the last 'you MUST move to the NBN' call. FFS... @Telstra_news

Day 4 with absolutely no internet connectivity on NBN's FTTN. In parts of @stemplemanmp's electorate, the pits which "protect" the copper cables and joints are full of water and not draining. If only there was a solution to the decrepit remnants of the obsolete copper network...

@Brixchip819 @MorpheusBeing @QuentinDempster After 7 months of trying to get Satellite NBN to work I gave up. The TIO got me a complete refund of all money I had spent on the NBN. I went back to Telstra ADSL 2 and though slow & on 60 yr old copper, it is more reliable & much less latency. I may try Starlink next year?

Australia is a hoax
(@migrantlaw) reported
Australians are being taken for mugs about #broadband and #NBN. Now based in Portugal (not Germany, Japan or SKorea) I have 200 down 100 up + 140 TV + landline for about AU$65 p.mth. Could get 1Gb/200 + 170 TV + 2 mobile nos for $120. Mind you, TV is mostly crap.

@MorpheusBeing @QuentinDempster Contact the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman (TIO) they get a response from your provider, my satellite provider was rubbish very slow, lots of latency and dropouts. The technology for NBN Satellite service is rubbish and the advertised performance is never achieved #NBNfail

@QuentinDempster I had woeful fibre to the node NBN in Fremantle, Western Australia. I had regular outages a few of which saw me without internet for a week or more. I now have an excellent fixed wireless service provided by a local company.

😭 my internet NBN has been so bad this past week that every stream has crashed at least 2 or more.. & it's just so disheartening to see as I try to stream, but good news - I am changing service providers from Optus to @Aussie_BB where i heard great things about! fingers crossed!

@smellersaurus So bloody dodgy. In the time I’ve waited for resolution to connection issues, I managed to get a 1gbps connection installed by Aussie Broadband in a house that had never been connected to either phone or nbn before. I’m ropable.

@QuentinDempster My nbn satellite with current provider in remote area is crap. I pay for 25/5 and rarely get 5/1. Says nothing wrong and that is how it is. On contact to end of January when swapping provider.

@QuentinDempster @vesica13b When it was installed the NBN techie said not to expect much as the cables between my house and the node (1 km away) were some of the worst he had seen. When a sports event is on (like State of Origin) my line speed drops into the 200-500kbs range as people stream it.

Communications Minister @PaulFletcherMP says when pandemic hit 98% of Australians were able to connect to NBN broadband. He damns @MRowlandMP ALP current NBN fibre to the premises policy as undeliverable. Digital economy infrastructure should be a major election issue.
