@NBN_Australia Hi I do understand what's unplanned incident is. Only suggestion is if you could put a status update and estimated ETA that would be great.

@AlboMP Fine. Will you rebuild the ABC? Aged care? The NBN? Australia's broken international reputation? #auspol

Took out my main dlink 24 port switch see if I still get some connection issues since I think that 3 port cyberdata one I have dedicated to my camera POE switch may be having issues. Anything else is waiting to see what the nbn tech finds at street level tomorrow.

@TelstraPurple I had to go into. Telstra shop to tell them my problems & get assistance. The system went down, lucky it was saved in email but still waiting if employee registered my issues when system up and working. Getting charged for things not advised or an old line moved to NBN.

@NBN_Australia I appreciate but they themselves check the same page. Looking at your experience you could classify the fix as small, med or large and put certain timelines. Take some ownership instead passing the buck.

@andy_penn I’ve just been told that there will be no @Telstra NBN service for a further two days in my area (bayside Melbourne) - so that’s 5 days with no service @3AW693 (including no back up service). I can see why you get paid the big $$$ - doing a stella job!

I'm on a 100/40 @NBN_Australia plan. My provider, MATE, tells they're giving me a free "upgrade" for six months. Downloads bumped to 250 mbps. What they didn't say (support email/call required) was that uploads would dropping to 25 mpbs. Bigger fries + less soda ≠ upgrade

Thanks @NBN_Australia and @dodo, ive been moved in less than 4 days and already my NBN is broken. Stellar reliability (not). Why bother paying for the highest package possible when it doesn't even work?

@R_Chirgwin @joshgnosis Earth leakage detectors (RCDs) trip a lot as neutral isn't always the same potential as earth up here. We also found the original NBN installer had left copper to the exchange connected to the house svc drop so ADSL service could be restored. Big lightning antenna. Disc'd now.

@NBN_Australia NBN website says "An unplanned incident is affecting the network" since 9pm last night with no ETA on a fix and my service provider keeps pointing me to the NBN outages page. Postcode is 3047 for FTTC.

@NBN_Australia @TPG_Telecom can you help with this?

@GuardianAus Think of all the hours of labour lost through the Morrison Government doing things on the cheap. Every time you ring Telstra about a blown up #NBN box, they make you go through the whole trouble shooting process first, even though you know what the problem is (again). #auspol

An expensive disaster. We’ve had the NBN box replaced twice. Techs say problem can be fixed but the govt went cheap: McDougall was concerned it could happen to others and cause fire. Guardian has heard another household in Blue Mountains had to their device replaced eight times.
