Marquis d'Killara, Duc du Centre-Ouest (@pfbt) reported@NBN_Australia Sadly, thanks to Abbott & @TurnbullMalcolm the only NBN I can get is the APPALLING satellite ‘service’. At least once a day, but usually several times a day, the service drops out. Previously reported; NBN ‘tested’ & says it’s OK. IT IS NOT. … 1/2

🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reportedMy @NBN has been down since 9am & they won't come to fix issue till Monday - 4 days (2nd time in 2 wks)! My Telstra hotspotting is weak. Time to hook up with @starlink Issue here is local installer charges an arm/leg etc to install sys on roof etc. I may have to suck it up.

🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reported@NBN_Australia is a joke. For the 2nd time in 2 wks my connection is down - their fault. They can't come out to fix it till next Monday! If I can find a reputable @STARLINK installer in my regional area, I'd be thankful (Jervis Bay NSW). I'm past climbing on roofs these days. Any recommentations? My @telstra hot spotting is the pits.

Junior (@Ilovedaisy66) reported@TopherField Worst decision I made getting nbn. Nothing but issues since installation. Massive lemon. Stay away.

Spiderbloke 🇦🇺🌸 (@bluebristolian) reportedI told people when the Krudd had his NBN brain fart that it would be a colossal waste of money and that the future was wireless, and people told me I was being stupid. I remember the French government and their massive white elephant the Minitel system. Same government stupidity, every single time.

Optus Help (@optus_help) reported@KatrinaLarsen Hey, Katrina. We're sorry to hear that your service is currently impacted by an NBN outage. In the instance that your Optus modem that does not facilitate 4G back-up, our teams will look to provide interim support such as the Optus Internet Assistance Kit. This can be posted or collect from your nearest Optus store. If you hold an Optus Prepaid or Postpaid Mobile service, please don't hesitate to send through a Direct Message, and we can look to apply some Mobile Data to support using your Mobile as a Wi-Fi hotspot in the interim. - Dillon

Michael Timbs (@michael_timbs) reported******* perfect. Set up some remote spot instances to distribute some compute. Set up Claude to monitor and tear down when finished. Quick health probe to make sure everything is fine, about to log off for the night and NBN outage hits immediately. Could not be worse timing
-
Mike Dupont (@introsp3ctor) reported@JDRedding new books network, they discuss a book about those topics. the nbn is an academic podcast sponsored by gambling and pharma industry that snickers and laughs at plebs and avocates for the violent overthrow of the government. its a great listen if you want to know how people think.
-
Aussie Phil (@phil_aussie) reported@SenatorWong We cannot even get NBN to come and fix a broken connection on a telegraph pole🤔
-
anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported@MichaelRuyg apology would be nice, no chance of a refund. despite larger ISP's being forced to refund people on fixed wireless who paid for service speed nbn could not deliver, my small one was not included in that settlement.
-
🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reported@desmondbratcat @nbn @Starlink In a sense its not the ISPs fault, its the NBNs fault. The problem as per last week, an NBN tech came out to connect someone in my complex. Seems he unplugged me at the pit. I don't know why we still have ISPs when they just default to the NBN to come out & fix the issue.

purana (@purana) reportedAfter close to 7 months.. my mum finally got a working FTTN NBN service before close of business today.
-
LCHF Matt (@LCHF_Matt) reportedUpdate. Dodos from NBN came back to tell me it’s my fault and nothing to do with them. Well! Problem solved. It will not be because of them come Thursday, Starlink install day.
-
Doug Hendo (@DougHendo) reported@TopherField The NBN started in Broken Hill my refrigeration systems on the towers where the only ones running when it hit 45c. They rang me up and said how come mine where the only one still working. Because I used Temperzone Australian Airconditioners with adjustable head preasure I increased. I didnt tell them all they had to do with the other was remove the thermistors off the head preasure on the American systems.

🌸 NameXComrade (@namexnotblank) reported@EmmasLastStand @MickamiousG I built my house. Owner/builder. In a remote area. I'm using starlink. No nbn access or phone service. I hired plumbers, electricians, builder, concreters etc. They all have bank accounts. I paid electronically. The only reason for them needing cash is tax avoidance. Fraud.
