NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Richie_Night Owl (@richardmelb05) reported@Optus Hi Jay, I dont think you can assist me, one of your optus colleagues has told me by phone, nbn is having an unplanned outage, nbn isnt saying how long it will last
-
Marty (@Martywa467) reported@Prowerock1 @VoteLewko @Starlink I myself ended up with a Telstra 5G modem also. It just shows that NBN was not the way to go. Even back when they decided to go with NBN it was obvious it was dated technology and for Australia it has never delivered the service it needs.

Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@Juzira You really should get Full fibre NBN History does not support that view, except in Hansons micro fringe cult & within Murdochs LNP Crime Org.
-
Simon Biddle (@simonbiddle) reported@taipan168 Many corporatised, but publicly owned, entities provide great service. NBN is pretty good for example. Even Australia Post isn’t bad. Govt doesn’t have to equal bad and is much more preferable in monopoly and quasi-monopoly environments.
-
alicefarquharson (@alicefarquson) reported@oscarcsims also very confusing policy/reg space. govt essentially renationalised Telstra infrastructure in leasing a bunch of its assets to the NBN. yet Telstra still runs emergency services, payphones, landlines - not NBN. minimal economic incentives, maximal telco corporate welfare
-
Andrea (@1963amh) reported@SharkaByrne @newscomauHQ I paid extra to keep it at the time, so it would be accessible when nbn goes down. Or so I thought. Not sure what I paid extra for ( possibly another outlet )but it didn’t work, totally useless when it’s down. So much for progress.

Lamill (@LamillLoL) reportedConstant internet drop outs for weeks, network status always says no outage. Currently down and no end in sight. I need answers!! @NBN_Australia
-
Powell's Other Glasses (Ausnotes) 🌸 (@ausnotes) reported@88888sAccount Best to wait till Telstra or the NBN is down again and then really rub it in the face.
-
Scott Nixon (@MrBrokenEyes) reportedUmmm. I don’t mean to be “that guy” but, has anyone else noticed that the #EmergencyAlert test seems to have, ya know, crashed the internet in Australia? #NBN is down everywhere. Phone internet seems to be okay. This could get interesting.

אריאל בן אברהם (@AM_IL_CHAI) reported@HilzFuld @NefeshBNefesh I am a master electrician with open Aliyah application but cannot find job. The paperwork NBN referenced is outdated about ten years! HELP!
-
KR (@keenkellie1) reported@FinancialReview Seriously just take the last two major projects snowy 2.0 and nbn you get cost blow outs, inefficiency and poor returns, instead of your retirement money compounding at 7-10% in the best companies on earth what could go wrong

iamfee (@fairies4one) reported@Batman2242 Our nbn network is a joke!

Wil Burston (@wilburston) reported@OMGTheMess Twice the ALP voted down Howard with forward looking telecoms infrastructure 1. Mid 80’s when universal ISDN connections were proposed, aka digital telephony 2. Early 2000’s national CDMA network covering 99% of the landmass for IOT devices Then we were mandated the NBN…

Nicholas Gilbert (@gilbongw) reported@AlboMP @narendramodi Operating 7/11 stores, NBN linesmen and service stations. Hey but what about your electrict vehicles as you put it? You buy everythink from China, that’s a bit unfair to Indja.
