@Coffeedaveoz The #LNP is the physical manifestation of Abbotts NBN….slow to arrive, well over budget and irrelevant. A #libspill can’t help that.

@cheryl_kernot @BreakfastNews Pray tell how last week when nbn was down and the mobile networks smashed…someone can go online?? Clown idiots safe in their gilded towers.

New wrinkle: further inspection shows internet speed has dropped from 50mbps to 4 with no observable in-network cause. What is even happening. Are NBN/TPG shenanigans behind all of this?

@KetanJ0 Compare with my previous wireless NBN, where there seems to be a single uplink that can die. If a power outage exceeds the battery backup, you're stuffed (though I hear they're working on hybrid solar-battery setups which would be great).

@ScottRhodie @NBN_Australia My theory is it will never change. My MIL once said "Why have a dog and bark yourself". 🙄

Anyone else getting tech service appointments bumped by NBN or is it just @TangerineTelecom’s shocking customer service? I arranged relocation with #Tangerine for 3 March and they said it was activated, but DSL light on my modem wasn’t working, so apparently it was an #NBN issue

@Telstra 9/3 had internet issue, an nbn tech attended, but at same time a guy ‘from Telstra’ also called to help. Pc compromised & bank card has been used for suspicious activity. Could be a fluke, just can’t believe the timing of the call. Hope it’s not an inside job.

@Aussie_BB any update on the unscheduled @NBN_Australia outage affecting 2234 Menai and presumably other locations? No internet since 11/3 10:50pm.

@ScottRhodie @NBN_Australia If they don't change it, they can ignore those problems. Also, the more you solve the more calls you will get.

@ScottRhodie @NBN_Australia Holy **** mate why was your phone number ever there?? Also, my NBN is glitchy in either very hot or very wet weather can you organise a tech visit for me? Thanks.

@MeganLeePhD Had that experience due to lack of NBN, resorting to hotspotting. Its been a critical service for awhile now. Pity so many still lack either a service or a quality service

@PvtBobble Problem is that if iinet can't provide the service they promised, I have to either put a new development application in for NBN which costs thousands or just have Telstra ADSL installed charge at $40 per 15 minutes of tech/installer time that can take up to a day or more.

So #Tangerine booked an NBN call-out for a few days later....but they made it for my old address (doh!) When that date passed, Tangerine booked a second NBN appointment for Wed 9 March. NBN never showed, later - according to Tangerine – citing health and safety reasons...

@hula_grl @Darthspoog Resilience is a system attribute. We have broken systems designed to let for profit operators in. Fragility and unreliability built in by design eg NBN, social support, even current building regs and appalling flood plain devlp plans. No risk margin, no contingency allowance.
