NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Peter Dewar (@PeterD84508) reported@TheNoisyTrunk @Caitlen2310 @arbsmichael At a time when the network needed to be upgraded to optic fibre Howard sold off Telstra to the people that already owned it. The cost to build the NBN should also be included in Howard's debts .

Strata Owners Alliance (Australia) (@strataownersaus) reportedThis should NEVER happen. We have written to the federal minister and the NBN objecting to this and to clarify their total expenditure here. This data was all procured directly from the SCA 2026 Conference Sponsorship website page. (7/7)

GdayM8 (@BlackHillCraig) reportedYou're partly right - we don't have a free market. The market here is heavily distorted with gov intervention. Inflation is cause by increased money supply. That inflation affects everyone - including grocery stores, NBN providors, health funds. They must pass those costs down. Fuel is also subject to inflation in addition to the fuel crisis. This impacts input costs for many businesses, not all, to varying degrees. The only thing that causes market wide inflation is Gov.

๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฆ๐บ (@DanielSMatthews) reported@eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

Aussie Christian๐ฆ๐บ๐โ๏ธ (@MAustraliaGA06) reported@RennickGBR My issue with point 3 is that for the last 2 decades, there hasnโt been one federal project that was delivered on time and on budget, every single infrastructure built blew the budget completely. So itโs just more spending. Snowy hydro, NBN, inland rail, hunter frigate etc

David Lee (@Stoxxie) reported@Liberty_Itch @DavidLeyonhjelm This is an incredibly poor editorial on the NBN. A waste of my time in reading it

Raymond McKeown (@RaymondKeown3) reported@Kate3015 We Also built TPG & Vodafone's networks, however, my point was really Albanese raced up to Singapore begging for oil, Optus is owned by the Singapore Govt. They will not be pleased. And for the record, we built the very first NBN site at Kiama, I met several times with Conroy, he is a fool. We walked away, I said let everyone else beg for this, we will pick up all their other business while they are ******* with NBN, Conroy had no idea of the concept of Fibre, nor did his management, they were all Guys I had worked with at Sun Microsystems, not one had ever built a network. Conroy went against advice & lost $800 million on a Satellite project, the Indonesians grabbed the flight space.

Scott ๐ฌ๐ง๐ฆ๐บ๐บ๐ฆ (@skinthent) reported@ruicharadrius If your wifi is bad, get a different AP. It is exactly the same wifi standards used globally. Or do you mean your internet connection? That isn't wifi. I have FTTP NBN. It works fine.

Mr Happy (@JohnSmi63567221) reported@MrKRudd Like Rudds NBN $60,000,000,000 and counting cost to tax payers plus 70-90 monthly cost to use. Starlink ZERO cost to tax payers,get it anywhere, pay between 40 and 70 a month. No one wants to hear your ideas. **** off

Tolly ๐ฆ๐บ (@TolsonKiefer) reported@stevehearne7 @arbsmichael @Marilynrules1 A portion of Telstra was sold for $45b and the rest put into the future fund, totalling $54b+. Telstra is worth $62b right now. This was an excellent deal for Australia. Kevin Rudd introducing the NBN has nothing to do with Howard and Costello and it was also only $11b. Idiot

GregM (@Gmeister67) reported@WSWanderingEels @ardmorelad Yep Aus govt also own the NBN network who mainly use the Telstra network, amongst other smaller players. Everyone gets a drink
