@ecobard @oliver_phil @CassyOConnorMP Yes. Unfortunately in my case the NBN (ta LNP!) is unstable and frequently non-existent where I live, so I have an office in Deloraine with fibre to the premises that is slow but consistent so I can see clients and students on Zoom. I'd love to work from home.

.@NBN_Australia My service is out because of maintenance in the area. This has to be the 5th or 6th time in the last 6 months. I work from home permanently. Why can't you schedule this maintenance for a time outside of office hours?

@deank88 @Optus We've had massive issues with our nbn phone system today with regard to dropouts with another carrier today. It's been a huge hassle.

@Accessdenied_03 Hi there, we're sorry to hear that your service has been impacted. Unfortunately, power outages are related to the power grid, and nbn must work with power authorities in regards to their restoration ETA. 1/2

@NBN_Australia It came good later before I got that far, so I can’t tell now. Sometimes it’s just one my routers getting tired but that wasn’t the problem yesterday.

@andy_penn Hi, wondering if @Telstra & @NBN_Australia can cooperate to track who attends peoples shared street pits. Looks like a Telstra guy damaged our NBN ,he was aggressive when I asked was he from Telstra, he could be a liability. Now NBN have to fix , am currently on chip

(@AnnettaMallon) reported
@NBN_Australia Thank you. Telstra (not our provider) has an infrastructure monopoly and refuses to build another tower to service the Meander TAS village area despite urgency. I am writing to the ombudsman regarding this problem, and if you can help in any way that would be appreciated.

Optus
(@Optus) reported
@RamiJeaitani Hi Rami - we’re aware of an issue impacting some Optus nbn customers in NSW (Ref#24465712). We understanding connectivity is important and are working to restore services asap. We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience in the meantime. Guy

@acmadotgov The math: A $60/month plan for 12Mbps is the cause of slow internet. $70/ month for 24Mbps. $90/month for 50(45)Mbps. All tapered by the NBN backbone. No mention of upload speed because it’s useless.
