NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
blank (@olwidula) reported@robb_j_m Outside the urban centres, $139 a month for Starlink. NBN for me was a slow and expensive skymuster satellite. Thanks Elon.
-
Duchess of Exeter 🌏 (@WhosFibbing) reportedThe three telcos and government-owned NBN Co were left reeling when the regulator rang to notify them of its final pricing decision – a token $20m reduction to renew spectrum licences essential for carrying mobile signals. ACMA’s decision will result in the sector collectively paying peak market rates of $7.32bn to roll over their existing spectrum holdings as licences begin expiring from 2028. Much of that cost will find its way on to customer bills. More inflation incoming!

JoyOz (@HJoyOz) reported@Ben_Davison1 I paid for my own education and the government never sent me a fully trained employee. The rule of law…. Yes men are women in law. Roads, Rails, NBN (massive cost) gas water bla bla - we pay for that… it didn’t magically appear without our tax funds, we also pay continue to pay for this and budget blowouts. Civil society - do you live in Melbourne?

Max (@diss_presso) reported@BrowntownBrew @robb_j_m Most of our national capital Canberra is on <100mbps whilst literal 3rd world **** hole islands, without NBN or paved roads, get triple that. Anyone who actually believes in the NBN is as brainwashed as a Putin supporter. Starlink has made the NBN largely redundant for non gaming purposes, and the 5G network is already 3 times faster and both cost taxpayers exactly $0.00. Rudd should go down in history as the king of morons.

Mary Spy (@mez_spy) reported@AjaxXanthe See if you can get extra mobile data from your provider. We had an NBN issue a couple of years ago & not sorted for more than 2 weeks. We could get additional data on mobiles or a dongle for home
-
Carmel Fay (@CarmelFay) reported@robb_j_m Starlink. A satellite connection through the NBN in our rural area was a bit of a nightmare. Starlink is reliable, no limits on usage, and we never get throttled. I'll never go back.
-
Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@M_McCormackMP @SkyNewsAust No Michael, that would be another stuff up by your deposed Crime Org catastrophe. The Deposed LNP Crime Org, have never been good at creating or building things: their only good at assett stripping & rorting things created by Labor Govts. Think Snowy Hydro 2 & Libs nobbling NBN
-
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)

ExoticSpice (@ExoticSpice101) reportedI’m thankful I have NBN Fibre but even with that I will never use cloud gaming. why would the local computing die anyway? This AI craze will die quicker than the computer. Phones and laptops still need to be need built. What’s going to stop is that PCs will no longer be cheap
-
GR (@larrikinstreak) reported@robb_j_m NBN is free, the ISP is where the charges are and believe it or not it's customer support is why it costs much. The infrastructure costs are not the big cost.
-
Kathy Mewton (@tatduckum) reported@Cranky_Old_Guy @aaronsmith I guess the huge debt Libs left , this will help . Explain how would you pay off the $1.2 B debt Libs left On top of that your buddies left $350 B AUKUS NDIS out of control NBN blowout Robodebt debt Snowy blowout $31 B Inland rail blowout I will wait for your solution
-
Ferrousoxide (@Ferrousoxi29174) reported@highbrow_nobrow @Acyn Can we put this charlatan on mute. His NBN fix was a disaster. His hydro scheme also a disaster. Shut up Malcom. You are clearly an imbecile.
-
paullyj57 FMD **** AUST (@paullyj57) reported@australian Err. NBN IS A TAD BIGGER probably 200 billion down the drain. Turnbull and KRudd and government suck
-
RocK_M (@RocKM16827690) reported@fuIIcreamy @robb_j_m Nah sounds more like "Libs screwed me over but I'll blame NBN coz thats what Libs told me" issue since the poster is likely on the overpriced Wireless NBN which was half arsed on roll out That or just someone spouting **** to keep the whole NBN was a waste of money crap going

International League of Nations (@ILONations) reportedRemember: • The NBN cost blowouts • Murray-Darling billions • Bushfire reform promises • Previous “fuel security” fixes Big headlines don’t always mean structural problems get solved. #AusPol #Infrastructure #EnergySecurity
