NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Darren (@DoodyDarren) reported@DryFarmer24 @EnergyWrapAU The "accountants" for the NBN were spot on. The price per premises had begun to hit target right before Abbott shut it all down to put in his "multi-technology mix" crap. Most RE and battery projects hit target costs, too. You really don't pay attention, do you?

alex (@alexB00683977) reported@ShackelWill @JoSmith05406728 It’s Labor’s miserable ghost Turnbull who was in charge, same blowout happened with his other failure the NBN. If K Packer hadn’t provided his financial support which later he regretted Turnbull would be just another punter. Kerry had nothing good to say about him.

Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported@impalethevlad It doesn't work like that when the entire business park NBN is down and many thousands of people are suddenly trying to find cellular workarounds.

Communal Noodle (@Communal_Noodle) reported@eevblog NBN stands for "No Bloody Network" sometimes.

Tony D (@tonydpoison) reported@Slackonbothsydz NBN. Treach was a problem.

Berry Straw 🍓 (@ddnnddc) reportedACMA is NOT currently running a spectrum auction for LEO satellite broadband. In December 2025, ACMA decided against auctioning a large amount of expiring spectrum. Instead, they chose to renew the licenses held by mobile operators and NBN. Their reasoning was that auctions could disrupt existing services and slow down new technologies like low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Amazon's Project Kuiper is coming to Australia in mid-2026 through a major partnership with NBN Co. This will give Starlink its first real competition in the country, especially in regional and remote areas. This is generally good news for consumers because more competition usually means better prices and redundancy.

James (@consensusadidem) reported@schaeffer_phil @DavidCrisafulli Nothing to do with the NBN, that was a matter of national security an essential service, EVs & chargers are not, they're a boutique luxury. How many EVs are there in Yamba & how many chargers are there.? How far apart are they? I'll bet: 1. very few; 2. as above; 3. not far.

Therealstevethebeast150 (@Therealsteveth1) reported@7NewsSydney Well, it would help if builders didn’t put the NBN box in the ******* cupboard,
-
Robotfix 🔰🗽🇦🇺 (@Robotfixx) reported@ruicharadrius State owned NBN is ****. As opposed to SK’s network (fastest in the world) which was privately built out. It’s already cost 50 billion dollars (if your money btw) and is climbing
-
MR Reilly (@mrr78504) reported@econoadabsurdam @LeeRespecter The NBN might plausibly have increased productivity if it had retained its original scope (A FTTN fibre backbone network independent of Telstra that would allow telecommunication companies to compete on an equal footing). Instead it got rolled out first in Tasmania.
-
Tony Hughes (@ArealHughes) reported@AlanBixter Our communications infrastructure system is not good enough. After the Turnbull NBN debacle and massive cost blowouts we still have inferior IT infrastructure. My internet is slow but works OK, however ph reception is woeful and I'm 40'ks from the coast of seventh largest city.

Ad Bull (@Adakole2Francis) reported@Chude_ND1 @CCSoludo If e sure for them make they try this kind nonsense where NBN dy do their national Convention. Kegite is never and has never been a violent group.
-
Grant (@grantbuttenshaw) reported@disco___cat The NBN is the fastest network in the world

King Neptune73 (@bartoni73) reported@Telstra @NBN_Australia when is my internet going to be fixed? I have been awaiting resolution of the issue since March 3, 2026. I have had 6 appointments cancelled because you allege you fixed it remotely! That’s BS!😡😡😡😡

Stew Harris (@sjharris) reportedHey @Aussie_BB, why have you charged me today for a cancelled NBN service????
