  @techAU @robb_j_m It didn't work for everyone. I'm 1.5km by road from my exchange and yet everyone here has ****** wireless NBN, which manages to be both more expensive and slower than Starlink, with somehow higher pings than sending a signal to space and back. Everyone has Starlink here now.

  @BamBam0667 @EnergyWrapAU No, nbn has cost far more due to LNP. LNP original costing: Promised $29.5B (2013 election); revised to $41B in Strategic Review. The evidence is that in the caucus , as detailed in Turnbull’s book, Abbott simply wanted LNP to be contrarian about nbn. They stopped the fibre rollout and replaced it with copper. At the time, LNPs message that nbn would go over budget was favoured due to a complicit media. For instance, when the ABC science editor did a comprehensive comparison between labour’s FTTP and LNP copper, the report was spiked until after the election, due to ABC management wanting to appease LNP. Then, under LNP, ABC did not have a science editor. Consider the subsequent dearth of reporting by ABC in following years about the biggest infrastructure project ever. Consider that Turnbull appointed a former business associate to be chair of ABC whilst a Director of NBN snd whilst a ceo of a supplier to NBN with a $100m contract for design and fabrication of copper based distribution boxes, which have subsequently been removed. So there is no surprise that the public were force fed the line that all that glitters is copper. The reality set in when the deterioration of the copper network became apparent to punters. The cost of NBN is now at approx $50B with $54B to 2030 to due to the replacement costs of LNPs copper systems with fibre. So Abbott and Turnbull cost the country many billions not to mention the years of misery and lost productivity by prolonging the copper network.

  @ItsMissShorty @osborne_sam @robb_j_m What you said is not controversial. We’re trying to understand what you mean by “wifi” being unnecessary. It’s ambiguous. I think you mean NBN Fixed Wireless. Or perhaps 4G/5G telco service. Or Starlink. Or even connecting to your neighbour’s wifi network. 🤷

  Been trying for weeks now to get a NBN service (FTTN) connected for my mother. But TPG who she was with, and who she had service moved with just gave her the run around. They said it was provisioned, yet no DSL sync light and trying to get that resolved went in circles.

  @robb_j_m I got nothing, NBN has killed all the independent providers that serves my community. I now get about 10mbps max through the mobile network if lucky.

  @osborne_sam @robb_j_m Not your reply. Weirdos be replying to me, then blocking me before I can even reply. What in the actual ****? Semantics. I don’t need NBN. Or any kind of home wifi service. My mobile data suffices.

  @asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.

  @KatyKray73 1/2 Now, Katy, you have to remember that Labor across the country is good at announcements. That they never carry them out is beside the point. In Qld Miles had a 'Labor back of coaster' (remember Rudd and NBN) idea that Labor would have state owned/run petrol stations.

  @robb_j_m Never used NBN. Use a much cheaper wifi plan.

  @eevblog this is why we have a fixed wireless connection as a backup, the NBN backbones they're connected to rarely go down

  @iinet is there an internet outage in Victoria (nbn)?

  OK to explain the reason for missing my own Anniversary stream... basically there was a brief blackout here caused by a transformer blowing and it fried the NBN, so until a technician can come around on Tuesday I have no internet beyond my phone... I will try to make fir it somehow

  @Goyoubays @bob_parto You are such an uninformed ****** that we'd bet you support One Nation, you dim cooker. The original NBN planned and started by Labor was FTP all the way and was NEVER going to be funded by the telcos, you idiot bath scum ring. The Libs ****** it by changing it with their "Technology Agnostic" prayer using a cobbled together FTN. Go back to bed and fiddle with yourself like you were before you posted your dimwitted, uneducated reply. Take tissues. ******* idiot.
