NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Rakeau (@rakeau) reported@alexjohnward @ianclarkeAU Separate discussion. The comment targeted NBN specifically. It’s wrong to say that NBN = Bad. It’s not that simple.
-
Marty (@Martywa467) reported@Prowerock1 @VoteLewko @Starlink I myself ended up with a Telstra 5G modem also. It just shows that NBN was not the way to go. Even back when they decided to go with NBN it was obvious it was dated technology and for Australia it has never delivered the service it needs.
-
💜𝕏 CharmsVic 𝕏 💜 (@CharmsYahoo) reported@JaneCaro @AlboMP We need some caution because satellite Starmind will solve the electricity and water problem just as Starlink has solved the NBN problem
-
BanjoT (@BanjoT17) reportedBlack friends I served with in the military told me to watch out for *******. Being from Idaho I said it was a derogatory term for them wasn’t it? No, ******* are violent, irresponsible, parasites causing all the problems, stay away from them. One of them, Levi, always said NBN, ******* be ******* when there was trouble. I just listed to a couple of black females just as tired as the rest of us but threatening to orhanize against them.

Wal (@wally_waldo83) reported@colonelhogans By that logic, if you’re anti Coalition hand back your tax cuts, roads, defence, the NBN and every service they funded. Governments administer public services they don’t own them.
-
General Bewbs (@General_Bewbs) reported@Darth_Peachez Genuinely takes me ten hours minimum to download 100gb. It's local news obviously but there's a couple news sites in Australia talking about how a lot of us will be ****** by digital only because of how bad our NBN and wifi still is and how far behind we all are
-
robert sherwood (@Cranky_ole_man) reportedWIN NEWS WHICH REPLACED NBN NEWCASTLE IS A **** SHOW,NO LOCAL SPORT NO LOCAL NEWS ,WILL WATCH CH 7
-
Max Revelation (@MaximilPlan3t) reported@GregNordo @AllBiteNoBark88 I just had another go with Optus. Literally no internet during peak hrs. Their NBN is unbelievably bad, even my business plan was dropping out 20 times a day. Aldi it is.....
-
The Opinionated Veteran (@the_vocal_one) reported@ianclarkeAU With today's technology, the NBN simply cannot compete with a wireless network like @Starlink, and that is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future... #Starlink has a LOT of advantages; completely replacing fixed networks is not one of them and won't be anytime soon.
-
Werner Kasselman (@wernerk_au) reportedTo be fair. The LNP destroyed what we could have had with the NBN. And you’re comparing jellyfish with drongos. These are different solutions for different problems.
-
Russell Drysdale :We Stand With Albo,Labor & Aust (@Russputin2) reported@Juzira You really should get Full fibre NBN History does not support that view, except in Hansons micro fringe cult & within Murdochs LNP Crime Org.
-
anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported@KymRob25112 compared to NBN setup, book installer, wait two weeks, installer fails to show, rebook, wait another two weeks, installer shows up, signal has to be bounced of barn roof, then wait another 4 weeks for NBN co to process it. so two months for nbn vs two hours for starlink.
-
Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reportedSo, apparently #NBN is performing maintenance in various areas of VIC, with outages up to three hours in each area. Something seems to have gone wrong with it, though, so it's now a widespread issue.
-
Thomas (@RedoubtOfThomas) reported@lowlandsapien Never forget the NBN rollout either.
-
Raymond McKeown (@RaymondKeown3) reported@Rexdinasaur I worked with Conroy on the original NBN & built the first site in Kiama, it was a disaster, it cost Transgrid $10 million, not one of NBN management had ever built a network, they had no idea, never understood the unique properties of Fibre cable, Conroy would simply not listen, one deal he did cost $800 million as a stuff up, I walked away & said to my people, everyone of our competitors will chase this, lets chase the business they ignore.
