Tony Ilian (@tonytau101) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@lesstenny @Optus Yep I can answer this with a couple of different scenarios - as I don’t have specifics. Night time issues. If your MiL is old school PSTN customer, it could be thermal induction. Daytime temp warms = copper expands. Night time temp falls copper contracts near joint. TI 1/-

Amy 🐺👩💻🏡 (@Amys_Kapers) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaBeen on an Optus plan for barely 2 months and have already had to sort out 3 separate issues with glitches or things broken with their systems 😩 And each time I have to spend time and mental energy fixing something they broke 😩

Michael Dowling #ClimateActionNow (@MeckeringBoy) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@ObeeWhen @GrrrumpyPants There was a queue of people with similar hack issues. I don’t know how much business Optus is doing these days. I walked out in disgust.

Andrew B (@Andrew_BofPerth) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@SENBreakfast It should be in WA or SA. NOT NSW or QLD. Far out. Optus is the best stadium outside Melbourne and AO is damn fine too. Gabba is crap and Sydney , well. That is hardly an AFL ground.

H. Adam in Aus 🇦🇺🇮🇩🕋💧🌊 (@AdamVW1958) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaSo I rang Optus because they have completely stuffed up my account. At 7.30 Eastern they said closes at 8pm but no one answering in technical support so best you call again tomorrow he said Great service #optus

🅃🄸🄽🄶🄰🅂 (@Tingas75) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@stuartistics @AFL Freo do nothing for 119 minutes & then it’s the umpires fault for them losing. I sat at Optus for that entire game. Wish I could charge for having to watch some of the worst 110 minutes of footy and the wish I could double charge for the 10 minutes of choking at the finish line

Victor Yong (@BigV2011WCE) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@AndyB_Aussiered having problems with my 50/20 HFC NBN since I connected it on Optus. What’s the alternative to NBN I can use in my area (6149).

Lainie (@lainieaquietoz) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@markje4 @cheryl_kernot I only became an Optus customer when they bought out Virgin and I left them a couple of years ago. I was told they will delete all past customers details when this is all sorted but as it's an ongoing issue they don't know when that will be. Fanfuckingtastic

Eryn (@payneerynn) reported@Tiger27745120 Thank the lord, thought i was the only one. am on the phone to optus now. The day before the ausalert message i was forced to update my phone. a S25 Ultra samsung. Ever since that and simultaneously the AUSALERT message i have nothing but connectivity issues.

Paddy (@Dabatsau) reported@cookyourgarden @valuetainment They dont have lowband spectrum in Australia (nor in the US) without doing a deal with existing providers (Telstra & Optus) so dont get your hopes up. The spectrum they do have is mid band and would require phone manufacturers to support it, also needs a clear path to the sky to work.

BRODA (@RazeBannon) reportedAsk Grok: Can ISPs block VOIP? Yes, ISPs can block Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic at their network level, and many do so in practice. This is technically feasible using tools like port blocking, deep packet inspection (DPI), and other traffic management techniques. How ISPs Block VoIP ISPs control the core network infrastructure, so they can inspect and filter traffic before it reaches customers. Common methods include: Port-based blocking**: Traditional VoIP often uses specific ports like UDP 5060/5061 for SIP (signaling) and a range of ports (e.g., 10000–20000) for RTP (media/voice). ISPs can simply drop traffic on these ports. Deep Packet Inspection (DPI)**: This examines not just headers but packet contents, signatures, packet sizes, timing, and protocol behavior to identify VoIP even if it uses non-standard ports or obfuscation. DPI can dynamically detect and block SIP, RTP, or app-specific patterns (e.g., Skype, WhatsApp calls). IP address or domain blacklisting**: Blocking known servers of VoIP providers. Protocol anomaly detection or traffic shaping**: Dropping or throttling UDP-heavy, low-latency streams typical of voice calls. Real-World Examples Certain countries and carriers (e.g., in the Middle East, Morocco, Philippines, or places with state telecom monopolies) block VoIP to protect traditional phone revenue or for regulatory reasons. Mobile providers like Optus 4G or others have blocked SIP traffic. Corporate/school networks or bandwidth-limited ISPs sometimes block or deprioritize VoIP to conserve resources. China has historically blocked VoIP, though workarounds emerged over time. Limitations and Challenges for Complete Blocking Encryption and obfuscation**: Modern VoIP (e.g., over WebRTC, HTTPS, or apps like Signal/WhatsApp) is harder to detect reliably. DPI isn't foolproof against randomized ports, variable packet patterns, or VPN-like wrapping. VPNs and tunnels**: Users can often bypass blocks by routing traffic through a VPN, which encrypts and hides the VoIP signature. Evasion techniques**: Providers and users adapt with port hopping, STUN/TURN servers, or proxies. False positives**: Overly aggressive blocking can disrupt other UDP-based services (gaming, video streaming). Complete, unbreakable blocking is difficult long-term without also harming general internet performance, but partial or effective blocking for most users is very achievable. Why ISPs Do This Reasons include protecting legacy telephony revenue, complying with regulations, managing bandwidth, reducing congestion, or enforcing content policies. In summary, yes—ISPs have both the capability and precedent for blocking VoIP, primarily via DPI and port controls, though motivated users can often circumvent it. If you're dealing with a specific ISP or scenario, details could help narrow down options. TCP/IP allows spam filters at the node level. This is one small example. TCP/IP remains neutral and ethical.

Katrina Larsen (@KatrinaLarsen) reported@optus_help I’m not entering my personal details to one more Optus representative. This needs to be escalated to the Ombudsman. No one can respond or communicate with me about this issue. And there has been absolutely no effort to restore services.
