  A guy moved into a new apartment. Only “official” internet was FTTN NBN — $90/month for a pathetic 30 Mbps down max. He called Telstra and Optus. Both said “5G Fixed Wireless not available at your address.” He checked a cell tower map anyway. Half a dozen towers within a couple km. Bought a GL.iNet GL-X3000NR 5G router + built a DIY 4x4 MIMO LPDA external antenna. Result? 800 Mbps download / 170 Mbps upload. 25x faster. $75/month. Same building. Here’s exactly how he did it 🧵

  @simonbiddle @taipan168 As much as I defend funding government services, the notion that government run IT will be more reliable than Telstra/Optus is just not believable given the various IT issues we see on a constant basis from Centrelink and who can forget the debacle of the last Census

  @TimjboAU Remember a week ago when the entire telstea network went down? Remember a month before that when the entire optus/tpg network went down? Now next week we have the entire network government alert thing happening? Yeah, those network outages were 100% preparation for next week.

  @borisstephens Firstly, taxes do not fund government spending, critical misconception the establishment perpetuates on purpose to justify austerity. Secondly, you're right to say that just throwing money at problems does not automatically fix anything. You still need competent management and a plan. All nationalisation does at a baseline is remove the profit motive that leads to cutting corners on network maintenance to save money, which is what leads in part to outages like this. And I haven't just proposed renationalisation, I've also proposed using Optus' satellite expertise to create a publicly-owned, privacy-first satellite internet network to challenge Starlink.

  Let’s forget the umpiring, taunting and constant booing of this underrated crowd, what’s the go with this Optus stadium deck, the worst ground in the AFL currently, on par with what was dished up for origin last night. Awful. #aflfreoswans

  @Adrian_Arciuli @FIFAWorldCup AFL stadiums are not built to support football, I’d take Optus, Adelaide Oval and the MCG off the list! Probably one of the reasons we have never won a World Cup

  @MikeCarlton01 @Telstra That would be vodafone followed by optus and then telstra. Before anyone comes after me, vodafone went down for several months in 2010/2011, optus had a data breach in 2022 that affected nearly 10 million customers. Telstra just inconvenienced people.
