  @InsidersABC, an IT expert, or even someone with eyes, will tell you that if all our Telstra and Optus routers are made by Huwai, there is no point locking them out of the 5G network.

  @DenisNovak007 Production is poor I agree. That’s on the APL as a cost saving measure of course. Replays are average - replicating what Optus Sport did should be the goal IMO

  @SkullSpeedDeal I called Optus support the other day. The Indian guy on the phone literally couldn’t speak coherent English, misunderstood 5G and NBN, and sounded like he was calling from a scam centre which he probably was. Got escalated to an Aussie girl, problem was immediately solved.

  @chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS RCS support for iPhone Messages in Australia isn't live yet. Apple added it back in iOS 18, but it requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus, or Vodafone. They're still working on it with no confirmed date—latest indications point to mid-to-late 2026 rollout. Contact your carrier for the latest.

  @frokfrdk don't forget Telstra/TPG/Optus might just block it from the network for no reason either... expensive *** paper weight

  @Shaebee22 My weather app says Optus will be pretty cold, 14° down to 11°, big diff from Darwin. Hope our heroes bring the 🔥 Bloody Wharfie Time shits me to tears 😭

  I'm paying about $100/month for Optus/NBN, and lose connection at least twice a week for a few hours. Today I got a text from Optus saying that they're trying, apparently so far unsuccessfully, to fix what they helpfully called fault 754885. Anyone know what on earth this?

  Working in regional NSW today and only @Telstra users could make calls. Optus: no signal. Vodafone: non‑existent. 2026 and we still don’t have a shared rural network? When one telco holds all the coverage, it’s not a choice - it’s a monopoly. #WakeUpAustralia #NannyStateNSW

  In 3 weeks, Freo play StK at Optus. During that time, I hope I can forget that the Blues had a red hot sniff on the road against the Dockers while the Saints stomped on their dead carcass in front of the Blues home crowd. One year ago today, 94-33. Never forget that one.

  @Suzanne92939731 @ruicharadrius Your problem is using optus

  @eevblog Maybe Optus doesn't want you to leave and stop paying them, even if they are related to the network? I can only assume here that Dodo is less expensive than Optus, and that is the reason for you wanting to migrate.
