M_a_r_ke (@Ma_rk_e) reported@heidimur In WA Transporth uses Fibre that runs thought every station and Private Wireless (LTE/4.9G): Transperth doesn't use Telstra or Optus for train-to-ground data. They built a custom, secure wireless network with 160+ dedicated radio masts along the tracks using licensed spectrum.

Cunners (@lachy_cunners) reported@jordy_perry I mean Dogga averages 130 or something stupid like that at Optus against some darn good rucks. Better shout that daicos with a Finn hard tag
-
Nigel Withers (@MajorBlipvert) reported@Kate3015 Remember 18 Sept 2025 when Optus had a 000 outage because no one though to make some test calls to ensure the service was working after an upgrade? Doing a test is basic common sense.

Romire 🇦🇺 (@RomireTV) reportedFirst optus, now telstra had a global outage, seems legit i guess, paves the way for a global network blackout if need, cause look how well that went. Chaos
-
Curious Mind (@mase_the) reported@QBCCIntegrity @Optus Woke up this morning to SOS on phone, was like wtf! Didn’t start working until I headed away from the major town/city I was in and it went to roaming
-
thomas (@_pathfindertom_) reported@GenVavancee Given the time the outage happened it probably was some form of maintenance and a routing error happened. They happen all the time but much like Optus this was a big one.
-
Jeremy (@jez99) reportedWhat an absolute joke from Telstra today. Changed companies to them from Optus over their outage a few years ago and it still happens. Had no connection all morning.

Alan Baxter ♛ (@AlanBixter) reported@YoiksAndAway @Optus @Telstra Absolutely. Management that place personal greed above service should not be in service industries, and those who endanger lives for personal gain should not be at liberty.

Jarrod (@oneXaday) reportedWith Optus - national outage, price hikes ($45-60 monthly) and spotty, unexplained 4G and 5G city coverage. Decide to jump to Telstra. With Telstra - national outage... Yep.
