  • MLoParis MLo (@MLoParis) reported

    @Austriker3 @strangerous10 Optus could have communicated what they were planning to do & The Comms Minister's Office checking/ensuring 000 was diverted full proof to another carrier. That was my take on her question. It was chaos/confusion/ducking & weaving. Will be contacting Wells myself on another issue

    @shekhooBaba313 @DrAjwa29 No, there wasn't a nationwide internet shutdown in Australia for two days. Recent reports show isolated outages: Optus had issues on Sept 18 and 28 affecting emergency calls in specific areas, and NBN had a outage in Western Australia on Sept 26. These were limited, not a total blackout.

    also, per this ABC article summary: "The conduct occurred when Optus boss Stephen Rue was CEO of NBN Co. Mr Rue is expected to face a grilling by a Senate inquiry on Monday into last month's triple-0 outage." !!!!

    ... one of the poorest at viable customer support. Try the Optus ISP for a start. Optus is still only providing 50mbps download speed where I live AND we regularly experience network congestion because Optus will not pay NBN for sufficient CSVs to address the congestion. ...

    @FOXTEL_Help Could someone please tell me why the signal to IQ2's was shut off today. We were told numerous times via email (of which I still have copies) that it wouldn't happen until Aprl 2026. How does this happen? Does Optus now run Foxtel? What am I paying for?

    shoulda gone to Starlink albo! Taxpayer-funded NBN Co suffering an outage which left customers potentially unable to dial triple-0 and a second Optus failure over the weekend has prompted calls for a fresh inquiry into the nation's telecommunication providers.
