  @optus_help Pointless. I've gone over this many times. It's been like this for a while now. It's leaving Me no choice but to have to move to another carrier. I've shown this to staff at the Bendigo Optus store. "That's pretty ****" were His exact words but NOTHING He could do.

  @eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

  @NBN_Australia Another internet free night because you and Optus won't fix whatever makes our internet drop out regularly. FTTP in 2026 but we'd get better connection in South Sudan.

  @FTank Ok . I'm with Optus, but it's Amysim.. you reckon that might be the problem? I'll switch it to Optus if it means I can keep using it.

  @freopics_ If you can afford it, book flights now that you can get a refund or a credit voucher for as it guarantees more travel in 2027 hehe. But, otherwise it will be great here. Down in Freo or at Optus or with friends.

  @Kate3015 We Also built TPG & Vodafone's networks, however, my point was really Albanese raced up to Singapore begging for oil, Optus is owned by the Singapore Govt. They will not be pleased. And for the record, we built the very first NBN site at Kiama, I met several times with Conroy, he is a fool. We walked away, I said let everyone else beg for this, we will pick up all their other business while they are ******* with NBN, Conroy had no idea of the concept of Fibre, nor did his management, they were all Guys I had worked with at Sun Microsystems, not one had ever built a network. Conroy went against advice & lost $800 million on a Satellite project, the Indonesians grabbed the flight space.
