    @toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

    @LesStonehouse @Optus There is, I think I remember correctly, a period of up to 48 hours where a new service replicates across a WAN (wide area network).

    @LCHF_Matt I had this same NBN box when I was with Optus internet. I got rid of it when I changed to full fibre with Aussie BB. I hated Optus, but I have to say, the NBN box itself never failed in all the years I had it. Will be interested to hear how you go with Starlink

    @showcallcrewing @NBN_Australia I ended up using iiNET because the offer a 4G backup, very important for work. And Optus did not help when NBN tech disconnected me, by mistake, as their record were not accurate, so they cut me. For it sorted in 3 days, but no apology from NBN for their error no follow up.

    @optus_help @amaysimAU It appears in the last few months receiving MMS was broken on devices that don't have SMSoIP (over IMS). Is this a known issue that is going to be fixed? MMS media can be sent but not received via LTE/NAS. SMS send/receive works. Only an @Optus problem.

    It's not like mainstream media dont know about ANY of this. πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡ In September 2017, the federal government announced a $50 million investment over seven years in the Cyber Security Cooperative Research Centre (CSCRC). The CEO was Rachael Falk. She led the independent review into the Optus and Medibank cyber breaches. She was appointed by the Minister for Home Affairs to the Expert Advisory Board for Australia’s 2023-2030 Cyber Security Strategy. In February 2025, Falk left the CSCRC to become a partner at Ashurst Risk Advisoryβ€”a return to the firm where she had worked as a lawyer in 1998. The CSCRC was not just a research centre. It was a revolving doorβ€”a place where a connected insider could build a network, then cash in.
