  @FetchStep Haven't watched myself yet but have #Telstra actually conceded the Time Sync function -- upon which the entire national mobile network critically depends -- relies on a SINGLE decades old piece of electronics? Really? Hard to believe such incompetence (bad judgment) is possible.

  So Telstra only had one GPS "card" for the whole Australian telecommunications network? Total incompetence. Heads must roll and compensation to all #telstra customers.

  @samstrades Today 19/7/26 - trying to get info from Telstra on how to lodge a complaint/compensation about the outage, Telstra are saying to customers that the cause was “unforeseen” …… they can’t help themselves #telstra #youhaveonejob #sackthelot

  @JonesHowDareYou Took me a while to log in & post this morning, Jenny, as X were presumably consulting with Telstra on service provision. I’m toasting Spain in the Executive Suite today. Stay rugged up🧣 Wordle 1,857 3/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟨⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🥳

  @titchashen Yeah, once upon a time a change like this was tested in a dedicated test & evaluation lab that represented the network, including redundancy, but it looks like now Telstra, but hopefully not other critical service providers, don’t bother. Guess they don’t have test staff anymore

  @peterke60628957 @FetchStep Telstra is a privatised cash cow. The executives see their job as maximising shareholder returns. Cheaper to fix/replace after it breaks rather than expensive preventative maintenance or eliminating all single points of failure. Profit first, customers last, every single time.

  @ReutersAsia Are @Telstra suggesting that all 3 network time servers were/are hosted in the same physical chassis? Seems fundamentally flawed? Also, do they not continually scan for vulnerabilities and end of service? @sarahinthesen8 something sounds fishy.

  @trobb158 @FetchStep Especially one that echoes Barnaby Joyce’s moronic suggestion of a link between the Telstra blackout and a Chinese rocket test.

  @Starlink I have to get out of a telstra contract that is not what they told me coverage is crap at times

  A guy moved into a new apartment. Only “official” internet was FTTN NBN — $90/month for a pathetic 30 Mbps down max. He called Telstra and Optus. Both said “5G Fixed Wireless not available at your address.” He checked a cell tower map anyway. Half a dozen towers within a couple km. Bought a GL.iNet GL-X3000NR 5G router + built a DIY 4x4 MIMO LPDA external antenna. Result? 800 Mbps download / 170 Mbps upload. 25x faster. $75/month. Same building. Here’s exactly how he did it 🧵
