  @BonoboWanderer @Batman2242 My starlink is super fast and $40 a month cheaper than telstra. I've had no issues at all.

  Telstra are the Great and Powerful Oz in the Wizard of Oz, who when you pull away the curtain, is a conman Telstra just admitted to using the crowdsourced outage report website DownDetector when their system fails Does that make sense? So Telstra are a $54 BILLION company who rely on crowdfunding to protect Australians access to emergency services So people’s lives are at risk and they are urgently calling 000 while Telstra executives are checking DownDetector. The CEO is paid $7 million+ a year and this is the result. Telstra HQ:

  @sarahinthesen8 Sarah, thanks for conducting the Telstra Enquiry. I see two key issues I The equipment maintenance failure II The infrastructure configuration didn't confine the outage to one region or state. Infrastructure needs to be rebuilt so future outages are confined.

  @lagoonki Incidentally, while I was taking my pic on the Yorke, my phone was operating on the signal from the Telstra tower on Kangaroo Island, it's so close.

  I get no telco can guarantee no network outages, but they can guarantee replacing ageing equipment when it’s needed. @Telstra hasn’t explained WHY it decided not to replace a $30k piece of infrastructure, particularly when it’s responsible for maintaining the Triple 0 network.

  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 🧵

  @strangerous10 The Optus CEO fell on her sword after their nationwide outage a couple of years ago. The Telstra head might go the same way. What were they thinking, laziness, or just penny-pinching.
