I wonder if they will eventually use the Netcomm wireless 5G units

[misterapocalypse]

Still no more info on these upgrades :(

I've had NBN FIXED wireless for 1 year now. Some days I get 36mbps, other days I get 5mbps and still paying the same price. Its disgusting. We are so backwards here in Australia.

Good news but time will tell. LNP still can't understand that they stuffed the NBN but don't admit it.

I'm stuck with wireless here in Rural Oz - Imbil QLD - and for the last 2 months have had internet &VoIP service cut with no notification from NBN. These dropouts happened on weekdays, went from 2-8 hours and had restoration of service on 13th May 2019.

As it turns out, I called iiNet to comlain about these events and was told it was NBN doing "...maintenance and upgrading the wireless towers" and that iiNet were sick of fielding complaints due to NBN killing service with no warning.
If this is how NBN treat their (unfortunate) customers, then we are stuck with a very expensive lemon.

Hey pat great vid just wanna say ur vids are so informative that it helped me write an exam at school thanks 👍

[JagdSeelen]

Now only if they could fix the FTTN connections that they installed more than 1km from the node. I'm 1.3km from the node and only on a good day do I get 25Mbps and most other days 22-23Mbps.

im getting nbn in 4days. i've literally went through all of highschool with no internet. This country is so fucked.

[jasejase]

I am affected by this. I have had massive issues since joining the NBN fixed wireless. During the day I get 42-48mbps download but during the night I get 4-8mbps. I was initially told that my tower was being upgraded after 1 month of complaining to my provider and the expected day of completion was 31st March 2020. After another month of my provider trying to fix and saying it should be fixed the new timeframe is 31st of December 2019. Still a long time for a tower that isn't 12 months old.

Hi Pat,
Good news if they actually tell the truth. Dumped NBN Wireless 3 months ago after two years of not getting anything near what was being paid for. NBN Co. haven’t responded to my email requesting they let me know when they have a product fit for purpose so I could give it another try.
Quite happy with the service I now receive on 4G with 2 bars of signal, eats the NBN and not too expensive as it works.
Have a NBN box decorating a wall in the house, not the same without the flashing lights.
Good luck to all NBN Wireless users, you’ll need it.
Cheers
Mike

What state do you live in, Pat? Hilton, SA?

[adibsadman]

G'day Pat

How will I know NBN work has commenced in my street?

According to the website, it's meant to be here by May (this month) however I haven't seen any work or anything.

3 months ago, I saw some good people putting in thin yellow wires into the ground in a nearby street. I had a quick chat with them and they said my street should get it within a couple of months.

Cheers!

Maybe the airwaves is the way to go so to speak!
Because you won't have the fibre directly connected to your tablet or whatever! That's why we have Wifi!

[fitterhappier]

Im Tryna play Fightcade to play Retro fighting gams like JoJo bizarre adventure and street fighter. I ahve bought an Ethernet cable and a router and stuff like that. But it's connected to the fixed wireless so it's shit. I cant even play aussies

[Kane_Witkowski]

fixed wireless is the worst thing ever going from a copper connection central Queensland to a fixed wireless connection at the coast is horrible I went from 25-30 ping to 40-50 ping and the speeds went from 100mb down and 20mb up to 40-70mb down and 10mb up and the internet becomes almost unusable anywhere from 30mins to and 1
