NBN madness(?)


Gord Barentsen

Recommended Posts

Sorry for the lapse lately folks...apparently Optus (or Telstra?  They seem to own the infrastructure) are unable to fix a certain tower due east of me, which has been wreaking havoc on my internet connectivity of late.

Hopefully things have been resolved by now, although my wife tells me a story of someone whose Internet was out for two weeks while they "implemented" the NBN in his area. O.o  I hope this has nothing to do with the NBN (which is currently being extended to my street here in Frankston), but who knows these days, in an era of phone menus, "live chat" which never connects, and an overall illusion of customer service?

(And yes, I get a bit cranky without my Internet....)

Well our transition month is September.  There's a 21st century saying that if you really want to know what someone is really like, watch how they react to the internet being down. My poor wife 😐
