Has anyone had any experience with NBN that they’d like to share?

Hello!

It has been rolled out in our area and we have until 26th October to switch to an NBN plan. So far, I have only heard horror stories! Would love some honest feedback (good or bad) to help form an opinion! Thank you!

We are still surfing the net without problems. Sorry to hear that some cannot get the NBN in their area.

We have been told the NBN will never be available in our area. I’ve heard lots of negatives about, no positives except for comments below

Telstra send us a NBN modem in the mail and we switched it. We found no difference what so ever which is great as I too have heard some bad stories. I guess it’s just pot luck if you get it good or bad.

We switched to the NBN back in July and are with Telstra. We are happy with our landline phone and internet service and have not had any problems.

We had a horrible experience and cancelled our contract. We are now with a 4G network called Vivid Wireless and they’re fantastic.

We’ve had NBN for probably 3/4 months and no dramas.

We moved to NBN here in regional WA something like 5 months ago, with Telstra. No problem at all.

I have it on satellite. I was told I had to get it wasn’t given the whole story on download sizes and prices but all that sorted and I found it maybe slightly faster. At the start it dropped out constantly but not so much now. Not sure about the cable version. All in all it is a bit faster and now their uping the download amounts for the same cost.
