NBN Co has scheduled two rounds of overnight planned maintenance this month across exchange points serving Ipswich, Bundamba, Goodna, and the Gold Coast corridor, work that may disrupt internet and phone services for businesses in these areas.
- What it is: Fibre cable relocation and infrastructure works at NBN points of interconnect covering Ipswich, Bundamba, Goodna, Merrimac, Southport, and Acacia Ridge.
- When: Overnight on 13 July (11:00pm to 6:00am AEST), with further works affecting linked services on 19 July (11:00pm to 7:00am AEST).
- Who is affected: Businesses connected via NBN in these areas may see internet, VoIP phone, and EFTPOS outages for up to 7-8 hours during the listed windows.
- What to do: If your business operates overnight or relies on always-on connectivity such as alarm monitoring, cloud backups, or VoIP, plan around these windows and confirm your mobile backup or 4G/5G failover is working beforehand.
We recommend businesses in the affected Ipswich, Logan, and Gold Coast corridors confirm their backup connectivity is in place ahead of these maintenance windows.
