Optus’ network is suffering a major, apparently national blackout this morning, leaving people unable to make calls. The company’s website says: “Our engineers are currently investigating a network fault that is impacting Optus Mobile & Fixed customers.” On social media, people in multiple capital cities, from Sydney to Perth, are complaining about the outage. Their social media rep has replied, saying: “We’re aware of an issue impacting connections for some Optus mobile and fixed customers.

We understand connectivity is important and are working to restore services as a priority. We apologise for any inconvenience caused while we have the issue resolved.” It is unclear if this outage is linked to public transport issues in Melbourne, where the entire train network came to a halt due to a “communications outage”. The Public Transport Victoria website reported: “All train services on the Metropolitan network are currently stopped due to a communications outage.
