@Aubrey  BasilDV already had a "closer look"

'The cable that's torn off is not affecting your service, which is why we can't escalate it to NBN Co'

 

the street cable is loose with a TEMPORARY FIX, it needs to be hung securely as it should be, with high winds likely to cut the connection permanently.

I need a stable connection for telehealth with hospital and doctor.

@BasilDV 

thank you, they have contacted me and NBN Co has also assigned a case manager so hopefully the cable will be fixed.

The NBN Co has now fixed the problem with a brand new cable from the street pole to my house.
