Shepherds Hill Road, Offler Avenue, Sargent Parade, St Georges Terrace, Vaucluse Crescent and Silverdale Crescent are affected.
“We woke up Friday morning and we had no internet. That was it,” Eden Hills resident Michael White said.
“Everything is offline. Even using your iPad, every time I try to go on YouTube in the morning while you’re eating breakfast, just watching something — but just nothing, spinning wheels,” said Bellevue Heights resident Joel Lawrence.
Another 203 homes in Craigmore were also offline this morning after another copper theft there.
Crews are working to repair the extensive damage in Eden Hills, but believe it could take up to three days before customers are back online.
Contractors from Perth have been dispatched to assist, with more arriving tomorrow.
“I got an email from Belong, which is my service provider, to say there’s an outage in the area and crews are working to restore it,” White said.
“So we’re just sitting here thinking when is he coming back? When will it work?” Lawrence said.
NBN apologized for the inconvenience and said it was working with the police to protect its infrastructure.
