do not go telling people to scan the optus network, that is just not
appreciated, probably a breach of aup/tos.
the host name for 'your' news server depends probably on the specific
optus network/segment you are on.. try catenating 'news' with your

news.myregion.nsw.optushome.com.au
for somebody out west it would be news.blktn1.nsw.optushome.com.au for
blacktown..
