That suggests that the isp apn does not use nat. If so that's cool. OTOH all
(admittingly European carriers) do nat for internet access. OTOH the wap apns
provide a walled garden that include a wap proxy that allows surfing http sites.
Despite how many people associate internet==IE, having a proxy that allows http
access, massaging the content when accessed is not "normal" Internet access.
OTOH, one can build a tunnel through http, but it's a pita. add gprs speeds,
plus the wap proxy and it gets a PITA.

The wap APN does provide "generic" internet access. But the difference
is that is uses a NAT'ed private IP address. Therefore you probably
can't use it with a VPN (you would need PDA Connect if that is a
requirement for you). But for basic browsing, it will work just fine.
