the TRANSPORT_IP means that you can directly use IP on it. Compared to
PPP or some other authentication schemes. Mostly used for Ethernet of
course.
If the device requires networks, then either NETWORK_SINGLE or
NETWORK_MULTIPLE need to be used. Bluetooth is 1:n connections while
WiFi only does 1:1 connections.
