BCP #58,271,432--which basically states "Don't," comes highly recommended.

Instead, investigate your nearest .16e or evdo rev. A reseller. In the
case of .16e, most available APN's are built around user and
transport/transit abstractions, assuming shared-facilities, virtual
providers, etc. The equipment used in both is a far cry from anything
802.11.
