Using the 7100t as modem - VPN Issues

It is good to see that you can use the BlackBerry 7100t as a tethered modem to connect your laptop to the internet. Results seem to indicate that throughput isn't that great, and it would have been nice if I could have used Bluetooth to connect the two devices rather than the USB cable.

The main proboem from my perpective is that I can't get a conection to my company's intranet using either of the two VPN solutions we use over this link.

Now it may be that somewhere along the line there is some proxy in use, and if someone knows how to clear that please let me know, otherwise the 7100t will just not cut it for me.
