Default Cannot connect to webserver through cell phone?

Im trying to view a wml page from my linux/apache webserver.

I have no problems viewing the page through a wap emulator, but I
cannot connect to the page from any cell phone.

Do I need a wap gateway installed on my server to connect??? -Nick

You don't need, but ensure that you have correct mime-type for the wap
pages - emulators may work with any mime-type, but cell phones will
not. You should also remember, that the older phones have very limited
memory for wap pages, and they will display only x kb wap pages (where
x < 10KB) - bigger will cause problems

Thank you very much for responding, but Im absolutely sure the MIME
types are correct. I used the most recent Linux Apache MIME types,
then I also tried using someone elses MIME types. Also, im testing it
on brand new Samsung and Sony phones. Any other ideas? What about the
port settings? Do WML pages get accessed from a specific port? -Nick
