Well, thank you and all the developers for your work! :-)

I was using the same pppd configuration that worked with the old card
(different ISP, though), adapted slightly. I didn't think for them to be
this complicated...

Thanks, this gave me the kick I needed to try harder. Now I'm writing this
through the 3G connection. :-)

I changed my configuration to this one:

/dev/cuaU0
921600
defaultroute
lock
noauth
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/peers/chat.script'
0.0.0.0:10.11.12.14
noipdefault
persist
nobsdcomp
noccp
nodeflate
novj
novjccomp
refuse-pap

Nothing so hard after some trial'n'error with the debug option, after all.
That showed me what wasn't working until it did.

Thank you again.

Ciao,
D.
