as you insert your pcmcia card into your computer , it give you this :
root@titatom:~# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
  product info: "Sony Ericsson", "GC85 PC Card", "ML2022"
  manfid: 0x0221, 0x2000
  function: 2 (serial)

root@titatom:~# cardctl info
PRODID_1="Sony Ericsson"
PRODID_2="GC85 PC Card"
PRODID_3="ML2022"
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0221,2000
FUNCID=2


look at you're dmesg output, you should see a line like this one:
Jan 24 00:17:42 localhost cardmgr[4377]: + /dev/ttyS2:

here, our device is /dev/ttyS2, you must so replace it with you're in the first file. (on my debian/sid, udev link /dev/modem to it)

Now, you have to understand this:
This file send the pin number to the sim card, but it must be send only one time. So if you want to restart you're ppp connection, you'll need to comment out the line "OK 'AT+CPIN=0000'". And this is necessary, because, at least for me, the connection never come up at first try.

So, to start pppd, type:
pon caracas2


to stop it:
poff caracas2


But sometimes, it won't stop at first try to, so you'll have to poff it more than one time until you get an error.

sometimes, everyhing won't work anymore at all. So, you can do:
cardctl eject ; cardctl insert

next you have to uncomment the line with the pin number for the first "pon"
