PC Connectivity in my settings (on the phone) by default was set on "None" so all the settings (Internet, Wlan, Bluetooth,etc) are disabled. Should I use the "Default" profile for the PC Connectivity Manager?
You should select None in PC connectivity. I just make use of its PAN support only. No configuration on it is needed.

Make sure you don't have firewall (blah blah) blocking your way. Please show me the following outputs for investigation:

On client side:
Code:
ipconfig /all
route print
On N900 (after script is activated)
Code:
root
ifconfig bnep0
route
iptables -L -t nat
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
