It seems that the USB IP address is hard coded in module usb_moded to 192.168.2.15, this can conflict with some networks (in fact, with my N900), need to add a special route when connected by USB.
It would be great to have the IP address in a configuration file with a default value.
The connection by KDE is very easy, only need to config the peer address with knetworkmanager...

For this exact reason, there are 2 IP addresses you can use, see part of changelog
quoting:
If a factory reset cannot be performed or if the device has booting issues,
- Unplug USB cable and turn off device
- Press volume down and power on the device
- Plug in USB cable and using USB networking telnet to 192.168.2.15 or 10.42.66.66 and follow the instructions

Sorry, IMHO the answer was this :
Just edit /etc/usb-moded/usb-moded.ini and add :
[network]
ip = 192.168.2.17 (or something else)
I have not found any document explaining how to configure the UI developer mode works. I thought of a basic configuration for users requiring not touch anything in the system, can be, an option in the config menu for advanced users with options to configure stuff like this.
I intend to replace my N900 by Jolla and I need it to have at least the basic functionality that I have with my N900.
Really, i apreciate your help. :-)
Very simple. Settings -> system settings ->developer mode -> tap on the ip shown next to the usb icon and you can change it.
Basically right in the same place where you enabled the developer mode. I would think it is easy enough no? ;)

Actually it is not hard-coded there. It is a hard-coded fallback.
Documentation on changing the config manually (by editing the config file) can be found here: https://github.com/nemomobile/usb-moded/blob/master/docs/usb_moded-doc.txt
From the command line you can also use usb_moded_util (example below)
usb_moded_util -n set:ip,10.0.0.2
Or you use the developer mode UI, where you can change the IP to anything you like.

And as I stated earlier in the answer (weirdly enough below) you can just use the developer mode UI to change the IP. No need to edit files by hand.
