And elsewhere too, but your modem appears to be a router. In this case,
it handles PPPoE by itself, and all you need is to get an ip from it via
dhcp.

It probably has a bridge mode in which your computer has to establish
the PPPoE connection, but unless you have a specific reason to want it,
let the modem do it.

In other words, get rid of ppp. You don't need it.
