As far as I know, Verizon uses DHCP to assign addresses, etc. You shouldn't
need to fool with PPPoE.
Take a look here:

If you're sure you have a PPPoE connection, this may be helpful:

In the future, keep in mind that taking the time to write up an intelligible
question will greatly improve your odds of receiving useful help.
