"The issue is with a security patch Apple released.
They changed the way PPP and PPPoE passwords are
maintained on your system".

http://www.applelinks.com/index.php/forums/viewthread/166/

The solution:

"In Security (System Preferences)

Enable 'Password required to unlock the preferences system secured' ".

then:

"After changing the setting the security preferences you will need to 
authenticate to change your network setting. Go to network pane, click 
on lock icon in lower left corner, enter password and you should be able 
to change settings. This is what I did and it works fine now".
