 CPE support does not seem to be very broad yet.
 As far as I can see there is almost PPPoE only for IPv6 in Europe.

As long as there is an ADSL interface they usually support both, goes for major 
vendors as well as some smaller ones.

 In Germany cable is a mess by regulation. So no cable/dhcp.
 
 There used to be a DTAG monopoly with aDSL only and PPPoE only.
 Most ISPs still rely on the DTAG infrastructure. That is why
 very PPPoE biased.
 
 There is a high concentration of AVM in the CPE with Infineon
 chipsets in both DSLAM and DSL-Modem / Router

Part of the DTAG modems seem to be 7570 based and for what I have been told by 
German friends these can be flashed to the standard production releases. Not of 
much use for native, but you will get tunnel support in the box.

Living in the outback with DSL-1000 max I made some tests with
CIS-modem, Broadcom Cipset (Hitachi) and Infineon/AVM.

The CIS-modem is no longer sold but far superior to the others.
I had trouble to get some of the Broadcoms working.
Replacing the power supply unit (wallwart, not regulated) with
a regulated and filtered 13.5 volts power supply unit for my hamradio
both the bradcoms and the AVW worked almost a good as the CIS-modem.

Some of you might remember tuneable hum noise in ancient am-radios.
That noise could be cured by shunting the rectifiers with 4.7 nano
farad capacitors. The spectrum of the modem shows a lattice that
goes away with a reulated and filtered power source.

Of coarse you cannot spend a week experimenting at any client site.
So excuse the noise.
