I'll bet if you put your DSL modem in simple modem mode, you'd have no problem at all getting that PPPoE link up and running. I believe that it is worth trying ones self after RTFM for the experience, then ask the questions when one is really stuck.

I've tried many suggested configurations for /etc/ppp/ppp.conf, and /etc/rc.conf & read relevant chapters from 'Complete FreeBSD' & the handbook, but my connection still dies before reaching the LCP phase. Im using an Alcatel Speedtouch 530 Modem connected to Ethernet. My ADSL connection is fine in Windoze however the configuration for the modem is usually set through a web-browser. Do the modem settings(done via browser) affect the connection in FBSD or does the system simply take the settings from ppp.conf etc? Im somewhat confused on this point. I can ping the modem at 10.0.0.138 and can open the web interface in X. I believe your alcatel speedtouch (although I have never seen one) isn't a modem, but a router. So you don't have to mess around with ppp . You simply set it as default gateway and dns server in /stand/sysinstall --> Configure --> Networking --> Interfaces --> and select you NIC. Or - if you prefer this - have a look at your Complete FreeBSD and edit /etc/rc.conf manually.

In Windows, do you have to use any software to connect, or is the connection made automatically. It appears you have your modem set up in routing mode, which means the modem most likely does the authentication to your ISP for you. I have a strong suspicion that you do not even need to use ppp on the FreeBSD box. If your modem contains the login info for the ISP, just set up your /etc/rc.conf file with the following: ifconfig_nic="DHCP" and then run: # /etc/netstart You *should* get your info from the router (modem) and should be up and surfing. If that doesn't work, provide more info on your setup, including the output of 'ipconfig' on the windows machine.
