Doing:
# ifconfig eth0 up mtu 1492
didn't stop those messages.
Anyway, I got it working by:
- tossing DHCP
- bringing eth0 up so that PPPoE doesn't fail
- editing my chap-options file.
So, after getting it to work on my Laptop, I proceeded to install it
on the router box. First problem was the 8139too and rtl8129 drivers
both have bugs (the Telstra supplied SMC EZ Card 10/100 wasn't giving
me Rx interrupts). I'll hassle the driver maintainers about this.
Pulling out another network card, I tried to bring up ADSL again, and
it failed. Going back to my laptop, just to make sure it all still
works, I discovered that it's stopped working there too!
In /var/log/messages, I get:

This looks suspicious. Why is the remote end terminating the
connection? Does Telstra turn off the lights at night?!?
