Hmm... not really I guess, I haven't used pppoe in this context, or used 
wireless on FreeBSD at all. :\ If the peer supports it, adding "enable 
deflate" to pppd.conf might be a small help in pumping more data across the 
link. It's strange that it bombs on the options you disabled. What sort of 
device are you communicating with? Are there no usenet posts on problems 
with this device in linux/freebsd groups?

wicontrol(8) may have some options for the wireless link that can be tuned, 
although you probably have tried those already. Also, does the wi0 
interface have no IP address bound to it?

I will probably set up my first wireless network a few months from now, so 
I'm interested in the results. :) Sorry that I didn't have more info.
