Here's my DSL setup for mindspring, besure to change the PPPoe device in
the ppp.conf for your setup, on my system I have to "load netgraph" during
bootup, or "kldload netgraph (not sure about this one)" I haven't had time
to figure that part out yet. Then I invoke ppp with ppp -nat  -ddial test.
Also if you are using NAT and PPPoE and windows boxes you have to change
MTUMAX rate in the registy, otherwise some web pages/games/internet
programs will Hang/lock the windows machines!!!!
