Here you go:
[start /etc/ppp/ppp.conf]
default:
set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
nat enable yes
set redial 15 28800
set reconnect 15 28800
set device PPPoE:dc0
set mru 1492
set mtu 1492
set speed sync
enable lqr
set lqrperiod 5
set cd 5
set dial
set login
set timeout 0
set authname theuser
set authkey thepass
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0
add default HISADDR
papchap:
set authname theuser
set authkey thepass
[end ppp.conf]
dc0 is the "outside" interface. "theuser" and "thepass" are the PPPoE
user name and password, respectively.
If it still doesn't work, make sure that the network card is actually
working--hook it up to a hub (or just another computer) and make sure
that that computer can communicate with FreeBSD.
Hope this helps
