Try to activate this paragraph in ng_pppoe.c:

#if 0
#define AAA printf("pppoe: %s\n", __func__ );
#define BBB printf("-%d-", __LINE__ );
#else
#define AAA
#define BBB
#endif

I mean change "if 0" to "if 1". Then rebuild a new ng_pppoe.ko. Then
try to connect, ensure that you see PADI's with tcpdump. And then
report what do you have (or have not) logged on console.

Thanks.

Seems like the issue is either with network driver or ng_pppoe, not with
pppoed daemon.
