You can give the native PPPoE a try. 
man(8) pppoed explains how to do it. Take a look at this example:
pppoed_flags="-d -P /var/run/pppoed.pid -a "yazzy.org" -l "default" "

AFAIR you can tell windows what service name to chose. There is also a free
pppoe client - http://www.raspppoe.com/ which you can use to "browse" your 
network for pppoe broadcast packets.
