Hmmm, I seem to remember something about another way to do PPPoE...

But I've been using ppp's built-in PPPoE support for about a year now.
(With Netgraph etc)
Simple to set up, works flawlessly.

Uses 21% CPU on a 486 DX2-50.

It seems I need the following parameters to get my PPPoE to work. Could
we have these options, please?

>> -f disc:sess
>>        The  -f  option  sets  the Ethernet frame types for
>>        PPPoE discovery and session frames.  The types  are
>>        specified  as  hexadecimal  numbers  separated by a
>>        colon.  Standard PPPoE uses frame types  8863:8864.
>>        You should not use this option unless you are absoˇ
>>        lutely sure the peer you are dealing with uses non-
>>        standard  frame  types.  If your ISP uses non-stanˇ
>>        dard frame types, complain!
>>
>>  -S service_name
>>         Specifies the desired  service  name.   pppoe  will
>>         only  initiate  sessions  with access concentrators
>>         which can provide the specified service.   In  most
>>         cases,  you should not specify this option.  Use it
>>         only if you know that  there  are  multiple  access
>>         concentrators or know that you need a specific serˇ
>>         vice name.
