another "in case nobody answers":

Here in Holland ADSL is also provided through an ADSL Modem wich is hooked 
to an ethernet card in the PC. The modem is then connected to the splitter 
(whcih seperates ADSL and regular PSTN phone frequencies).

However, unlike with most cable modems, that simply use TCP/IP over 
Ethernet, ADSL requires the PPtP package (sort of PPP over ethernet). I 
know there is a PPTP for LINUX package out there (which I suppose can be 
used with LINUX compatibility mode on BSD) but I haven't heard of a 
dedicated PPtP package for  BSD.

Cheers,

Luke
