That's most likely the source of your problem.  I don't know what you're
using for NAT on your W2K box, but I've done installations of W2K where LAN
activities worked fine on one box and not on another, with the exact same
install process.

Personally, I would focus your efforts on getting PPPoE working on one of
your FreeBSD machines.  It's a lot easier to tell what's going on using
FreeBSD (thanks to copious amounts of logging) than Win2K.
