 Victor,
 
 Please try two things:
 
   1. Make sure that you don't have a problem with MTU sizes. Some ADSL
      customers with PPPoE have slightly smaller MTU sizes than normal
      ethernet. Make sure that ICMP unreach packets are not firewalled
      or filtered on your side.
 
   2. There was a bug in the TCP options in FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE that was
      giving problems with a smaller number of CPE devices for ADSL and
      Cablemodem customers. The problem is fixed in 7-STABLE. Only upgrading
      the kernel is sufficient.
 
 I hope this helps.  If not, please provide some tcpdumps so we can see
 the packets that are exchanged.
