Does it work with a configuration such as this?
inet 123.123.123.1 255.255.255.128 NONE \
pppoedev em2 authproto pap \
authname '<username>@solcon.net' authkey '<password>' up
dest 0.0.0.1
! /sbin/route add default 123.123.123.1
I'm using a configuration like that with static IP over pppoe
from a german ISP and it works fine.
You might see some hints logged to /var/log/messages if you
run 'ifconfig pppoe0 debug'.
