I'm not sure exactly who your ADSL provider is but having gone
through a similar error situation with SBC Yahoo DSL service I'd suggest
checking with your providers tier 2 tech support that the line is
actually properly configured for PPPOE. In my case they had the line
configured to ignore the LCP connection request packets so my system was
failing to see their access concentrator. Once the tech corrected this
problem I could see the AC using pppoe-discover or pppoeconf without a
problem.
Now for me actually authenticating became the issue after I
could see their AC as it seems their RedBack configuration was denying
my /28 subnet configuration being handed to it via RADIUS. As of this
writing I'm still not authenticated and it's been since the 20th that
they said this order was completed.
