Delete everything related to PPP and PPPOE from your system.
Your DSL router is handling PPPOE for you and you're only confusing
yourself by trying to do PPPOE over the ethernet connection to your
router.

Simply make sure your eth0 is configured in /etc/network/interfaces
something like this:

   auto eth0
   iface eth0 inet dhcp

- and that you have dhcp-client or dhcp3-client installed.
