I set up a PPPoE firewall with Windows clients on the backside for an office 32 days ago (with help from the folks here and some other links, thanks) and so far it has only had 1 reconnect. Thats a lot better than our offices that use Cable connections. Since it is a remote office I also set it up to e-mail me the new ip # whenever it changes, for monitoring/support purposes.
