I have this modem as well now, and I'm trying to get it to work. So
far, no joy. More details below.

This doesn't mean anything. The rp-pppoe scripts aren't very
verbose. You can hack them (look at adsl-start and adsl-connect) to
give more information, which you need. Specifically, you need to see a
dump of the ppp protocol information. I can send you my hacked scripts
if you want. 

Currently, I'm seeing what looks like a correct LCP PAP authentication
request from ppp, which is immediately refused by the modem or
Bezeq. No idea why.

Anyone knows if we need this field?

Or maybe this one?
