man 4 pppoe - you're missing part of the pf.conf file:

MTU/MSS ISSUES
     Problems can arise on machines with private IPs connecting to the
Inter-
     net via a machine running both Network Address Translation (NAT) and
     pppoe.  Standard Ethernet uses a Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of
1500
     bytes, whereas PPPoE mechanisms need a further 8 bytes of overhead. 
This
     leaves a maximum MTU of 1492.  pppoe sets the MTU on its interface to
     1492 as a matter of course.  However, machines connecting on a private
     LAN will still have their MTUs set to 1500, causing conflict.

     While pppoe(8) has an internal option, ``mssfixup'', which is enabled
by
     default and takes care of this, pppoe users have to rely on other
meth-
     ods.  Using a packet filter, the Maximum Segment Size (MSS) can be set
     (clamped) to the required value.  The following rule in pf.conf(5)
would
     set the MSS to 1440:

           scrub out on pppoe0 max-mss 1440

     Although in theory the maximum MSS over a PPPoE interface is 1452
bytes,
     1440 appears to be a safer bet.  Note that setting the MSS this way
can
     have undesirable effects, such as interfering with the OS detection
fea-
     tures of pf(4).
