The problem is that you cannot pass subnet information to a PPPOE client, nor can you have a single subnet running on multiple interfaces of a Cisco router. So, to get around that we have to be creative.

This base config that should get you up and running. Please adjust the basic info (username, password, interface names, etc) to match your router and account. This config should work on any Cisco with 2 ethernet ports running an IOS DSL Plus image of at least version:
12.2(4)T
12.1(5)YB4
12.2(2)XH
12.2(2)XQ

Make sure that all computers behind the router have their MTU set to 1492 or lower to avoid fragmentation issues that can render some websites unreachable.
