pppoeconf (some distributions call it adsl-setup or adsl-config or something) should be enough, if you have an ethernet card that is working properly, it's light is on and there's a wire connected. All you need to know, afaik, is the username and password for the connection; the rest should be obtained using dhcp, and the other pppoeconf options usually work if you select defaults. So what's wrong with your connection -- do you get an ip address, does pinging ips work, is it DNS problems or what?
