Try sudo pppoeconf, it will present you with a setup wizard, just accept default values and enter your username and password, it'll ask you if you want to connect at boot-time, preferably answer this with no if you don't want to be connected automatically on boot. After it is completed you can start your network connection with sudo pon dsl-provider and disconnect it with sudo poff.
