[CentOS] pppoe problems

I'm having problem connecting to my isp with my sangoma s518. Everything 
seems to run smooth and wanrouter are training to connect....but forever..

Now, to test the connection i mounted up my standard nic and my old dsl 
router, to establish a standard basic pppoe connection..... and I can't 
with centos.

I follow this standard setup:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/sysadmin-guide/s1-network-config-xdsl.html 


tested on two different centos installations, but no. I spent 4 hours I 
think and needed two minits on my debian installation.

Both rp-pppoe and ppp are installed, please someone tell me what am I 
missing before I totally loose it :-) ?
