Ok lets see if I can give you a clue on that.. Or maybe rmrucker will see this too.. I have seen this before so lets give this a shot..

Do you have a Firewall installed if so remove it reinstall later...
Make sure when you installed the enternet program it saw the server it was supposed to connect to and not being put up without the detection...
check the properties of the network card that this FAQ was done.. http://www.dslreports.com/faq/faq#156

You didn't use the wrong cable to the modem/bridge did you some are crossover and some are straight cable

Just a few thought on it...
Anyone else with PPPoE DSL have a idea
