I have used Smoothwall, IPCOP, and Freesco with some success on a 
dial-up line.  IPCOP is nearly the same as Smoothwall.  Freesco is tiny 
but functional (for me).  In the end, the right one for you will have 
the configuration and logging features you want, as they are all 
*basically* the same under the hood,  all being Linux.

I have not used any of these with PPOE, so I can't help you there.
