For PPPoE, your *ONLY* option is a NetGear RT314 router. This will act as a DHCP server for your DSL, and PSO will connect. These go for about $200 in stores, though $140 online. (but it's sold out at Buy.com and Outpost.com)

The RT311 is a one port router, not four port like the RT314, but I'm not sure if it works. It's considerably cheaper though.
