Well I connect via rp-pppoe to a bridged ADSL modem.  One recent gotcha 
is that iptables userspace has to be updated to match the latest kernel, 
how old is your distro?  What version iptables?  Last I checked 1.4.1.1 
was latest available from netfilter.org.

This could be due to your firewall rules?  More people would have 
noticed if their networking died ;)  (Unless you're running a e1000, all 
bets off).
