1. Open XP's "Help and Support Center"
2. In the Search box type : PPPoE , and hit enter.
3. Click on "Make a broadband connection using PPPoE".

Contact and ask your adsl provider.

Depends what your ISP uses. If PPPoA then PPPoE should be disabled and vice
versa. Check that you really need PPPoE (which I believe isn't as common as
PPPoA) with your ISP.

and read the part that says Why is Dial-Up Modem or PPPoE not available
using the Wizard?
