        You'll find all needed settings at interfaces>wan in the webgui. By default the PPPoE will be always connected unless you enable dial on demand mode. You have to set an idle timeout then too. Btw, if you use dial on demand and a client from inside your LAN tries to connect to the internet it will bring the line up. This means a client frequently checkking mails with pop or running an IM client for example will keep the line permanently connected again.
