This is not possible in 1.2 releases.

Support was added for this in 2.0 but I don't know if it actually works.

Forget PPPoe for multiwan. The best setup is to have the modem in half bridge mode, where it gives you an external IP directly.

The first thing i do is putting the modems in DHCP spoofing mode, and Pfsense in DHCP mode, so that you can get the external IP and gateway IP.

Next i switch the pfsense wan interfaces to static mode, and enter manually the adresses. This avoid DHCP headach like getting a 10.0.0.138 IP when the link is down at the DSL side.
