I have tried various combinations of settings in these two tools (start eth0 at boot, don't start at boot, enable/disable alias support, use hardware address, etc.) but to no avail.  It reports my NIC manufacturer string but the light on the DSL modem for the NIC connection does not come on and PPPoE and eth0 inits fail with timeouts.
