You need to do to things :
 o ! /sbin/pppoectl pppoe0 max-auth-failure=3D0 (in ifconfig.pppoe0)
 o options PPPOE_TERM_UNKNOWN_SESSIONS (in your kernel config file)

The first tells the pppoe driver to never give up trying to connect. The
second tells the driver (at compile time) to delete any unknown sessions
encountered. Usually this can happen, and has the effect that, as the BAS
still has a reference to your connection (though there is no more connection
at your side), trying to establish a new connection doesn't succeed.
