Unable to connect via PPPoE

[akshye]

While using PPPoE connection under Fedora Core 6, after configuring the connection, after

"Activate" the following error was poped-up

Cannot activate network device

/sbin/adsl-start: line 214: 3392
Terminated $CONNECT "$@" >/dev/null
2>&1

my connection is xDSL. and the ethernet card is Realtek's RTL-8139 connected at eth0. I have initially connected my system to LAN, which automatically gives me an IP address. this connection is done successfully. then while connecting to net via PPPoE the above error is popped up
