What Ubuntu version are you currently using? Network Manager does not work well with some version so I used ppoeconf on a colleagues laptop so he can dial PPPoE directly.

Try the terminal commands below:

sudo pppoeconf

This will prompt you several questions. Click all "YES" if you are unsure of the answer to a question. Do NOT forget to input the correct username and password.

Now, to activate the dialer, you can just input the following command below on the same terminal:

sudo pon dsl-provider

HTH.

You can use Network Manager to manage DSL connections, click on System > Preferences > Network Connections, then click on the DSL tab and click the Add button. Input username, password and service address, and leave all other settings as default. If the MAC address field (in the Wired tab) is empty, click on System > Administration > Network tools and in the Devices - Network Tools window choose the Network Device for your computer (usually 'eth0'). Under the Interface Information section, check the value for Hardware address and copy and paste this value in the MAC Address field in the Editing DSL Connection window. Click the Connect Automatically button and input your computer login password, if necessary. The computer should try to connect with the inputted info. If that doesn't work, refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE

Can you help with this problem?
