PPPOE_TIMEOUT should be at least 4 times greater than LCP_INTERVAL. 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 has PPPOE_TIMEOUT=20 and
LCP_INTERVAL=80.  These values cause the interface to go down every 20 seconds
of inactivity.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run adsl-setup to configure pppoe
2.Bring the interface up: ifup ppp0

verified by viewing the /var/log/messages.

Expected Results:  The interface should stay up.
