 I have acquired a card like yours:

xl0: <3Com 3c905-TX Fast Etherlink XL> port 0xa000-0xa03f irq 5 at device 11.0 on pci0
xl0: Ethernet address: 00:60:97:7b:1c:20

xl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        options=8<VLAN_MTU>
        ether 00:60:97:7b:1c:20
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active

PPPoE works just fine. The only difference from yours is that I run it
between two PCs over crossover patchcord.
