Not able to create PPPoE connection

G'day Folks ,
I have just installed FC11 from a DVD I created from an ISO.
I also have FC10 (using here) and Windoze XP pro all on separate HDDs.
I have not been able to configure my internet connection, when I try to create a new xDSL connection I get an error message; package needed 'rp-pppoe'.
I don't now how to get the package without a connection.
I have tried with and without Network Manager.
Here is some info that may be relevant.

Problem fixed :)

G'day again Folks.
Well, after many frustrating hours trying to solve my problem, I decided to wipe FC11 using
GParted Live CD, I then re-installed FC11 from my DVD.
The very first thing I did at first log-in was right click the connection icon - edit connections - DSL - Add.
I entered my user name, left the middle line blank then entered my internet pass word and clicked Apply.
I nearly fell off my chair when it connected immediately
The first install must have corrupted a package or something, I have no explanation but I'm happy it works.
Cheers Folks,
The Bandit.
