Cisco 2600, How to select PPPoE Service Name

Hi,

I have a C2600 that I want to use as a gateway to my ISP. The ISP is providing their service using PPPoE. ISP have several PPPoE services under different Service-names, but I was not able to get the Cisco box to request the right service. In any way it is selecting one of the services I am not eligible for and the authentication fails.

Here is how it looks like on the packet level. pppoed = PPP-over-Ethernet Discovery

So as you can see the cisco box doesn't nave any service-name data oposite to windows box where the db1 is selected. I found some post on the net that I should use username@service-name in the line

ppp pap sent-username user@service-name password pass...

but this is not working for me at all. So any idea how can I make cisco box to request the db1 service?

Thanks in advance!
