Get a Draytek 2820 router/modem and a Vigor 120 ADSL modem and do it in 
the 2820. Much easier. (The 2820 has one ADSL port and one WAN port which 
will run pppoe to the 120 modem)

However if you're up for it, then 2 separate ADSL modem/routers and read 
this: http://lartc.org/howto/ specifically section 4.
