Inase of NAT, dialing from modem is more secure cause it will be assigned live ip and your machine will be on private ip, behind nat.

usually pppoe dialing from machines/devices is more stable than dialing from cheap adsl modems. unless you have some modem like Speedtouch/Alcatel.

I work in a broadband ISP and many times we configure adsl modems in bridge mode and sometimes even we dont use any authentication method, cause alot of modems/devices/routers have not much good pppoe implementation.
