If you run the pppoe executable, it's the "-t" option.

If you run the rp-pppoe.so plugin (as it appears you are doing), it's
hard-coded, unfortunately.  The system sends 3 PADI packets and waits
5 seconds after each one for a PADO.  If you need to increase this,
the only way is to recompile the plugin.  Edit src/pppoe.h and
increase MAX_PADI_ATTEMPTS and/or PADI_TIMEOUT.

Regards,

Dianne.
