You could first try this:
 ip link set eth0 up
 netcfg pppoe

This should work. As Javier pointed out below, you can put the 'ip'
command into a PRE_UP statement in your netcfg profile.

Thank you :)

today I've got some time for my Arch Linux. Thomas, your hint does the job. Parallel to your reply I found
 ifconfig eth0 up
 netcfg pppoe
which does job too.

Cheers!
