In reply to Cogidubnus Rex.

approx 20 years ago I successfully "ran" two parallel PPPoE connections over one ADSL line (through a single ADSL modem) - just added a switch between modem and existing router to attach a second router. Primary connection was to our normal ISP and the second one was 750h of free AOL :D - just for funsies.

And I think there was a time where it was common for gaming consoles (XBOX 1-2, PS2 ?) to offer the option to establish a PPPoE connection over their ethernet port (to get a public IP I think - bypassing the existing router). At least some router OS had an option to enable or disable PPPoE pass-through.
