At the time of writing this wiki page, the pfSense version used was 2.1.2 and it is recommended that you use that version (or a later one) as 2.1.0 and 2.1.1 are affected by heartbleed and some PPoE config bugs.
 
Now, although pfSense 2.1 introduces a lot a very interesting new capabilities, it is admittedly still a bigbit buggy when it comes to PPoE (which can be a concern in the UK as it is quite common). In that regards, the old 2.0-[[IPv6]] beta range was a lot more stable, however it was its [[IPv6]] support that was in turn rather flaky. This is why the old wiki page (See [[Router_-_PFSense_(beta_2.1)]]) could still be a valid option (unless your security rules dictates you must be on the latest).
 
Finally, please note that this was tested on an A&A ADSL line connected via TalkTalk Wholesale. I would expect it to work the same when behind BT Wholesale, but your mileage may vary.
