I installed F11 as a new install rather than an update. It did not

Did I download the wrong install ISO?
No, you don't need an install CD.
"yum install <packagename>" will download the package, and install it.
Might be kind tough. Isn't rp-pppoe needed to bring up his internet
connection?
I don't know whether the install media you used has the package you are
looking for. If you have the DVD handy, then setting up a local repo
will let you use yum to install it. This thread might be of help,

If the DVD doesn't have the package you can try finding the dependencies
from services like rpbone or rpmfind and downloading the corresponding
rpms from the fedora repositories. Then you can use
$ rpm -ivh *.rpm
