If you want to use VR2800's LAN4 port as WAN port you have to switch its 'Operation Mode' to 'Wireless Router Mode':

As far as I know you have to setup the correct PPPoE settings when in 'wireless router mode':
Provided you use FTTP and do not have BT Digital Voice.
You will need to enter the correct login details.
Username bthomehub@btbroadband.com
Password BT
To be able to configure these settings when VR2800 is in 'wireless router mode' connect to VR2800 by cable (LAN1 through LAN3) or wirelessly.
You can use the BT community for source of information as well:
