You don't need any special stuff to use MTNL. You can either use the DSL modem as a router, in which case you just use DHCP to get address, default router, etc., or use your machine's native PPPoE with the DSL Modem in bridge mode (which is the way I prefer to use it).
Are there any specific advantages of using the modem in bridged mode (PPPoE) as compared to the default setup?
Mini-HOWTO on using the MTNL modem in bridged mode:
