I agree with Bakunin that you leave us all guessing which isn't good for proper diagnosis.
However, given the scenario you describe, I'm going to guess what the problem is. Absolutely, no guarantees though.
The thing that's changed is your internet connection and the router. Everything worked at the previous site.
It's quite possible that your server is configured to be the gateway (and proxy) for internet access and is configured to be a DHCP server.
Almost all new routers are configured to provide the DHCP service by default but you can only have one DHCP server for a site.
So probably your new router is a DHCP server, is providing the workstations with ip address leasing and gateway/dns information, and so the workstations can access the internet. The server has the old gateway ip address still hard configured but that's not there anymore so it can't access the internet.
If I'm correct you need to stop the new router being a DHCP server and then reboot all your workstations. Also, configure the new router's ip address into the server. Also, check the DNS service is configured properly for the new internet connection/provider.
I repeat, I am just completely guessing here. Hope that helps.

pppoe-connect
PPPOE-CONNECT(8) System Manager's Manual PPPOE-CONNECT(8)
NAME
pppoe-connect - Shell script to manage a PPPoE link
SYNOPSIS
pppoe-connect [config_file]
pppoe-connect interface user [config_file]
DESCRIPTION
pppoe-connect is a shell script which manages a PPPoE connection using the Roaring Penguin user-space PPPoE client. If you omit con-
fig_file, the default file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 is used. If you supply interface and user, then they override the
Ethernet interface and user-name settings in the configuration file.
Note that normally, you should not invoke pppoe-connect directly. Instead, use pppoe-start to bring up the PPPoE connection.
pppoe-connect first reads a configuration file. It then brings up a PPPoE connection. If the connection ever drops, a message is logged
to syslog, and pppoe-connect re-establishes the connection. In addition, each time the connection is dropped or cannot be established,
pppoe-connect executes the script /etc/ppp/pppoe-lost if it exists and is executable.
The shell script pppoe-stop causes pppoe-connect to break out of its loop, bring the connection down, and exit.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
pppoe-connect uses the following shell variables from the configuration file:
ETH The Ethernet interface connected to the DSL modem (for example, eth0).
USER The PPPoE user-id (for example, b1xxnxnx@sympatico.ca).
PIDFILE
A file in which to write the process-ID of the pppoe-connect process (for example, /var/run/pppoe.pid). Two additional files ($PID-
FILE.pppd and $PIDFILE.pppoe) hold the process-ID's of the pppd and pppoe processes, respectively.
By using different configuration files with different PIDFILE settings, you can manage multiple PPPoE connections. Just specify the con-
figuration file as an argument to pppoe-start and pppoe-stop.
