you do need to quote the # character, but backslashes
aren't necessary.

ip/pppoe -s 'you#num@there:password'

should work fine.

if there are single quotes already in your user name or
password, you need to double them.  if your password
is "don'ttell" then you'd use

ip/pppoe -s 'you#num@there:don''ttell'
