If you plan to never use dialup again, I would disable it.

1) Onspeed.com's server caps the data rate to about 300k bits/sec (my estimate)

2) Their compression software reads ahead quite a bit (has to, for effective compression) so there are long gaps in the data. On dial-up or GPRS these aren't that visible but they are very visible on ADSL.
