I just added call waiting to my phone line and I use dial up, if somebody decides to call me while I'm online is it going to knock me offline? What else should I know if anything?
 
Call waiting has a nasty habit of kicking people who use dial-up offline. However your phone company probably had a code that will allow you to disable call waiting for the duration of a phone call. So if you add it to your dial-up number than people will get a busy signal or go directly to voicemail if you have it.

like he said.. mine w/ telus was 70#, or #70 or something like that... just go: #70, xxx-xxx-xxxx (damn area code dependant area)
 
Add *70, to the dialing string (at the begining so it's *70,xxx-xxx-xxxx). The *70 turns off call waiting, and the comma is a short delay between that command and the rest of the number.
