Deleting it may cause other unexpected problems. If it's not doing any harm, leave alone.

The Smartlink modem is a piece of hardware - so you can't remove it from your programmes!
If you are referring to software provided by BTOW, you can remove it using Add/Remove Programs. This won't remove the modem or the ability to use the modem with other programs.
(Don't remove the modem from the Device Manager page - if you do it'll just come back again automatically as Windows will automatically detect it).

If you're not using the 56k modem (which you're not, if you have a BBand connection), get rid. It won't cause problems if you go through the proper Windows deleting procedure, as it isn't anything to do with your PC operation.

I would keep it as you may need it if your broadband goes belly up

I would keep it for now you might go back to dial-up if there's a problem with your broadband
