Yes. Will also work. Will create your default gateway dynamic upon connection. The other way is static, which i thought you wanted to do because you did your DNS that way.
use-peer-dns=no
Could be yes. This will update your DNS from PPPoe connection.

If you put ADSL modem in bridge mode and make PPPoE connection with mikrotik, through the modem, this will solve this. Make use off PPPoE instead of Ether. Will also just have to Nat the PPPoE connection on Mikrotik, since ADSL modem wont do it in bridge mode.
