Sorry, I don't have experience with NTP and dialup-connections, but depending 
on how trustworthy your mobile phone provider is and what your requirements 
are, getting the timestamp directly from the GSM network (NITZ) might be an 
alternative  option, even without incurring data charges.

(see e.g. https://coders-home.de/en/sync-time-on-linux-via-gsm-1065.html)
