Yes and no. Some servers seem to get picky and might not let you in even if UP3 is disabled. I use separate installs of Il-2 1946 to deal with this.

You can get along without mods, they just increase the amount of servers available to you. Is it worth it, well, I'd say yes.

Nope. They have to be installed manually.The mod business indeed requires some degree of computer savviness. So, not for the weak hearted.. or have some close help at the ready. Getting into teamspeak with someone who knows what to do is recommended. As suggested, a squad might be a good option

Certainly not. Or I heavily doubt that any squad would ban their users from using mods. Atleast in non-squad games. You can always use a "clean" install if the squad requires it.
