Why would TB try to establish a connection if you have "no automatic
redial" checked?
The reason will be that at least one of the accounts has "Use specific
Network..." checked with dial-up information under Account /
Properties / Network. Any spefici netowrk setting will ignore the "no
automatic" instruction.
You have to set up your dialling instructions *inly* under Options /
Network & Admin.
