Modem dialing delay

[Kurt Kehler]

I have succeeded in connecting to my ISP using two methods!  Why does it
take the modem so long to begin dialing?  I haven't timed it but it feels
like 30 to 40 seconds.  I thought it was caused by one method having a
TIMEOUT 60 line, but the other method uses no Timeouts.

Thanks,
