Did you try this in resolv.conf (quoted directly from 'man resolver')
=======================
options Allows certain internal resolver variables to be modified. The
syntax is
options option ...
where option is one of the following:
debug sets RES_DEBUG in _res.options .
timeout:n
sets the amount of time the resolver will wait for a
response from a remote name server before retrying the
query via a different name server. Measured in sec-
onds, the default is RES_TIMEOUT (see <resolv.h> ).
attempts:n
sets the number of times the resolver will send a
query to its name servers before giving up and return-
ing an error to the calling application. The default
is RES_DFLRETRY (see <resolv.h> ).
========================
If you increase timeout and attempts, then quite possibly it may help in your
name resolution when waiting for the dialup connection to be established.
