... because checking the other accounts (the process invokled by
ALT-F2) was not satisfactorily completed, so a new dail attempt will
be made. This can only be the the global connection specified. This
process does not know why the connection broke and will make a next
attempt.

You want to redefine the algorithm. Whichever way you connect (as long
as it is by TB), you want TB to not disconnect, even if it's unrelated
accounts that are not finished checking.
Hmmm; yes that it is possible.

It must. There are no instructions to check #1 with that special DUN
setting, only instructions to check the other accounts. So TB cannot
use #1's settings, it must use the global settings. I think that's
quite correct behaviour.
