Thanks, Rahul.  Unchecking "log on to network" did the trick for me.
I also unchecked "NetBEUI" and "ISP/SPX Compatible", as someone else 
suggested on a modems newsgroup.   I also noted that one ISP is telling
his users that the long delay is normal.  

Now my only problem is that I miss those 35 second catnaps.
