I have exactly the same problem.  I have to try connecting until I get one
burst of ring tone or else after logging on nothing works properly.  Perhaps
this is a problem with the NOS software for the Atari.  I have an XLink 288E
modem that I bought from System Solutions.  If I use STiK and I don't get a
burst or ring tone then everything works OK - this would tend to indicate that
it has something to do with NOS.
