There's a couple of ways to attack this.

If I bring up Trumpet Winsock and I already have carrier, it doesn't try to
dial, it just startup.

On the other hand, you could do what we all used to do before PPP and all
the neat stuff that people use now was available. Login from the PC and use
'sz/rz' or whatever protocol you want to transfer files back and forth. This
is the way I transfer huge files. I download them to my IP site. I start the
download and disconnect. Then I call back later and download using 'sz/rz'.
Much faster.
