You can't have it all -
Where would you put it ?

I'm simply anwering 'yes' to the connection dialog, I then have to wait up

You probably have 'reporting' enabled on your software -or- you've
asked your browser to check and DL email before going off-line. Just
right click on the tray icon and disconnect to prevent 'reporting'
until you turn it off in the various programs..
