Simultaneous processing needed?

I have an application that connects to remote machines
with valid IP addresses. However, if I try to connect to
a machine that does not exist, at least 45 seconds goes
by before my application times out and moves to the next
machine. I am interested in reducing this timeout to
about 20 seconds, consistently.

Is there a way to reduce the timeout value, or do I need
to do this with simultanous processing? I don't really
know what is the best way to solve my problem.
 
Sounds like you might be better off doing multiple threads per connection.

As far as I know the TCP connection timeout timer is not something that you
can currently change. I hear that it will be a changeable property in the
next version of the framework though.
