Try placing dashes (-) after the phone number.  Dashes's in the number indicate
a 4 second pause before dialing the next digit.  The system will just consider
the dashes part of the number, so while the computer thinks it's waiting to 
dial some more, the call will be going through.

Alternatively, in the chat script (or dialers entry) you may add '\p' to delay
for .25 to .5 seconds or '/d' to delay for about 2 seconds.

Hope this helps, feel free to contact me for more help if needed,
