Please start Emacs like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
emacs -Q -l tramp --eval '(setq tramp-verbose 10)'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Open your plink connection. When it has been timed out, there's a Tramp
debug buffer, please send it to us.
