Client-side, indeed I was setting timeout before connecting - Thanks for the tip.
Server-side, I was setting the timeout on the TcpClient after TcpListener.EndAcceptTcpClient.

And the problem I'm observing is server-side.  So unfortunately this workaround doesn't work for me (for this situation).

The question still stands about what happens if Dispose() hangs during garbage collection...
