The Solution

You must also set the commandTimeout property on the ADODB.Command or ADODB.Recordset being used. Otherwise those objects will use the default time limit of 30 seconds because they do not inherit the time limit from the associated ADODB.Connection instance.

Example Using VBScript in ASP 3:

set con = createObject("ADODB.Connection")
con.open connectionString
con.commandTimeout = 60
set command = createObject("ADODB.Command")
command.activeConnection = con
command.commandType = adCmdText
command.commandText = sql
command.commandTimeout = 60
command.execute
response.write command.commandTimeout 'This is now 60 seconds.
