Is your domain part of a larger AD organization?

If so, the location of Global Catalog Servers and types of links between sites can greatly impact login time. Microsoft recommends that at least one DC in each site be designated as a Global Catalog Server.

If your DNS isn't set up correctly for the clients. You will have long login times. Make sure the clients(including the domain controller it needs to point to itself) only point to the Ad/DNS server...no ISP Dns servers. Use
Dns forwarding to listyour ISP DNS Servers for internet access.
