You did not give enough info ( as the others said).
Is this 'shut off' always at 10 minutes? Or..You feel it is 10 minutes? Could it be 2minutes or 5 or 8? One thing you can do is call your phone company (If it is a dialup modem) and have them run a signal/strenght test on your phone line. If the signal is low there will be click sounds on the line and the modem will detect this as a dissconnect order. I spent a couple of days reconfigureing my PC and talking to the ISP tech support to finally calling the phone company and finding out it was thier line signal all along.

put finger to keyboard and composed: I spent a couple of days reconfigureing my PC and talking to the ISP tech support to finally calling the phone company and finding out it was thier line signal all along. Your modem probably has built-in diagnostics which can produce a last-call report. This will tell you about the quality of your phone line. Information your modem can tell you about your connection: http://modemsite.com/56k/diag.asp Troubleshooting your modem: http://modemsite.com/56k/trouble.asp - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email.
