I missed the first part of this message so don't know exactly what you are attempting to achieve. But, if you are trying to isolate your computer from the net without turning off the modem and hence your home phone, have a look at your firewall. Some have an option to stop all traffic which allows the computer to be isolated without turning off the modem. I currently use Vipre which has this option and use it frequently.

Yes, I could turn off the Cable Modem as you suggest.  But if I do this,
then I also turn off my Home phone, which goes through this Cable
Modem.  I use Comcast for Internet and Phone, and both go thrugh this
Modem.

I was hoping to put some sort of a Switch between the computer and the
Modem. If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original
