This happens shortly after i get on the internet to hours after i have logged on. when i check the phone line i hear a straight signal but not the changing signal that usually is heard. is it the modem or my phone co?

Definitely phone company related ---- ask the cable company if you can use a dial-up modem with your cable phone service - I'd like to know what they tell you. Aloha! Richard.
