Does anyone have any suggestions on how to write a batch file to disconnect
the internet connection? I am using boardband modem.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

You can use devcon.exe
(http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/1/f/11f7dd10-272d-4cd2-896f-9ce67f3e0240/devcon.exe)
to disable or enable your network adapter. You'll have to put a certain
amount of work into automating the process, same as for the other
suggestions you received in your parallel posts.

Thank you very much for suggestions
When I am online, there is a monitor's icon to show online status, when I
disconnect the internet connection, I just right click this icon and select
disconnect, and this is what I want to do to disconnect the boardband
connection.
Can devcon.exe perform this trick by using Excel's macro - VBA to activate
it? which should not involve any IP or modem hardware setting at all?
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

You need to ask an Excel newsgroup whether a VBA script can invoke an .exe
file.
