Disconnect Internet when idle

How do I have Windows XP automatically disconnect from
the internet when it has been idle for X number of
minutes or if not that then to disconnect when a call is
received? I think older versions of windows this was in
the dialing properties but I have searched everywhere to
no avail.

Thanks,

there is a tv commercial ad for hardware that will do
this for you but can not remember the ad. keep watching
tv.
