Depends upon the quality of the modem. Cheap Chinese routers tend to act up in case of over heating. But reputed brands remain stable when when it is heated up.

Mine is kept on 24x7. Am using a D-Link 2540T.

Also check up USB only modems, which draw power from the computer.

Downloading Power Shutdown
Shareware: NOT TRIED
Quote:
Power Shutdown is an auto-shutdown program.
It has 11 commands:
Logoff, restart, turn off the computer, play media files, screen saver, standby, disconnect the modem, and more.

You can choose to launch the commands...
at the exact time, or
after a specified time has elapsed, or
when certain conditions are met.(For example, when the file downloading is done, Power Shutdown will disconnect the modem automatically)

1.Mention your modem make and model ?
Are you using a cable modem ? You mean ADSL MODEM ?

2.Needed Power supply details of the PS adapter for the modem.

NO. This way better.

computer on +modem switch ON=Modem ON
computer OFF +modem switch on= Modem OFF
AC input to modem from "ON" condition of Computer Power switch ( Front Panel) Soldering required.

3.Also any spare power cable for CDROM /floppy drive etc,
in the computer. ( from the SMPS PSU of computer )
