That's very drastic! If you have another phone across the line, usually
just lifting the handset will upset the connection enough to make the
modems disconnect.

Or you could unplug the phone line at the wall socket or where it plugs
into the modem.

I prefer an external modem for many reasons, but one of them is that I
can switch it off separately to disconnect if all else fails.
