This is for Jaguar; I don't remember if it's the same in 10.1. Open 
System Preferences and click Network. Choose Internal Modem from the 
Show pop-up menu, click the PPP tab, and click PPP Options. Check the 
"Disconnect if idle for __ minutes" option. Enter in the box the 
desired number of idle minutes prior to disconnecting.
