you need to contact the cable company pronto. if you are losing the connection every 5-10 minutes, you should be able to demonstrate this to them pretty conclusively. it might be the cablemodem, it might be the cable, it could be a lot of things...make the call.

if you have a second computer, try connecting that to the cablemodem instead (to eliminate the possibility that it is the nic or windows-related on pc #1). and try a different ethernet cable while you're at it...
