Methods and systems are provided for managing communication between a digital subscriber line access multiplexer and customer devices. A downlink communication signal may be communicated to a customer device concurrently via a direct customer line connected to the customer device and at least one other customer line connected to another customer device. Communication of signals may be managed, the managing including configuring the downlink communication signal to generate a total received signal at the customer device. The total received signal corresponds to a combining of a first received signal, corresponding to communication of the downlink communication signal via the direct customer line, and a second received signal, corresponding to crosstalk effects, at the customer device, of communication of the downlink communication signal via the at least one other customer line. The downlink communication signal is configured to increase power of the total received signal compared to the first received signal.

Digital subscriber line access multiplexer for sending communication signals to customer devices

Methods and systems are provided for sending and/or receiving communication information by a digital subscriber line access multiplexer to customer devices at one or more customer premises, via customer lines. In particular, the digital subscriber line access multiplexer may be configured to send a communication signal, for a particular customer device, concurrently via more than one customer line. The digital subscriber line access multiplexer may enhance a communication signal, received from a particular customer device, via a particular customer line, such as using a second communication signal received concurrently from the particular customer device via a second customer line.
