Methods and systems are provided for simple cable phone and internet (SCPI) device that may be coupled with a cable modem (CM) and one or more SCPI head ends, e.g., via an SCPI access point. The CM may be capable of communicating a first modulated signal with a cable modem termination system (CMTS), via the SCPI device. The SCPI device may be capable of combining a second modulated signal to the first modulated signal thereby generating a combined signal. The SCPI device may be capable of sending the combined signal comprising the first modulated signal and the second modulated signal to the CMTS and an SCPI head end. The SCPI head end may be capable of processing the combined signal and extract information and/or data associated with a service. The SCPI head end may deliver the extracted information and/or data to an appropriate gateway.

System and method of communication using at least two modulation methods

A method and apparatus for determining and displaying the throughput rate of a modem that includes a first housing, first circuitry disposed within the first housing for demodulating data received by the modem and modulating data transmitted by the modem, and a first port for outputting demodulated data from the modem and inputting data to the modem for modulating. A counting device is connected between the modem and connected equipment. The counting device includes second circuitry for monitoring traffic between second and third ports and generating the throughput rate in accordance with the monitoring. The counting device displays an indication of the throughput rate to a user of the connected equipment.
