Abstract
An upstream signaling arrangement for a VDSL network is provided which uses a head end data carousal to send an IP address of a programming host computer to end user set top boxes. The IP address is assigned to a specific program channel and broadcast time. Two-way communication is achieved over the VDSL network by using a set top box ATM IPPV to send and receive upstream information to the program provider via the IP address. The IP address allows the head end to relay the signals to and from the program host computer anywhere in the world using an Internet connection. This arrangement advantageously allows an end user to respond in real time to messages being received from an external programming host during the specific program.
