Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for reconnecting a telephone modem with a reduced delay by reducing a time associated with retraining. A wireline communication connection is initialized by a telephone modem to train a set of parameters. The parameters are stored in a memory structure. The connection is used for communication, and is then terminated. At a later time, the connection is reestablished by accessing the parameters from memory and using them to reconnect the modem with a reduced set-up delay. Another method involves coupling to a first physical layer and establishing a session with a server, and then decoupling from the first physical layer while maintaining the session. Later, the session is resumed using a second physical layer. At least one of the physical layers involves a local interface unit that includes a landline connection to a WAN.
