Abstract

A system and method of prioritizing data for use with a shared bandwidth communication network provides the benefit of prioritizing some data traffic over other data traffic. The prioritization may occur at least at a gateway to the shared bandwidth communication network. The prioritization may be implemented by selectively supplying data to clients such that some data traffic is prioritized over other data traffic. An interface may be provided to communicate data between one or more clients and the shared bandwidth communication network.
