Claim:
1. A method, in a multicarrier transceiver, the method comprising: receiving at the multicarrier transceiver from another multicarrier transceiver over a connected communications channel a first message indicating a repetition rate for DMT symbols; modulating at least one bit of a second message onto at least one DMT symbol; determining a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Checksum) for the second message; modulating at least one CRC bit of the CRC for the second message onto at the least one DMT symbol; repeating the at least one DMT symbol with the modulated at least one CRC bit of the CRC for the second message according to the repetition rate indicated in the first message; and transmitting from the multicarrier transceiver the repeated DMT symbols with the modulated at least one CRC bit of the CRC for the second message.
