Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for using communications channels corresponding to frequency bands subject to cellular network, e.g., LTE, interference and/or other interference are described. The methods are well suited for use of cable networks where communications over a coax cable or via cable device may be subject to LTE interference. In various embodiments data traffic is classified based on whether the traffic corresponds to a protocol that supports a retry communications mechanism in the event of a communication error, the type of traffic data and/or the priority of the traffic data. In some embodiments data being communicated using a protocol which supports a retry mechanism are routed over channels subject to interference even if, in some cases, the packets correspond to data which has a higher priority or QoS requirements than packets, e.g., best effort packets, which are transmitted using a protocol that does not support a packet retry mechanism.

Claim (Index 10):
The communications method of  claim 5 , further comprising:\n monitoring for signals which are part of a retransmission mechanism indicating a failure to successfully communicate a packet over channels in said first group of communications channels; and changing at least one of the level of packet interleaving and error correction coding used on at least one of the communications channels in said first group of communications channels in response to a change in a packet transmission failure rate for the communications channel determined from said monitoring.
