ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for establishing communication between entities in a communication system. The time required to establish network connectivity for CPE devices can be reduced by prioritizing and/or reducing contention between the CPE devices. The CPE devices can be divided into acquisition groups and assigned specific upstream channels on which to range. The CPE devices can randomly or pseudo-randomly range on upstream channels.
