A wired network may be used to carry signals for a wireless network, in a frequency-shifted manner, to extend the range of the wireless network. A wired network may detect signal interference emanating from a wireless service provider, and received through a leak in the wired network's infrastructure. Devices may be installed or leveraged in the vicinity of the interference to extend the wireless service to geographic areas that may have poor reception. The devices may amplify wireless downstream signals and transmit them wireles sly, and may receive upstream wireless communications and transmit them upstream in the wired network's protocol. 1receiving, by a computing device and at a premises, a wireless signal associated with a first timestamp;receiving, by the computing device and at the premises, a wired signal associated with a second timestamp and a velocity of propagation constant associated with a velocity of the wired signal;determining, based on a comparison of the first timestamp and the second timestamp, a time difference;determining, based on the time difference and the velocity of propagation constant, a location of a leak; andreporting the location of the leak to a service provider.. A method comprising: This application is a continuation of and claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/198,488, filed on Jun. 30, 2016, and entitled “Communication Network.” U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/198,488 is a continuation of and claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/740,848, filed on Jan. 14, 2013, and entitled “Communication Network” (now U.S. Pat. No. 9,473,613). The entire contents of these applications are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.Wired networks, such as coaxial cable optical fiber and traditional twisted-pair telephone networks, typically employ a vast network of wiring for carrying communication signals. Users of such networks enjoy a wide array of features and services, but demand for these ...
