I've thought about that too.  There is a standard for what FiOS is doing (I
think it's IPTV) and the coax IP connection in the router is touted in sales
materials.

However, beyond a ping, I haven't been able to get a response from the set
top boxes.  I'd probably have to sniff the coax to see anything.  Frankly, I
don't want expend effort that might void my contract :-)
