A residential gateway connecting an access network to an in-home network includes an access network transceiver configured for a first communication with an access network component via a wireline and an in-home network transceiver configured for a second communication with an in-home network component via the same wireline or at least one further wireline. The residential gateway further includes synchronization circuitry configured to synchronize a timing between the first and the second communication and interference mitigation circuitry configured to mitigate interference between the first and the second communication based on the synchronized timing.
