A system and method supporting the advertising of extended network access to multimedia services via a broadband access gateway is disclosed. A representative embodiment of the present invention may comprise a wireless interface and may be capable of exchanging multimedia communication between the wireless interface and a broadband network. The gateway may determine available media-related services, and may transmit information about those services to an access device that may comprise, for example, a mobile multimedia handset, a personal digital assistant, and a personal computer. The access device may notify a user of the availability of the media-related services using visual and/or audible means. The gateway may receive from the access device capability and/or subscriber related information, and the gateway may transmit service information based upon the capability and/or subscriber-related information.

1. A system for use in a network device supporting advertising of multimedia information services, the system comprising: at least one processor operably coupled to circuitry for communication via at least one wireless network, and operably coupled to circuitry for communication via a broadband network, the at least one processor arranged to, at least: determine, via one or both of the at least one wireless network and/or the broadband network, service information comprising availability of media-related services and a service advertisement of selectable services offered by the network device;download, upgrade and/or update operating code when a user device that supports services or features that are not presently supported by the network device gains access to the network device via the at least one wireless network; andtransmit the service information comprising the availability of media-related services and the service advertisement of the selectable services offered by the network device to the user device via the at least one wireless network. 2. The system according to claim 1, wherein the network device is a gateway device. 3. The system according to claim 1, wherein the user device is an access device. 4. The system according to claim 1, wherein the user device comprises a mobile multimedia handset. 5. The system according to claim 1, wherein multimedia information comprises one or more of streaming video, broadcast video, voice, digital data, text, digitized audio, digitized still images, digitized video, and/or digitized music. 6. The system according to claim 1, wherein media-related services comprise one or more of accessing, recording, playing, exchanging, transmitting, receiving, converting, and/or translating. 7. The system according to claim 1, wherein the network device is capable of downloading executable code for operating one or both of the network device and/or the user device. 8. The system according to claim 1, wherein the circuitry for communication via at least one wireless network is compliant with the Bluetooth V1.2 or compatible personal area network (PAN) specification. 9. The system according to claim 1, wherein the broadband network comprises one or more of a digital subscriber line (DSL) network, a cable network, a satellite network, a cellular network, and/or the Internet. 10. A method for use in operating a network device supporting advertising of multimedia information services, the method comprising: determining, via one or both of at least one wireless network and/or a broadband network, service information comprising availability of media-related services and a service advertisement of selectable services offered by the network device;downloading, upgrading and/or updating operating code when a user device that supports services or features that are not presently supported by the network device gains access to the network device via the at least one wireless network; andtransmitting the service information comprising the availability of media-related services and the service advertisement of the selectable services offered by the network device to the user device via the at least one wireless network. 11. The method according to claim 10, wherein the network device is a gateway device. 12. The method according to claim 10, wherein the user device comprises a mobile multimedia handset. 13. The method according to claim 10, wherein multimedia information comprises one or more of streaming video, broadcast video, voice, digital data, text, digitized audio, digitized still images, digitized video, and/or digitized music. 14. The method according to claim 10, wherein media-related services comprise one or more of accessing, recording, playing, exchanging, transmitting, receiving, converting, and/or translating. 15. The method according to claim 10, wherein the network device is capable of downloading executable code for operating one or both of the network device and/or the user device. 16. The method according to claim 10, wherein the at least one wireless interface is compliant with one or more of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and/or 802.11n standards. 17. The method according to claim 10, wherein the broadband network comprises one or more of a digital subscriber line (DSL) network, a cable network, a satellite network, a cellular network, and/or the Internet. 18. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having a plurality of code sections, each code section comprising a plurality of instructions executable by a processor for causing the processor to perform operations comprising: determining, via one or both of at least one wireless network and/or a broadband network, service information comprising availability of media-related services and a service advertisement of selectable services offered by the network device;downloading, upgrading and/or updating operating code when a user device that supports services or features that are not presently supported by the network device gains access to the network device via the at least one wireless network; andtransmitting the service information comprising the availability of media-related services and the service advertisement of the selectable services offered by the network device to the user device via the at least one wireless network. 19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 18, wherein the network device is a set top box arranged to provide signals to a television. 20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 18, wherein the user device comprises a mobile multimedia handset.
