1. A data relay device for obtaining, from a network, media related to an incoming call, the data relay device comprising:
a modem connected to the network and configured to receive the incoming call in data packets; an adaptor connected to the modem and configured to:
at least strip header fields of the data packets in producing an output, andobtain the media from the network; and a base station connected to the adaptor and configured to:
determine whether the incoming call has a corresponding record in one or more records of the data relay device,obtain the media obtained from the network by the adaptor from the output of the adaptor using the corresponding record in response to a determination that the incoming call has the corresponding record in the one or more records of the data relay device, wherein the media obtained from the network by the adaptor and obtained from the output of the adaptor comprises at least a customized ringtone that corresponds to a caller from which the incoming call is received, andtransmit the media obtained from the network by the adaptor and obtained from the output of the adaptor to the customer premise equipment device, wherein the adaptor and the modem are further configured to obtain the media from the network in response to an instruction from the base station to obtain the media.
