The present invention describes a method and apparatus for reducing the access-delay and transmission latency in a system where a network terminal modem terminates to a network over a transmission media. In a network the processing of input data to be transmitted as processed data on the transmission media is synchronized with a time period when the transmission media is to be allocated for transmitting the processed data. Synchronization is achieved by determining when access to the transmission media will be granted for transmitting the processed data and synchronizing the processing of the input data with the determined time. Thereby the synchronizing results in the processing being completed at a time relatively close to the time when access to the transmission media is granted. Thus the need to store the processed data awaiting transmission is significantly reduced and thereby reducing the access delay and transmission latency.
