Abstract
In the prior art, broadband terminals are supplied to the Internet via an associated router. Incorporated between the router and the Internet are selection servers for selecting services (Service Selection) which are used to handle the entire traffic for the Internet. A problem with this is that the selection server is configured in the communication path to the Internet, which means that the dynamics of access are reduced. The invention provides a remedy for this by arranging the selection server parallel to the router, which removes it from the path between the router and the Internet.
