1. Method comprising:
- establishing relationships between home network parameters and abstractions of the home network parameters;
displaying the abstractions;
permitting a user to establish data traffic importances in a home network using the abstractions; and
implementing the data traffic importances using the home network parameters.

8. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; at least one computer-readable medium accessible to the processor and bearing mapping between network parameters and human-meaningful terms in a home network, the network parameters being useful by a computer to convey data traffic in the home network, the human-meaningful terms being useful for presenting a user interface to a person. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A residential gateway (RG) configured to establish communication between a wide area network and a home network, the RG comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one tangible computer-readable medium accessible to the processor and bearing at least one data structure correlating terms that are meaningful to a human to respective network parameters to implement user-defined traffic importance in the home network. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
