An apparatus for connecting user equipment to a broadband network includes a chassis having attachment points for connection to a supporting surface and a guide that permits entry of a communication cable. A cable termination unit may be mounted on the chassis such that a cable that is led through the guide can be connected and provided with a termination to which functional connections can be made. A cover may be mounted on the chassis in such a way as to be removable and reattachable to allow access to the chassis. The chassis may include mounting points for connecting at least one functional module to the communication cable and for allowing different communication functions to be provided to user equipment that is connected to the network via the apparatus.

A graphical user interface provides access to communications and other applications in a home environment by utilizing icons that are consistent with a refrigerator/magnet metaphor. A background is displayed on a touch screen, and one or more virtual magnets are displayed on the background. The virtual magnets may be dragged to new locations by a user. Tapping on a virtual magnet activates a corresponding application. The virtual magnets can further exhibit magnetic properties, such as alternatively repelling or attracting one another. When an application is activated, an application window is made to appear on the background, preferably in the form of a sheet of paper. The corresponding virtual magnet can be made to appear to be affixing the sheet of paper to the background, thereby reinforcing the refrigerator/magnet metaphor.
