An apparatus in a telecommunication system provides access to telecommunication
services to subscribers at user terminals. Each of terminal is separately connected
to an access point via high speed modems and a communication network. The access
point includes high speed modems with filters. The invention permits a large number
of subscribers to be connected in a short period of time, and the subscribers can
consider the establishment of the connection as plug-and-play. Moreover, when one
initial access point is filled, subscribers are transferred to other access points,
whereby room is made available for new subscribers.
