Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9917512A1] There is described a system comprising a multimedia network (3), such as the Internet, a first server (4), and at least one terminal (1). The terminal (1) comprises connection means (10, 14) which are formed by, e.g., a modem/ISDN interface in combination with a processor apparatus loaded with a web browser for setting up a link between the terminal (1) and the first server (4) by way of the multimedia network (3). According to the invention, the system further comprises a telecommunications network (5; 6), such as a PSTN network or an ISDN network, and in the first server (4) there is stored a code, such as a telephone number, as a result of which the connections means (10, 14) - during a session in which the terminal (1) is linked to the first server (4) by way of the multimedia network (3) - may automatically set up a link by way of the telecommunications network (5; 6) between the terminal (1) and a second server (4; 7; 8). Said second server (4; 7; 8) may subsequently transmit, by way of a link having a guaranteed bandwidth, data associated with a service, such as, e.g., a video presentation, to the terminal (1).
