At the home, a Qwest Digital Gateway Box interconnects Qwest Choice™ TV & OnLine to individual television sets, personal computers, telephones and audio equipment to achieve a "whole house digital solution." The Digital Gateway eliminates the need for additional set-top boxes and cable modems. This translates into a truly 'last mile' broadband network for voice, video and high-speed Internet services.

Customers can access a variety of state-of-the-art features through the Digital Gateway, including:

• 100% digital television programming
• Discounted movie packages
• Pay-Per-View movies and events
• Audio, commercial-free music channels
• Very high speed Internet access
• Parental control security
• On-screen Qwest Caller ID^TM *
• Qwest Voice Messaging ^TM indicator light*

The Digital Gateway differs from traditional set-top boxes in that traditional cable boxes are designed to deliver one video and audio channel to just one TV/VCR at a time. The Digital Gateway, however, delivers multiple and independent video steams to all TV's in the home simultaneously.

*Integrated calling features require separately available subscription to Qwest Caller ID and/or Voice Messaging.
