According to one aspect of the invention, an electronics package includes an enclosure and one or more thermal energy generating components disposed in the enclosure. A gateway is employed to connect to either a PSTN or an Internet communicating with the user terminal over the constellation so that the users within a given frequency range are distinguished one from the other employing orthogonal codes. The objective of the invention can be attained with a solution wherein the calls are routed from the customer terminal to a server for relaying as an assignment to the service terminals of service providers.
