Two versions of this home page are known to exist under this URL - version 1 and "HomeBB", a revamped version of the MSN TV home page. As of writing, version 1 of the home page has some image assets that have been missing to time, and so far no trace of any HTML belonging to the "HomeBB" revision seem to exist on the internet.

Two versions of this home page were offered under this URL - a version optimized for dial-up (looks like the home pages shown in promotional pictures) and a version for broadband, which got revamped around 2005. The kind of page that would be sent to the box would depend on either a <code>WANProvider</code> query parameter included in the URL when UserCheck sends the service list, or from cookies(?). While missing image assets for the dial up home page have been recovered, no trace of any HTML belonging to the broadband home pages have been found as of writing.
