She shouldn't have to pay someone. Either a Netvision tech should help
her, or she should move to Bezeq Beinleumi. I know, I know, about both
companies' reputations, I have been a Netvision customer since 2001
and Bezeq Beinleumi was once considered terrible. Today, Bezeq
Beinleumi gives great Linux support (they have the old Actcom staff)
and Netvision are thieves who want our money, not our business. They
deserve neither.
