Backdoor?

Backdoor?

Bezeq can replace the firmware without talking to you without being onsite,
so yes they have a backdoor in your router.

Personally I prefer using a decent wireless router of my own (running
openwrt preferably) and having a simple bezeq box connected to it's WAN
port, like that bezeq stays outside my network, and if they only had a
wireless bezeq box for whatever reason the Bezeq_free is guaranteed to be
100% separate from my network.
