Do you mean the busybox source code? It is available. But there's also a
whole bunch of closed source modules in router software not available in

Actiontec makes the source code available from its own website,
for the versions of firmware that are on its routers. They do
not refer people to BusyBox's site. Free and non-free programs
may run on the same computer side-by-side. Do you have reason
to believe that the non-free modules on the router are derived
works of GPLed code?

"We currently have 185 open tickets (ie reported GPL violations) at
gpl-violations.org"

All sorts of things may be reported; they must then be investigated
to determine whether there is a basis for action. As demonstrated by
this newsgroup, there are many people who do not understand the GPL,
or copyright, or anything...
