Is this a violation of the GPL?

If you go to the Home Hub 3,4,5 option, the size seems very small, and when  
you down load it, it does not appear to be the source code for anything, just  
many lines of this sort of thing:

If those pieces contain GPL'd code as would seem to be indicated, then it  
definitely is.


You could try asking them politely about it first. Perhaps it's a semi-honest  
mistake.

It's not something for me to do, its something for the people who own the  
copyright to those packages to do surely?

It appears that they have supplied a script used to download the scripts for  
the free software - download and look at the one for Home Hub 5.
