Are you seriously suggestion that offering the GPL'd binaries for

where to locate the source code (from third party) in its support
database?

What is "the same place" when it comes to a website?
And that firmware is being distributed as upgrades to a router;
the customer purchasing that router will already have received
this Verizon-branded manual
<http://support.actiontec.com/doc_files/MI424WR_Rev._E_User_Manual_20.8.0_v3_GPL.pdf>
and an accompanying disk containing full GPL information.

Your attempts to be "holier than the FSF" to demonstrate
non-compliance with the GPL when there is actually clear
compliance are quite pathetic.
