I'd like to know how you achieved that result. Netcomm, an Australian
manufacturer of modems, use Linux in a number of their ADSL products,
for example their NB5 range but I suppose, also, all of their modern
products. They provide no acknowledgement on the box, nor in the
documentation, nor on their web. I've exchanged emails with David
Stewart <davids@netcomm.com.au>, their Managing Director, in which I
explained the legal requirements, and also pointed out some high profile
companies that had been sued over their violations. He certainly
understood the situation and promised to have the box and documentation
modified appropriately, but that was a year ago and nothing has been
done. What can be done?
