My guess is that we will see a web or ftp server appear shortly with the code. -- for all your Linux questions

No. Verizon will just announce that the firmware is in a "beta test" stage and that the source will be released when it's done. No one says they have to finish. Or they can encrypt relevant bits of the source they don't want to release. VPinMAME gets away with that one. -- Rob

They distribute the router, whether they consider it "done" or not is irrelevant, they need to comply with BusyBox's terms because they have distributed it. B.) All code must be in legible, as-it-was-developed form. Both of these are spelled out quite explicitly in the GPL license. -- Interested in open source engine management for your Subaru?

I think they Just hosted it on some shitty box with a 1.5 meg QoS limit or something because I just opened 150 connections to their stupid web-server and got 137 KB/sec (vs 8 KB/sec with one connection) and while downloading from a different connection while the 150 thread download was going I got a lovely 700 bytes/sec (much slower than the 8 before) so yeah.... It went much faster with 150 connections though: Connection 148 finished ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,.. Connection 143 finished ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,. .

houkouonchi join:2002-07-22 Corona, CA clubs: ·AT&T U-Verse ·DSL EXTREME ·OCN ·Pacific Bell - SBC ·Charter Pipeline	axel, a command line downloader. For the 90 MB file I used 250 connections which totally killed their server =P Got almost exactly 150 kilobytes/sec on that. Just did axel -n 250 »url/ Most downloaders have a limit of only 10 or so connections which wouldn't help in this situation but axel doesn't really have a limit so it could be used for DDoS's on web-servers but that is really easy to do by launching a bunch of wget's limited to 200 bytes/sec as well. -- Chugging along on 3x 6016/768k DSL Extreme DSL lines and one 3008/512 ATT DSL DIrect line for a combined total of just over 18 meg download and 2350 up. yay!
