What GPL projects are Ubiquity using? I would have thought they would be using something FreeBSD derived as they sell networking gear which leads me to believe that whatever the infringement entails it’s not related to the core networking components or software.

Ubiquiti's stuff is all based on Debian Linux. You can even SSH in, enable the upstream repos, and apt-get stuff. But they patch a bunch of packages and of course the kernel is their own build for their hardware.

Everything is Linux based. Debian specifically if I’m remembering correctly on the access points. The routers are based on the vyatta code that brocade open sourced.
