Huawei AX3 Pro WS7200 GPL Source Code Request

  HiCoins as reward: 0 (problem unresolved)

I'm the owner of Huawei AX3 Pro router. The router  uses Linux kernel, U-Boot bootloader, and other open-source GPL-licensed components. General Public License requires to disclose the source code of GPL-licensed components.

I could not find the source code for this router on https://consumer.huawei.com/en/opensource/ website, where Huawei GPL source code is published. It's also missing from https://github.com/huawei

Where could I get the source code for Huawei Huawei AX3 Pro WS7200?

I sent you an email but did not get response.
I reported this case of GPL violation - using GPL code but refusing to release the sources.
BTW, Hauwei is mentioned here (for GPL violations):

Hi, friend!
Maybe you should consult your equipment supplier.
That's all I know about open source statements because this forum is mainly for enterprise network users.
Huawei AX3 Pro is a consumer product.  
Please release source code for HG8145V5 and EG8145V5
