Please... Please give us root access to the controller.  You could be receiving free coding by opening this up, its very frustrating that you insist the firmware be closed source.  Sandor111 even agrees that the software should be open.  Sandor111 has done a fantastic job with the new firmware but there is still holes that need to be filled, IE: worker names ( not all the pools I mine on have the same worker name for security reasons) but with V3 I have to make all three pools worker names the same.  Also wifi, some of us have modded the controllers memory fron 4mb to higher and have the space to add wifi back but cannot. 

 I reiterate please for your customers open the firmware up, it is built on top of open source software and is only right to give us root access to the controller.

Thanks for your time and hard work,
Please take what I, and alot of other people agree with into consideration.  The code could be upgraded by the hundreds of us who would like to approve upon it.  We need root access!

hi,
we cannot open root access now. only controller can protect us. many people they steal our code. and Gridseed dont want to pay us for the coding.
thanks.
