Hello

some time ago I managed to prepare for myself a working version of the firmware with new features.
At the moment already implemented such things as
- separate chain overclock
- fan settings
- zabbix_agent monitoring with special template

A brand new interface for the administration panel is planned

I will accept the wishes for the any functional you need - write me to tarakanfw@gmail.com

the firmware will be with a little devfee

Interesting. Especcially SNMP is a good thing to have.
How much do you charge for it ?

The only downside i see is potentially bricking the Miner when flashing it - not sure how possible it is.
Also not sure what bitmain says if you send in a bricked Miner with custom FW.

pretty sure their is a signature on the firmware aka you'd brick it or it wouldn't take it if signature doesn't match.

Why miners will use a new firmware with dev fee? Already they will run without a dev fee?
I think it will not worth to use this firmware.

i would love to pay premium and get a custom firmware BUT... my concern is not the devfee but security, how would i know you didn't plant a backdoor. It will take some time and 1000s of miners to confirm legitimacy of your work.

Also not sure what bitmain says if you send in a bricked Miner with custom FW.

ok, i'll try to include snmpd service for monitoring.

devfee will be about 2%

flashing procedure is like basic upgrade. moreover, the firmware is based on original image. so brick chance is the same

if you need to send your box by warranty - upload the basic version and send it...

why do you charge 2% fee? 
does your firmware increase the profit?
It doesn`t need any snmp support to monitor with zabbix.
All you need is a wrapper for the miner api.

2% is insane. Nobody will do that.
40 Cents a day for some shiny interface ? The API-monitoring for the antminer is sufficient and does not justify giving you 40 cents / day / miner.

if u need special functions write me email from 1st post
i don't plan to make any backdoor in this firmware. just small devfee for research and my spent time

by the other side - some time and thousands miners are used firmware with included antbleed and what?..

My opinion on this topic:
1st : tarakanfw - Newbie account created 2 days ago - Thats a bad sign alreday  Grin
Why pay 2% dev fee ? Are my miners w custom firmware going to be generating more income ? NO
Im going to lose my warranty : YES
Pay 2% just for better monitoring ?  Grin Cheesy YES
There is a possibility for a backdoor code in the custom firmware ? YES
Can i brick my miner flashing a custom firmware ? YES


The only downside i see is potentially bricking the Miner when flashing it - not sure how possible it is.
Also not sure what bitmain says if you send in a bricked Miner with custom FW.

How the hell can i upload a "basic version" if my miner is totally bricked Huh   Grin Cheesy

Why would I install this on my miners?  Does it provide better mining software?  Will it make me more money?  If the answer is no then PASS!!

It would take a single person running the firmware with a packet sniffer to monitor the traffic and test it.

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.
