Unrecognized nodes?
Got my first two devices on tuesday and I've been traveling around with them! Seems the t114 has much better range but is a less convenient package of course (and damn amazon didn't ship my GPS module, so now that is on the way with an upgraded antenna and a heltec v3 cause why not?) ... read full post

Help getting started?
Hey everyone, I hope this is ok to post here! I've been putting off getting into meshtastic for a while now but the time has come to play around with it. I have done some research but I always like to talk to real people if possible for real world advice and experience, not just youtube salesman and AI top ten lists. I have minimal experience with radio, but some. ... read full post

Anyone dive into Reticulum with meshchat, sideband, and nomad?
I'm just digging in to it and setting up "Rnodes" with my heltec v3's and sending files and voice is cool.
The nomad network is a markdown internet, and it all works over Lora or any other network.
Lots to learn still but it looks promising as a mesh data network.

OK... so what can you do with this?
I'm interested in this project, but I am unsure if there's anything actually useful or fun you can do with it.
So tell me about the fun stuff you've built!

asymmetric SNRs
So there is a router 3.7 miles from my house that i can hear between 2 and 5 SNR but its hearing my transmissions between -4 and -18 SNR with a -10 average (5 traceroute tests). Shouldn't it be able to hear me just as well as I can hear it? I can only think of two possible causes for this. ... read full post

So I just saw a video where somebody made a bulletin board system over the mesh like it's fucking 1999 or something and it got me thinking Would it be possible to send web pages over the mesh as long as they were small? ... read full post

connecting different speed meshes together
In densely populated areas, such as cities, it seems like it would be more advantageous to use shorter, faster presets, such as MediumSlow, MediumFast, ShortSlow, or ShortFast instead of the default LongFast. ... read full post

How is that even fucking possible?
Last night, my node showed that it received information from a node 100 miles away, and I dismissed it as just a weird artifact. But tonight, my node is showing that there are three nodes that are around 220 miles away. I do not have MQTT enabled on downlink so they are definitely over RF. But how is that even fucking possible? I live in an area where the mesh is not super well built up and there are only a few people locally that have nodes and I would expect to get nodes from a lot closer than 200 miles away or even 100 miles away considering there are two decently large cities only 70 miles away. Also, so far I have only gotten these messages at night. ... read full post
