I converted my third #meshtastic node to an #RNode today so I can use it as a future portable/mobile node. My #Linux #hamradio shack PC has both an RNode and high-speed TCP connectivity and is acting as a dedicated bridge between my RNode-based reticulum network and the public internet TCP-based #reticulum network. I tweaked the mode settings on the different interfaces in the ./reticulum/config files to use the #gateway and #boundary modes were appropriate. You can see the modes on the status page at https://reticulum.n7ekb.net.

For #nomadnet I setup a second node so that my rnode-based network has it's own node on the #hamradio shack PC. Look for "N7EKB's RNode Network Node" and "N7EKB's TCP Network Node" in the announce stream on the #Nomad Network.

The screenshot is of Liam Cottle's #MeshChat program running on my #Fedora #Linux laptop connected to the TCP Server interface of my #hamradio shack PC. MeshChat is an AWESOME program Liam!
