Connect a repeater to the backbone
The backbone joins RF islands over the internet and feeds this map. A repeater opens a UDP session to the hub, so it works behind NAT and on 4G. When the hub is unreachable the repeater carries on exactly as before.
- Run meshcore-repeater with the backbone support.
- Send the hub operator your callsign and your repeater's public key: the
pub= line of repeater.key.
- Once it is on the allowlist, add this to
meshcore-repeater.conf and restart:
The hub key is pinned: the repeater only trusts a hub that signs with it.
