#tcpip instead of #meshcore over a #heltec flashed with #rnode

I'ts me again with a #Reticulum question: Has somebody else issues to connect Heltec V3/V4 with Android? Current Firmware #Rnode and CE Firmware
If I click on the Node in the Pairing Menu nothing happens (node is in pairing mode).
I can use those boards with Meshtastic and Meshcore wothout issues.
Edit: iOS is does not show nodes at all.
I re-flashed multiple times via the webflasher.

New #reticulum 1.1.8 has a critical fix

Meshtastic vs Reticulum: Why Reticulum Wins for Scalable Sovereign LoRa Networks

Meshtastic is currently dominating the off-grid communication hype cycle. But when we look under the hood at its managed flooding architecture and symmetric cryptography, does it actually hold up as a foundation for sovereign infrastructure? Here is a deep dive into why I am shifting my focus to the Reticulum Network Stack.

#stationG2 is now available for #reticulum as an #rnode
https://codeberg.org/kraven/g2_rnode_firmware
also on #radicle https://app.radicle.xyz/nodes/radicle.repoducible.org/rad:z2sncR9qfxWe3V6AJBbe4GCeH1y5e

Hey #Reticulum people, is #rnode really inactive at the moment and if so, what can I use on my heltec V3 instead to use the #reticulumnetwork ?

I'm feeling pretty dissatisfied with the Heltec V4 Expansion Kits I bought. I connected them both to (and configured with) the Sideband app. Set them up so they could also act as Transport Nodes. Power set to 28db. Range is sub-optimal compared to my T-Echoes that are running 22db and get out further (using a Paradar +5db gain antenna on all units). Also not happy that RNS firmware provides no screen whatsoever so everything has to be done through the app. Reading elsewhere online and quite a few people also having this problem. I'm at the point where I may refocus temporarily on moving my efforts to concentrating on RNS over Packet Radio until I have the resources to properly build a localnet of several nodes for LoRa. I would be interested in hearing from people who have had more success with the Heltec V4's... #Reticulum #RNode #LoRa #Meshradio
