You can grab a RRC client like RRC-web https://github.com/kc1awv/rrc-web, rrc-gui https://github.com/kc1awv/rrc-gui, or a Text UI version here: https://github.com/kc1awv/rrc-tui --- ## Reply 1 **Anonymous** 路 Sun, May 10, 2026 4:19 AM i'm having issues connecting, but meshchatx is reporting a found path, are we sure that the chat is up yet? --- ## Reply 2 **Ivan** 路 Sun, May 10, 2026 4:33 AM MeshChatX does not support RRC protocol (yet) you need a separate RRC client. --- ## Reply 3 **kc1awv** 路 Sun, May 10, 2026 2:39 PM Just be aware, the RRC clients I wrote are alpha stage - I welcome PRs for bug fix / features if you're so inclined! --- ## Reply 4 **Mark** 路 Sun, May 10, 2026 5:27 PM VERY NICE! I like it :) --- ## Reply 5 **Alledegly_noderunner** 路 Mon, May 11, 2026 10:43 PM Left the RRC TUI up over night on my machine but nothing came up on the dicovery page? are you announcing that address? it picked up Torlando's RRC server and a few others but not rns.recipes. --- ## Reply 6 **Zenith** 路 Sun, May 17, 2026 12:58 AM NomadNet 1.1.0 now has a built in RRC client and [ Channels ] tab! --- ## Reply 7 **x2tyfi** 路 Mon, May 18, 2026 1:48 AM **Ivan** wrote: > MeshChatX does not support RRC protocol (yet) you need a separate RRC client. Any idea if this is on roadmap? --- ## Reply 8 **Ivan** 路 Mon, May 18, 2026 6:29 AM Yes for v4.7.0 --- ## Reply 9 **Mark** 路 Mon, May 18, 2026 9:34 AM That's awesome news Ivan! Thanks for all your work. --- ## Reply 10 **Rob** 路 Sun, May 24, 2026 4:04 PM I might be missing something, so let me ask. I built a RRC feature into my mobile app and it works, but the connection drops. I know there is a Ping/Pong check that makes the client timeout if no response. Is the intent that the client always responds to the keepalive or is the intent that the client only connects when one wants to chat? Thanks! BTW, right now it shows no destination, so I can connect anyway. --- ## Reply 11 **Anonymous** 路 Sun, May 24, 2026 4:20 PM I've been trying to use RRC on nomadnet 1.2.0 in ubuntu but it just closes nomadnet immediately if I try and view a channel. --- ## Reply 12 **Zenith** 路 Sun, May 24, 2026 4:37 PM Can you share what it says in ~/.nomadnetwork/logfile ? And also try pip install -U nomadnet to make sure you are on the latest release, which is currently 1.2.1 --- ## Reply 13 **Anonymous** 路 Sun, May 24, 2026 5:04 PM **Zenith** wrote: > Can you share what it says in ~/.nomadnetwork/logfile ?
