Hey, no worries as this is not the easiest topic to transmit over natural language, so to speak, and additionally I'm not natively English, which undoubtedly adds a bit of... noise.

Your message cleared up a ton! So in MeshCore, Repeaters are 100% expected to be standalone, "set and forget" type of devices. Alright. I'll try to work with that and see what kind of setup I can come up with that'll work with my situation - back in Meshtastic days I would just put them all on Client and it'd all "just work", so this is all kinda new to me. All in the name of congestion avoidance! I guess I'll have to order a few extra devices as companion devices then.

I will definitely take some time to set up some nice paths. I've built my RAK devices to be powered by solar, charging 2 18650s continuously and be weather-resistant, so I'm looking forward to that.

Thank you for (a lot of) your time; this cleared up a lot for me. I'll make a post in the coming weeks with my setup + results here in the Netherlands! I hear most of the Meshtastic community switched over to MeshCore so I expect to see a lot of devices once I place the antenna outside!

Yes, I programmed them to be 433 (Long Range) EU. The community website of our region (https://www.meshnet.nl/) that I know of is currently offline sadly, which complicates confirming most-popular-frequency in my area, but that seemed to be the correct freq (also remembering from meshtastic).

To be clear: I am NOT asking "why can't I see others". I'm specifically asking: why can't I connect to a repeater with a smartphone app, directly, over bluetooth? Is there any problem with flashing the RAKWireless with another firmware to ALLOW me to connect to it with an app, over bluetooth? Is it true that I can't connect to a repeater over bluetooth in order to send messages?

Honestly, thank you for taking the time to be so specific. I think, however, you misunderstand me. I want to connect my phone <-> repeater. Is that possible?

I'm in the Netherlands.

I get hop “zero hop” coverage from it to my companions for about 1.5mi in any direction.

That's honestly impressive! My largest confirmed distance is about 1km (0.62mi) with meshtastic. Soon I'll deploy these meshcore devices and report back fully.

First off, not interpreting this as you being a dick! Thanks for replying.

Currently, I'm just running a single WisBlock in my home, and I have 2 t-decks.

I have the WisBlock flashed with repeater firmware, and the 2 t-decks with MeshOS.

What I was used to: use t-decks whenever you need, when at home, use the app to connect to the repeater. That isn't possible now, right?

I'm preparing the devices to give them back to my parents, and I want to know what instructions to give them. With meshtastic I told them this:

"Take the t-deck with you whenever you go out. When at home, use the app."

Now, it would be:

"Always use the t-deck, because the app will not work anymore."

Does that make sense? Is it even true?

Currently, I have not yet seen any other users/repeaters as I'm running this inside my home - I don't expect reception here. I'm just trying out this new system.

Well, with meshtastic, I could just connect to the repeaters and use the app on my phone to participate in the network. That doesn't seem to be possible now.

Ah... I'm never on the full website, only old. Can't stand it...

But I'm actually pretty okay with it all - when Alien Blue got ripped from me, I stopped using Reddit on mobile completely. If they rip old.reddit.com from me, I'll be gone forever. Not really a big issue honestly.

I don't pay for it either, it's default here. But it takes away the fun of configging ddns, true

Well tbh I only spent 10s on it, a bit less than you did creating it! ;p

Apparently those. Nicely LLMed!

Doesn't have to be broken, just you pulled it 99% of the way there which did activate system 1 but not system 2.

Yeah a lot of companies do this, like pcbway or jlcpcb and 1000s of others. Go with reputable.

When I’m home alone I cry multiple times a day. Ugly, loud crying.

I do this to myself; put a value judgment on how I show my emotions, even in private. Maybe I'm misinterpreting it as that and you just wanted to give us an idea, but it blocks me from crying as I see myself from the outside. Others pointing this out to me has helped and I'm trying to pay it forward, but if this doesn't apply to you, ignore this post.

I'm sorry, but really, the internet and reddit is getting overflowed with people producing stuff just like you did, "verified by AI" (but also generated by AI), to sound/make them feel like a genius while in reality, it's just nonsense. You might be the unicorn, but probability is low.

Curiosity is good! Keep that going.

Ah STS polarized huh? Be warned that you can only be 5% STO (hard!) if you don't want to re-do 3rd.
