## Overview
Meshtastic Channels: Can create a _somewhat_ secure method of communication on the same mesh network. The channel can be encrypted to prevent normal people from listening in on the traffic. But, it could probably be easily [cracked](https://crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/46559/what-are-the-chances-that-aes-256-encryption-is-cracked) by determined individuals. See [Channel Config](/docs/settings/channel) for more info. It is also possible that your location could be triangulated by determined individuals.

## Overview
External hardware can be connected to your device using a GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) interface. Using GPIO, you are able to connect external buttons, circuits, rotary encoders, sensors and more. Many of our modules offer solutions to implement additional functionality.
Soldering is likely required when attaching items to your device, so practice your skills elsewhere before trying on your radio. If you're not careful or don't know what your doing, you can damage your hardware.
## Features using External Devices
Many of our modules require external hardware to be attached to the device.
### Canned Message Module
Requires use of the [rotary encoder module](#rotary-encoder-module). The rotary encoder acts as an input to select one of up to 50 customizable messages. This way you can send canned messages without needing to pair your device to a phone.
### Telemetry Module
Broadcast telemetry to your mesh! Temperature, Humidity, Pressure, & VOC Gas are all options that are currently available with the supported sensors.
### External Notifications Module
Use lights, buzzers, or speakers to alert you of incoming messages.
### Rotary Encoder Module
Currently used only for the [canned message module](#canned-message-module), this module allows you to connect a rotary encoder to be used as an additional input to the device.
### Serial Module
Available for ESP32 based devices, the serial moduleallows you to send messages over the mesh by sending strings over a serial port.

## Overview
Captive Portal: Using Meshtastic, you can create a separate Wifi network for you join your phone or computer on a mesh network. See [Web Interface](/docs/software/web) for more info. This is ideal in a situation where you are remote, such as in the forest, on a mountain, or if there is a major power/internet outage such as in a storm or other disaster.

## Overview
Mesh Networking: An interconnected network by using [low-power radios](/docs/hardware) to connect other low-power radios using LoRa to be able to send and receive messages and data. This can be completely separate from any other networks such as the internet. You can start small and get two devices to start experimenting. Do not expect to stream music or videos as LoRa is intended for smaller, lower bandwidth type uses such as text communication.
As of 1.2 you can connect up to 32 devices to the network. In 1.3 we are working on having 64-80 devices connected to the network.

## Overview
Before you flash your device it is prudent to verify that we have proper connectivity with the device being flashed. Outlined below are steps that can be taken to verify connectivity and, if necessary, to install the appropriate drivers. If you end up needing to install drivers be sure to reboot your computer afterwards to verify the installation is complete.

### Initial Setup
#### Setup the Radio
When it arrives, install your antenna and make sure you install the battery correctly. Reversing the battery can damage your device. Make sure the antenna is on when you power up the board.

## Flashing Firmware
If your device already has Meshtastic flashed to it, you can update it over the air (OTA). Otherwise, you'll need a computer and a **data** USB cable. Flashing firmware can be done in the following ways:
- Install using Meshtastic Flasher:
This all in one application will download the appropriate firmware, detect your device, flash the device, and allow you to configure your settings.
- Install using manual method:
Manual firmware files can be downloaded from the [Downloads](/downloads) page.
The manual firmware installation method will also depend on whether you have an ESP32 based device or a nRF52 based device. See our [hardware section](/docs/hardware) to determine which microcontroller your device is based on.
