### Firmware Modules
[Modules](/docs/settings/moduleconfig) extend device and mesh functionality beyond core functions. These are also implemented mainly in the firmware repo above. Typically, you would add functions in the protobufs repo and the device repo to implement module functionality. You probably also want to have some client or device, use or interact with the module. This is where Device Interface support comes into play.

This allows users on the local mesh to communicate with users on the internet. One or more channels must also be enabled as uplink and/or downlink for packets to be transmitted from and/or to your mesh (See [channels](/docs/settings/config/channels#downlink-enabled)). Without these settings enabled, the node will still connect to the MQTT server but only send status messages.

## (Not) Sharing Your Location
Telemetry is shared over your [PRIMARY channel](/docs/configuration/radio/channels#role). This means that if your node has acquired GPS coordinates from an integrated GPS chip, or from your mobile device, your coordinates will be sent to the mesh over this channel, using it's defined encryption (if any).
By default the PRIMARY channel's name is LongFast with the encryption key "AQ==" (Base64 equivalent of Hex 0x01). If this is left unchanged, your location will be shared with all nodes in range that are also using the default channel.
### Creating a Private Primary with Default Secondary
If you'd like to connect with other Meshtastic users but only share your location with trusted parties, you may create a private PRIMARY channel and use the defaults for a SECONDARY channel.
1. Ensure you have not changed the LoRa [Modem Preset](/docs/configuration/radio/lora#modem-preset) from the default `unset` / `LONG_FAST`.
2. On your PRIMARY channel, set anything you'd like for the channel's name and choose a random PSK.
3. Enable a SECONDARY channel with a blank name (will default to LongFast) with PSK "AQ==".
4. Since the radio's frequency is automatically changed based on your PRIMARY channel's name, you will have to manually set it back to Channel 20 (in LoRa settings) in order to interface with users on the default channel.
To quickly test this configuration, scan your region's QR from [this folder](https://github.com/meshtastic/meshtastic/tree/master/static/img/configuration/qr-private-primary-example/). Remember to generate a new PSK for your private channel before sharing with your trusted nodes.
## Rebroadcast "Public" Traffic
Meshtastic nodes will rebroadcast all packets if they share [LoRa modem settings](/docs/configuration/radio/lora#lora-config-values), regardless of encryption (unless [Rebroadcast mode](/docs/configuration/radio/device#rebroadcast-mode) is set to `LOCAL_ONLY`).
:::info
If you would like your nodes to include/expand the "public" mesh, you must use the default [modem preset](/docs/configuration/radio/lora#modem-preset) `LONG_FAST`. If you change your PRIMARY channel name, you must manually set the LoRa channel to 20.
:::
## Chat Channels VS LoRa Modem Channels
Meshtastic uses the word "channels" to define two different configuration properties: [Messaging Channels](/docs/configuration/radio/channels) & [LoRa Modem Channels](/docs/configuration/radio/lora#channel-number)
### Device Config: Channels
These configure "message groups" and include your PRIMARY and SECONDARY channels. All SECONDARY channels use the same LoRa modem config as your PRIMARY channel (including LoRa channel number).
There are 8 total chat channels. Channel 0 is your PRIMARY channel, with channels 1-7 available for private group messaging and/or special channels such as [`admin`](/docs/configuration/remote-admin).
### Device Config: LoRa: Channel Number
This configures the frequency the radio is set to. Check out the [frequency calculator](/docs/overview/radio-settings#channel-frequency-calculator) to view the relationship between "channel number" and radio frequency.
## Best Practices
- If you are part of a large mesh and don't know what a setting does, don't change it (unless you're super curious).
- Leave your [MAX HOPS](/docs/configuration/radio/lora#max-hops) set to 3 unless you're sure you need more (or less) to reach your destination node.
- Leave your [ROLE](/docs/configuration/radio/device#role) set to `CLIENT` unless you're sure another role would suit the node's purpose. For example, MQTT nodes do not need to be set to `ROUTER`.
- TEST your settings and hardware before you install in hard-to-reach locations.
- Connecting a node to the [public MQTT server](http://localhost:3000/docs/configuration/module/mqtt#connect-to-the-default-public-server) may publish the locations of all nodes in your mesh to the internet. This will also add every globally connected node to your node database and potentially flood your mesh with all types of packets.

Meshtastic requires the Arduino bootloader on RAK WisBlock nRF52-based boards. The process of converting the bootloader only needs to be performed once.
Here are two ways to flash the bootloader:
## USB Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU)
1. Install [Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
2. Install [adafruit-nrfutil](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_nRF52_nrfutil)
```shell
pip3 install adafruit-nrfutil
```
3. Download the required bootloader: [WisCore_RAK4631_Board_Bootloader.zip](https://github.com/RAKWireless/WisBlock/releases/download/0.4.2/WisCore_RAK4631_Board_Bootloader.zip)
4. Connect your RAK device by USB.
5. Flash the bootloader
```shell
adafruit-nrfutil --verbose dfu serial --package ./WisCore_RAK4631_Board_Bootloader.zip -p /dev/ttyACM0 -b 115200 --singlebank --touch 1200
```
Note: The serial port name (`/dev/ttyACM0`) may differ depending on your operating system. Make sure to identify the correct port name for your setup.
6. Continue with the normal [flashing instructions](/docs/getting-started/flashing-firmware/nrf52/drag-n-drop)
## Debugger
This conversion requires the use of either a [DAPLink](https://daplink.io/) or [J-Link](https://www.segger.com/products/debug-probes/j-link/). The most reasonably priced and available is the [RAKDAP1](https://store.rakwireless.com/products/daplink-tool).

## Create a Send Message Entity
It is possible to create an input text box to send messages to your mesh from within Home Assistant.
### Input Text Helper Entity
First, create an input text helper entity. The preferred way to configure an input text is via the HA interface at Settings > Devices & Services > Helpers. Click the add button and then choose the Text option. Make a text input helper with a max length of 190 to be on the safe side. See example below:
![HA Input Text Helper](/img/software/mqtt/ha_input_text_helper.png)
### Create a Send Message Automation
This automation will check the send box for changes. After typing a message, either hit enter or click off the box and the automation will send a text string in JSON to the mqtt broker. Make sure to update the channel name and device ID in the example below.
```yaml

You can also share channel settings with a remote network. If you use the default Meshtastic MQTT server, packets are always encrypted. If you use a custom MQTT broker (ie set `mqtt.address`), the `mqtt.encryption_enabled` setting applies, which by default is false. You can also specify your own private MQTT broker and specify authentication for that broker to bridge several mesh networks together, via the internet (or just a local IP network).
