MQTT
Our MQTT broker is uplink-only and designed for fixed nodes across the state to serve as gateway nodes. Its purpose is not to bridge gaps or extend mesh coverage, but to report local traffic to our own web-based tools for analytical data and metrics to assess the mesh's performance. This role is best suited for stable, well-placed nodes with reliable coverage.
For setup steps, see How to configure your repeater to upload to the CT Mesh MQTT system.
Testing note: MQTT messages sent to channels such as #test are mirrored into the Discord #test channel by a bot. This is useful for checking whether the main mesh can hear a new repeater, or whether companion nodes behind that repeater are making it back to the wider mesh.
