With the firmware installed, you can use your newly created RNode as:

- A [LoRa interface for Reticulum]({ASSET_PATH}m/interfaces.html#rnode-lora-interface)

- A LoRa-based TNC for almost any amateur radio packet application
So let's get started! You will need either a **LilyGO T-Beam v1.1**, a **LilyGO LoRa32 v2.0**, a **LilyGO LoRa32 v2.1** or a **Heltec LoRa32 v2** device. More supported devices are added regularly, so it might be useful to check the latest [list of supported devices](https://unsigned.io/rnode_firmware/#supported-hardware) as well.

## Preparations
To get started, you will need to download at least version 2.1.0 of the [RNode Configuration Utility](https://unsigned.io/rnodeconf). The easiest way by far is to simply install it with `pip`, if you already have that installed on your system (if not, go install `python` and `python-pip` now, it will come in handy later).

On the hardware side, you should see the status LED flashing briefly approximately every 2 seconds. If all of the above checks out, congratulations! Your RNode is now ready to use. If your device has a display, it should also come alive and show you various information related to the device state.
If you want to use it with [Reticulum](https://reticulum.network), [Nomad Network](https://unsigned.io/nomadnet), [LoRaMon](https://unsigned.io/loramon), or other such applications, leave it in the default `Normal (host-controlled)` mode.

If you want to use it with legacy amateur radio applications that work with KISS TNCs, you should [set it up in TNC mode](https://unsigned.io/using-an-rnode-with-amateur-radio-software/).

If you are using a **T-Beam** device, you can connect an external **SSD1306** OLED display using the following setup:
