What is TCP Proxy?
TCP Proxy allows you to connect the official Meshtastic mobile app (or other TCP-compatible clients) directly to your MeshDash dashboard. It creates a bridge so your app thinks it is connected directly to a physical radio.
How to Connect
- Open the Meshtastic App on your phone.
- Go to Settings → Radio Configuration → Connection (or Network/TCP).
- Enter the IP address of your MeshDash server.
- Enter the configured port (if not using the default 4403).
- The app will connect, sync nodes, and receive live messages.
Configuration Options
Port: The network port the proxy listens on. Default is 4403. If your physical radio is using 4403 on the same network, change this to 4404.
Max Clients: The maximum number of simultaneous app connections allowed.
Session TTL & Queue: How long the proxy remembers a disconnected device, and how many messages to buffer. When the app reconnects, missed messages are delivered.
Cloudflare Tunnels: Raw TCP connections are not supported through standard Cloudflare web tunnels without additional configuration. Use a local IP, VPN (Tailscale), or port forwarding.
