Casa Node Update — 12.7.18

Better Incoming Lightning Connections, Bug Fixes

This week’s update goes out to all of you Lightning Explorer lovers who’ve been wondering why your node’s connection address isn’t publicly visible! (crowd goes wild)

Improvements for incoming node connections

If you have to set up port forwarding — either because uPnP isn’t working or because you don’t want to use uPnP — we’ve now added in the ability to tell the Lightning Network what port you opened. This will make your node visible to other nodes using autopilot (so they’ll auto-open channels to you), and it will allow others to find your connection code in explorers.

You can check to see if your node is discoverable via your Connection Details.
