 ==== How To Enable Telemetry on Your Node ====
-  * **If you run XRouter:** XRouter has been automatically sending telemetry since v504j, allowing the system to be developed and refined. But for best results, please update to version 504m. If you wish to DISABLE telemetry, please add the following directive to XROUTER.CFG: "NETMON=0.0.0.0:0".

+==== How To Confirm That Your Node Is Sending Telemetry ====
+Go to [[https://node-api.packet.oarc.uk/]] and look in the "**Reporting Nodes**" section for your node's callsign.
+//(The list is organised in descending order of activity, so a new node may be nearer the bottom of the list.)//
+If your node is not in the list:
+  * Does your node have an internet connection? An internet connection is required for this service.
+  * If you type "**ping node-api.packet.oarc.uk**" from the operating system's command line, does your system resolve the address and display an IP address? If not, you have a DNS or firewall issue.
+  * Do you get a ping response from the server? If so, that's good news.
+  * The "node up" report may have been lost. Make a test connection from your  node. This will cause it to report the packets.
+  * If your node still doesn't show up, make sure you have LOCATOR defined.
