⚠️ Important: You must set your region before transmitting. Operating without the correct region may violate local radio regulations. See the region configuration guide on meshtastic.org for details.

Modem Presets

Preset Range 速度 SNR Limit Best For
Short Turbo ~1 km 21.9 kbps −5 dB Dense urban with line-of-sight; data-heavy applications
Short Fast ~3 km 10.9 kbps −7.5 dB Urban neighborhoods; buildings within a few blocks
Short Slow ~5 km 5.5 kbps −10 dB Suburban short-range; moderate building density
Medium Fast ~5 km 5.5 kbps −10 dB Suburban areas; moderate building density
Medium Slow ~8 km 1.1 kbps −12.5 dB Suburban/rural; moderate range with slower speed
Long Turbo ~10 km 4.4 kbps −10 dB Similar range to Long Fast but with 500 kHz bandwidth; faster throughput
Long Fast ~10 km 1.1 kbps −12.5 dB General use (default) — balanced range and speed
Long Moderate ~20 km 0.34 kbps −15 dB Rural with some terrain; occasional use
Lite Fast ~5 km 5.5 kbps −10 dB EU 866 MHz SRD band (125 kHz BW); comparable to Medium Fast
Lite Slow ~10 km 1.1 kbps −12.5 dB EU 866 MHz SRD band (125 kHz BW); comparable to Long Fast
Narrow Fast ~5 km 2.7 kbps −10 dB EU 868 MHz band (62.5 kHz BW); avoids interference with other devices
Narrow Slow ~10 km 1.1 kbps −12.5 dB EU 868 MHz band (62.5 kHz BW); comparable to Long Fast
Long Slow ~30 km 0.18 kbps −17.5 dB ⚠️ Deprecated — still selectable but may be removed in a future firmware release
Very Long Slow ~40+ km 0.09 kbps −20 dB ⚠️ Deprecated — still selectable but may be removed in a future firmware release

Choosing a Modem Preset

The modem preset controls the fundamental tradeoff between range and data rate:

  • Slower presets use more spreading, making signals decodable at weaker signal levels (lower SNR limit). This means longer range but fewer bytes per second.
  • Faster presets pack more data per transmission but require a stronger signal to decode.

Practical guidance:

  • Urban mesh (many nodes, short distances): Use Long Fast (default) or Short Fast. Higher speed means less airtime congestion when many nodes share the channel.
  • Rural/sparse mesh (few nodes, long distances): Use Long Moderate. Range matters more than speed when nodes are far apart.
  • EU 866/868 MHz regulatory compliance: Use Lite Fast, Lite Slow, Narrow Fast, or Narrow Slow — these are optimized for the EU SRD/868 MHz bands with narrower bandwidths.
  • Fixed infrastructure links: Use Short Turbo or Long Turbo for dedicated point-to-point links with good antennas and line-of-sight.
  • Mixed environments: Stick with Long Fast — it’s the community default and ensures compatibility with others in your area.

⚠️ Important: All nodes on the same channel must use the same modem preset. Nodes with mismatched presets cannot communicate even if they share the same frequency and encryption key.

💡 Tip: The range estimates above assume flat terrain and modest antennas. Elevation advantage (hilltop, rooftop) dramatically increases effective range. A well-placed Router with Long Fast can often outperform a ground-level node with Long Slow.
