# Connect to Testnet0

Testnet0 is available on:

* TESTNET RPC <https://testnet.ama.one/>
* TESTNET testnet.ama.one
* TESTNET 46.4.179.184

Remember: Do not use your mainnet keys to interact with the testnet.

To connect the explorer or wallet on Testnet0 you need to redirect the `nodes.amadeus.bot` RPC to point to the testnet RPC. The easiest way to do this is via hosts file by adding an extra line

```
vim /etc/hosts
46.4.179.184 nodes.amadeus.bot
```

Another way is via host resolver in chrome

```
--host-resolver-rules="MAP nodes.amadeus.bot testnet.ama.one"
```

Next your browser when opening the explorer or wallet will give an SSL error so open a new Chrome profile dropping all security checks:

<pre><code>mkdir -p /tmp/chrome_testnet0

google-chrome  --user-data-dir="/tmp/chrome_testnet0" \
--no-first-run --no-default-browser-check \
--ignore-certificate-errors --disable-web-security \
--unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=https://nodes.amadeus.bot

<strong>[OPTIONAL] if you did not use hosts file
</strong>--host-resolver-rules="MAP nodes.amadeus.bot testnet.ama.one"

</code></pre>

Now you can open the following URLs in that isolated browser profile and all will work

* <https://ama-explorer.ddns.net/> &#x20;
* <https://wallet.ama.one/>
