# Wallets and network

Connect a wallet and prepare funds on Robinhood Chain.

FlowRouter swaps on Robinhood Chain mainnet. You need your input token and ETH for network fees on that chain.

## Connect a wallet

Select **Connect wallet** in the app. The connection interface supports email sign-in and compatible Ethereum wallets, with options including detected browser wallets and WalletConnect.

The app uses Privy for authentication and wallet connection. Email sign-in can create an embedded Ethereum wallet for an account that does not already have one. Signing in does not fund the wallet or submit a transaction.

Check the connected account before approving a swap. Switching accounts changes balances, allowances, and the account to which a transaction is bound.

## Select Robinhood Chain

The wallet can connect while another EVM network is selected. FlowRouter requests Robinhood Chain when needed for the swap.

| Network setting | Value                                            |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| Network name    | Robinhood Chain                                  |
| Chain ID        | `4663`                                           |
| Native currency | ETH                                              |
| RPC URL         | `https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com`        |
| Explorer        | [robin.etherscan.io](https://robin.etherscan.io) |

These are mainnet settings. Robinhood Chain testnet has a different chain ID, `46630`. Follow Robinhood's [official wallet setup guide](https://docs.robinhood.com/chain/add-network-to-wallet/) when adding the network manually.

## Prepare your balances

ETH on Ethereum mainnet or another chain is a different balance from ETH on Robinhood Chain. Connecting a wallet or switching its network does not move funds between chains.

FlowRouter's documented swap flow exchanges tokens within Robinhood Chain. If you need to move funds onto the chain, use the transfer or bridge instructions from the relevant provider and verify the destination network.

Keep ETH available even when selling an ERC-20 token: both a token approval and a swap can require network fees. WETH is an ERC-20 token and does not replace native ETH for paying gas.

## If the connection stalls

Open your wallet and check for a pending connection or network request. Confirm that the intended account is selected. If you reject a wallet prompt, return to FlowRouter and start the action again when ready.

See [Troubleshooting](/flowrouter-docs/use-flowrouter/troubleshooting.md) for transaction and balance issues.
