# Connecting to Mainnet

You can connect to Omchain with any wallet that supports custom networks. Metamask is one of those wallets and in this guide we are going to use Metamask to connect to Omchain.

### Steps

First you can install[ Metamask](https://metamask.io/) from its official website. Please be aware of the phishing ads you might see on the search engines. Also make sure you are downloading the official Metamask by checking the amount of downloads the app/extension has.

After creating you wallet, click on the **Ethereum Mainnet** button if you are on the browser\

If you are using Metamask on a mobile device, then you can click the Menu icon from top left, then go to **Settings -> Networks -> Add Network**

Then you can enter the following information to the window shown;

* **Network Name:** <mark style="color:blue;">**Omchain**</mark>
* **New RPC URL:&#x20;**<mark style="color:blue;">**<https://seed.omchain.io>**</mark>
* **Chain ID:** <mark style="color:blue;">**21816**</mark>
* **Symbol:&#x20;**<mark style="color:blue;">**OMC**</mark>
* **Block Explorer URL:** <mark style="color:blue;">**<https://explorer.omchain.io>**</mark>

**What's Next?**

If you are seeing your OMC balance at the end (don't worry if it's 0, you can purchase some OMC from the [supporting exchanges](/info/exchanges.md)) and you haven't encountered any errors, you are ready to use Omchain. Because Omchain uses OMC as its base currency, all you need is to get some OMC now.
