# How to configure MetaMask

## How to add RPC

***

* If you want to deposit you may have to change your wallet RPC, as most providers have censored the smart contracts. **The default provider of Metamask, Infura along with Ankr and Alchemy currently do not prohibit transactions to and from the protocol, governance and the TORN token**.
* Try searching for an alternative working endpoint on [Chainlist](https://chainlist.org/) or via [TornadoRPC](https://rpc.tornadoeth.cash), which could take multiple attempts (take note of the ChainID for network configuration). An example of how to change your RPC provider for MetaMask is shown below.

* Sometimes visiting the application you could be greeted with the following message, to fix this click "OPEN SETTINGS".

* You'll then be displayed a dropdown selection, defaulted to a selection. Click on it and select the "Custom" option.

* Here enter a non-censoring RPC provider depending on your network and this will resolve application issues.

* Then you are freely able to withdraw, deposit, stake or participate in decentralized governance like nothing ever happened.

### FAQ <a href="#faq" id="faq"></a>

> Why do I keep recieving the error `Failed to fetch relayers`?

* This error is either related to a poor connection or a result of no available relayers on your network. It usually can be solved by refreshing.

> Why do I keep recieving the error `Failed to fetch proving keys`?

* This error is either related to a poor connection, it usually can be solved by refreshing or changing VPN location for better latency.

> Why do I keep recieving the error `Failed to fetch all deposit events from contract` when trying to withdraw?

* This error is related to a poor connection or using a censored RPC endpoint. To resolve this either:
  * change VPN location for better latency
  * try a new browser or method of access
  * configure the application RPC configuration to an alternative

> Why can't I make a deposit from my wallet?

* Most RPCs censor transactions to the protocol and governance since the OFAC sanctions, you need to configure your wallet RPC to a uncensored endpoint.
