### Switching to Base Network

If you're not already on **Base Mainnet**, your wallet may prompt you to switch. If not, you can add it manually:

**Network Name: Base Mainnet**&#x20;

**New RPC URL:** [**https://mainnet.base.org**](https://mainnet.base.org)&#x20;

**Chain ID: 8453**&#x20;

**Currency Symbol: ETH**&#x20;

**Block Explorer URL:** [**https://basescan.org**](https://basescan.org)

Most modern wallets will automatically detect and switch networks when prompted by PredictBase.

### Troubleshooting Tips

* **No wallet detected?**
  * Make sure your wallet extension is installed.
  * Try using WalletConnect if on mobile.
* **Still connected to the wrong network?**
  * Open your wallet settings and manually switch to Base Mainnet.
* **Connection errors?**
  * Refresh the page, clear browser cache, or try a different browser.
