3. In the `Whitelisted domains` form field, enter the domain of your remote Specter server you are connecting to and click update.
4. Now open the remote Specter server you wish to use and go to settings.
5. In the bottom, find `HWI Bridge URL`, and enter there the URL of your local Specter HWIBridge along with `/hwi/api/` (i.e. `http://127.0.0.1:25441/hwi/api/`), then click save.
4. Now open a browser tab to the remote Specter server you wish to use and go to its settings.
5. On the "USB Devices" tab select "Remote Specter USB connection", then click "Save Changes".
6. Scroll further down and click "Test connection". You should see the "Detecting..." popup spinner.
Now you should now be able to use hardware wallets connected via USB to your local node with the Specter running on the remote server.
_note: Brave browser shields and other ad blockers may prevent device bridge communication. If you don't see the "Detecting..." popup, try disabling your ad blocker._
Now you should now be able to use hardware wallets connected via USB to your local machine with Specter running on a remote server.
We are currently working to make this process much easier and simpler.
