[TUTORIAL] LND node on Windows for Lightning Network - Beginner friendly

[Satofan44]

Am I allowed to bump someone else's thread?   If I am, bump. I asked NotATether to consider including both of our threads in his challenge.

As far as I read testnet LND might have trouble finding the node to sync but since I already run my own I should not have any problem right?

You are confusing two separate things. There are Bitcoin nodes and there are Lightning Nodes. If you are on any network (mainnet, testnet), you need both Bitcoin and Lightning nodes to sync from. If your Bitcoin node is running and fully synced, you still need other people's Lightning nodes to sync your own Lightning node to the network. Is that clear?

Yes you're allowed to bump, not going through this thread long time. Thanks for bringing this topic on sight again. Lately watching lot's of user's showing their interest to learn how to run a proper node.

I am running Bitcoin Core on mainnet as well as on testnet 4 and I believe I can try running my LN node on testnet too so if you have any experience on trying the Lightning node on testnet4 then just let me know if there is any difference with these steps?

Are you trying to say that you would like to experience the lnd node on testnet phase? Maybe you're reffering to this - have an sneak peak on this - How to use regtest - the definitive guide
