How to switch networks#
Use your wallet's network selector or a verified request from the official CenturionDEX interface to switch networks. Always confirm the chain ID before approving because a network name and logo can be copied.
Centurion chain IDs#
- Centurion mainnet:
286, native CTN. - Fornax testnet:
287, native tCTN. - Centaurus testnet:
288, native tCTN.
Do not invent or guess an RPC or explorer URL. Obtain the current configuration through official Centurion sources.
Step-by-step from CenturionDEX#
- Open the official CenturionDEX interface from a verified Centurion source.
- Connect the intended wallet account.
- Select the network control in the interface.
- Choose Centurion mainnet, Fornax, or Centaurus.
- Read the wallet request, including the chain ID and network name.
- Approve only when the details match official configuration.
- Confirm that the wallet and CenturionDEX now show the same network.
- Verify balances and token contracts before starting a transaction.
Step-by-step in a wallet#
- Open the wallet's network menu.
- Select an existing verified Centurion entry, or choose Add network if none exists.
- Enter only the current official network name, chain ID, currency symbol, RPC, and explorer details.
- Save the network and select it.
- Reopen CenturionDEX and confirm the connection.
Wallet labels vary, so rely on the chain ID and verified endpoint rather than button wording alone.
Why balances change when you switch#
Each blockchain has separate state. Your address may look identical across EVM-compatible networks, but its CTN, tokens, approvals, and transaction history on Centurion are independent of assets elsewhere.
Mainnet CTN is also separate from tCTN on Fornax or Centaurus. Switching a menu does not bridge, copy, or convert assets.
Common issues#
- The wallet returns to another network: a connected site may be requesting a different chain, or the wallet may not have saved the configuration.
- Chain ID already exists: inspect the existing entry and remove it if its endpoints are unverified.
- CenturionDEX still shows wrong network: refresh the interface after switching and reconnect the account.
- RPC error: verify current official status and configuration rather than trying random public endpoints.
- No CTN for fees: fund the selected network with its native asset.
Stay safe#
A network-add request can direct your wallet to malicious infrastructure. Verify every field through official Centurion channels. No legitimate setup requires your recovery phrase, private key, or password.
