### 2. Device to Account Linking
In order for your device to stream data to the network, you should first link your device into your account. This step will be done via the EarthquakeHub rShake client accessible via rs.local:3000. To link your device, just click the `Link` button and input the account credentials you registered in Step 1, and the location information of your device:
> - Elevation (in meters)
> - Longitute (in degree coordinates)
> - Latitude (in degree coordinate)
You may use Google Maps to search your location on the map. Get the latitude and longitude coordinates by right clicking your pinned location on the map.
### 3. Adding a Host
After having linked your device, you are now ready to send data to any available server on the network. This step will also be done via the EarthquakeHub rShake client. To do this, click `Add Server` and choose your target ringserver from the dropdown list displayed.
