Now that we have funded our c-lightning wallet we will get information about remote node to start creating channel process. Using `lightning-cli --network testnet listchannels` command you can list all active channels and select one remote node and it's public key:

#### Connect to remote node
The first thing you need to do is connect your node to a peer. This is done with the `lightning-cli connect` command. Remember that if you want more information on this command, you should type `lightning-cli help connect`. The connect RPC command establishes a new connection with another node in the Lightning Network.
To connect your node to a remote peer you need it's id that represents the target node’s public key. As a convenience, id may be of the form id@host or id@host:port. In this case, the port parameter must be changed due we're running two nodes on the same machine, c-lightning node it's running on 9735 default port and we've started LND node on 9736 port with this parameter.
To connect your node to a remote peer you need it's id that represents the target node’s public key. As a convenience, id may be of the form id@host or id@host:port. Using `lightning-cli help listnodes` command you obtain all nodes available on the network and choose one.
```
lnd$ lnd --listen=0.0.0.0:9736
c$ lightning-cli help listnodes
```
We can check it's listening on 9736 port using this command:
Output
```

```
c$ netstat -aon | grep 9736
tcp6 0 0 :::9736 :::* LISTEN off (0.00/0/0)
c$
```
Now we can use `lightning-cli connect` command to reach node as a peer:
We've selected node with public key 0302d48972ba7eef8b40696102ad114090fd4c146e381f18c7932a2a1d73566f84 and we'll connect as a peer with `lightning-cli connect` command:
```
c$ lightning-cli --network=testnet connect 0302d48972ba7eef8b40696102ad114090fd4c146e381f18c7932a2a1d73566f84@127.0.0.1:9736
