 Hey honestly, that doesn’t help, because the QR code provided thru LND via Umbrel isn’t scannable by Zeus. That’s the breakdown.

I may not be communicating this intuitively, but my point is that users all over the interwebs also, and clearly, share this frustration: that they can’t scan Zeus via the QR code provided by Umbrel. I’ve run into this complaint so many times in trying to dyor.

Take that as you will…Umbrel is not great, yes. But it’s huge, and works.

So. My point is. I don’t know where the breakdown occurred, but I really love you all as the manly love-beasts you are…but…not until this gets fixed. 
 Have you filed an issue w Umbrel? 
 No, because I’m assuming the QR code is normally readable, just not by Zeus app. 
 Umbrel might bloat it with the cert data, which isn’t used - making it harder to scan 
 You could also try Lightning Node Connect in the Lightning Terminal app on Umbrel 
 Lightning Node Connect through the Umbrel Lightning Terminal app is far superior to the REST Tor connection (both faster and more reliable). 

Happy to help and walk you through if needed
