Pois ! Ja estA a funcionar, fui @Worten. 
Is it possible to connect my Electrum wallet to Umbrel Electrs over local network or over Tailscale? How to?
Yes, it is possible to connect to electrum wallet via local network.
You will need your node’s local IP for the server field if umbrel.local doesn’t work e.g. :50001:t → 192.168.1.71:50001:t, then you can uncheck the proxy fields in the next tab.

Thank you. Seems I was missing the :t (thought that was only for Tor). This guide could be improved for sure.

this worked for me getting Electrum wallet to connect with Electrs by inserting Electrs tor address *******************************.onion:50001:t into Electrum wallet network instead of using blabla.onion:50001:t
Good LORD thank you so much.
Adding a few tiny details for people that are new like me. You have to copy the Onion address and then add :50001:t to the end so that it’s something like XYZ.onion:50001:t (there isn’t a .onion address which already has that at the end). Also, you enter that address on the “Overview” tab under “server”.
I have gone through all of these posts and replies, and still cannot connect my Electrum Desktop app to my Electrum Server running on Umbrel. 
Is there a more recent set of instructions? I saw discussion about Tor browser (not sure what that is – I’m a newbie), but some posts said you don’t need it.
Please clarify.
Is anyone else able to connect their Electrum wallet to Umbrel Electrum Server? If not, kind of defeats the purpose of buying an Umbrel – the main reason I purchased it was so I can get better privacy for my wallet.
Hello,
Indeed you need to run Tor Browser (you can download it and simply run it) in parallel of Electrum wallet.
Dm me if you need more help

OK, I got it working without Tor. I was using the address umbrel.local instead of my Umbrel’s local address (i.e. its IP address on my home network). Did not need to set anything on the proxy tab either.
So the address I entered into the Server field of the Overview tab on Electrum’s Network dialog was something like this: 192.168.1.123:50001:t. I would also recommend making this a local static IP address so it doesn’t change when you reboot your router.
Hope this helps.
Your instructions finally got me connected. Thank You!!
I have a Raspberry Pi 5 running
IP Address : 192.168.1.104
Bitcoin Node / Bitcoin Core 27.1.0
100% Synchronized
My Node can be seen in a browser at http://192.168.1.104:2100/
Electrs 0.10.2 running
100% Synchronized
My Electrs can be seen in a browser at http://192.168.1.104:2102/
That page indicates Local Network and Tor settings
Local network :
Address : umbrel.local
Port : 50001
SSL : Disabled
Tor :
Address : 3l<MY-BEAUTIFUL-TOR-ADRESS>3id.onion
Port : 50001
SSL : Disabled
I am on a Windows 11 machine in the same local network. Physically the same switch.
IP Address : 192.168.1.112
I have Electrum 4.5.8 installed on this PC.
Tried the Tor configuration :
Tool → Network
Overview :
Unchecked “Select server automatically”
Specified *******************.onion:50001:t
Proxy :
SOCKS5
127.0.0.1

Not working
I’ve tried the local network option :
Tool → Network
Overview :
Unchecked “Select server automatically”
Specified 192.168.1.104:50001:t
Proxy :
Unchecked “Use proxy”
Not working
I’ve tried umbrel.local, umbrel.local:50001, umbrel.local:50001:t, 192.168.1.104:50001:t, 192.168.1.104:50001
What am I missing ?
A bit frustrating.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Greetings all,
You’ll want to use the following syntax should you decide to connect to your umbrel on the same network, locally - and not via tor.
Here’s the thought process - look here and match this:
- We see the address of umbrel.local, but we can also use the ip address. Let’s say it’s 192.168.1.11
- We see the port. It shows 50001; that’s 3 zero’s and a one.
- And it’s nice that it says disabled for SSL, but what does that mean? It means use “:t”
Now, after you’ve installed Electrum wallet and done your setup according to the manual or ‘wizard’, you’re likely pulling your hair out because it doesn’t want to connect. We have the solution - and it’s the “t”.
Configure The Client Properly
Configure The Client Properly, Without SSL
Notice how we’ve added the ip address and a colon with the port we were given and another colon after this with the letter “t”.
Why Do We Need a T?
- If there’s a dropdown for the protocol, select Plaintext or TCP (it might be labeled as t in some versions of Electrum).
- If there’s no dropdown and it’s showing s (for SSL) next to the server, you’ll need to manually change it:
- In older versions of Electrum, you might need to edit the server string directly. For example, if it shows 192.168.1.111:50001:s, change the s to t so it reads 192.168.1.111:50001:t.
- In newer versions, there’s usually a dropdown or toggle to switch between SSL and Plaintext.
- After setting it to plaintext, click Close or OK to save the settings.
