# Get the chain information for a Signer

## Check the network information using ethers.js

```javascript
const { ethers } = require('ethers');

async function getNetworkInfo() {
  // Create a provider
  const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider(`https://moonbeam.unitedbloc.com`);

  // Get network information
  const network = await provider.getNetwork();

  console.log('Network Name:', network.name);
  console.log('Chain ID:', network.chainId);
  console.log('Block Explorer URL:', network.blockExplorer);
}

getNetworkInfo();

```

In this example, we use a Moonbeam `provider`.  If you use a browser-injected provider, you'll receive the information about the current connected network.
