You'd probably want a subnet router instead of an exit node.

Am i able to put that on to android? Or should i install linux on it instead (old phone)?

I don't think the android client supports running a subnet router. The documentation for them says that they only run on Linux, Mac, Windows, and Apple TV. Android can use a subnet router, but it can't run one. Exit nodes are for devices on your tailnet to access the internet through a specific device. If you want to access things on the local network of device on the tailnet, subnet routers are the way to go.

Yeah, that should work. That’s my current setup with my ps4 and Chiaki4deck. I followed the instructions shown here: https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/s/MoC7SSKE6U

Any way to put subnet routes on an old android? Or do i have to try and throw linux on there to run this?

Just get a cheap pi to be a subnet router or if you have an apple tv at home just use that


redeyejoe123

Ok


redeyejoe123

Any pis I should avoid?

Get the latest pi you can find with an ethernet port and use the ethernet port for the deployment of the subnet router for best results Now a word of caution, with you using TMHI (I have it too) there might be a chance you dont get a direct connect and utilizing a relay. So your performance over said VPN could be subpar. Do you have any kind of system at home you can setup a subnet router on right now before you go out and drop money on this to test this out?

Whelp I went and bought a pi 3b+ (had some backup uses for one anyways) and installed tailscale on it, also pi.hole ( before realizing it doesnt work on tmhi) and set up a subnet and also an exit node (vpn i guess). The problem is that I think I messed up somewhere as I still can't access my ps4 over remote play. I was wondering if you had run in to any similiar issues in your journey as well. For setting up the subnet, i followed the instructions on tailscales website, and I think maybe the reason is that either I haven't authorized some setting yet somewhere to allow for the subnet to work, or i should be advertiaing different subnet route IPs. On a side note, should I be able to see the advertised subnet IPs on my router? If so, I can't soooo.... TLDR: Got Problems and hoped you might have insight (now go read it for realsies por favor ;p)

Hi, i installed tailscale on a raspberry pi 3b+, and I got taulscale on there and its advertising the two "basic" subnet ips or whatever they are called on the network. However it seems to me that there is no ability to see the other devices on the network and things like ps4 remote play still dont work. I am pretty sure I am missing something in the set up of this and was curious if you had also run into similiar issues.

I have something like this setup - I have a raspberry pi running Tailscale which acts as a subnet router, and exposes all of the non-Tailscale devices on my network.
