How would Tailscale run in your home network without a hardware device to connect to?
- elteto 10mo agoNot to take away from this device, I think it’s pretty neat. But you can run tailscale on anything, even Apple TVs. If you have a Unifi network odds are that you have at least one spare computing device that can run tailscale.
- atonse 10mo agoProblem is that I think my Apple TV goes into some sort of deep idle mode where tailscale stops working. So it’s been effectively useless for me when I travel.
- dewey 10mo agoNever had that, and I use that feature often.
- devilbunny 10mo agoCheck the Tailscale blog and docs for AppleTV. ISTR reading about an issue like this popping up and they had a workaround of some sort. Never happened to me.
- AJRF 10mo agoYou can create a subnet router on tailscale and access any device on your local network, regardless of them having tailscale installed
- ohyoutravel 10mo agoSure but you need a device on the local network to run Tailscale so it routes to that subnet no?
