    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    I think the OP, who has asked an excellent question, already has his Synology device set up as a subnet router, so AFAIK, that device could act as the means to access other devices (and to bypass CGNAT). This is what I did in my first foray into Tailscale (TS), setting up an RPi. It runs...

    AC68u Kernel Update

    TAILMON does run with Merlin FW (and actually only Merlin FW), as an Addon, It is installed using amtm.

    AC68u Kernel Update

    Others might be able to help you with a direct Wireguard install but I don't know whether a Kernel udpate is possible (pretty sure it is not). If you have Merlin with amtm running and would like to try TAILMON, it installs Tailscale which has Wireguard under the hood and works on the RT-AC68U...

    Guest Network on 386 builds doesn't play nice with Chromecast, and a potential workaround

    +1 for me too. I’m not sure if @john9527 ever got @JWoo manual AP Isolation solution working but I’m in the same boat, Guest Wi-Fi for which I do not want Intranet Access enabled but I would very much like AP Isolation disabled so Guests can use a Chromecast attached to the same Wi-Fi. I don’t...

    Guest network isolation issue

    There was a discussion in the thread below some time ago about possibly adding an AP Isolation option to Guest Networks so you could have Access Intranet off but AP isolation disabled. There was even a custom build made (see pic). I am in the same position as the OP in that thread wrt to a...

    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    Hi and welcome to the forums. Given your routers are a combination of ASUS and non-ASUS Routers I think your question might find more results in the Other LAN and WAN forum, maybe @Viktor Jaep or a moderator can move it there. As regards TAILMON, it needs to be on an ASUS Router supported by...

    MerlinAU MerlinAU v1.2.6 - The Ultimate Firmware Auto-Updater (**Thread closed due to age**)

    Understood, but in my case I was trying to update from a WinPC, using the WebAdmin GUI. with the beta FW downloaded locally on that PC. I just needed (or used) Tailscale to RDP in so I could do that. I d/l the FW files to the remote PC as I am concerned uploads from the local PC to the remote...

    MerlinAU MerlinAU v1.2.6 - The Ultimate Firmware Auto-Updater (**Thread closed due to age**)

    Hi @ExtremeFiretop awhile back we had a wee discussion about MerlinAU helping ensure remote updates were done "locally" off the Router's USB, circumventing potential VPN connection issues. I have a wee request for an advanced option, to allow the user to manually (e.g. using WinSCP remotely)...

    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    Hi and I hope you’re enjoying @Viktor Jaep’s work. Anything is possible and the final call is @Viktor Jaep’s, but we had a discussion about what made sense as standard options at the development and testing phase and you’re probably aware more than most just how many options and switches...

    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    If your router is not remote might be easiest to just uninstall TAILMON completely, consider doing an option 3 entware reinstall, then install TAILMON via the AMTM menu this time? Not that the curl approach doesn’t work, but the AMTM based install and updates has been tested a fair bit...

    Upgrade Firmware to Merlin rt ac5300

    Probably this one https://www.snbforums.com/forums/wireless-buying-advice.28/ for general recommendations but it’s not ASUS specific. If you know what class ASUS WiFi 6 or WiFi 7 maybe go into those sub forums under ASUS wireless. 👍🏼

    ZenWiFi XD5 Mesh Nodes (2 out of 4) are Flashing Green!

    Once you have checked the Nodes (maybe on someone else's Router) consider looking at the RT-AC86U. Certain models have had hardware issues (overheating). I am also aware of some instances (not specific to this model) of the Power supply to the router going awry, so if you have access to a spare...

    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    Hi Viktor Thank you! OK I used option 10 and said yes to uninstalling the Tailscale dependencies as the second part of that option. I then used your curl option for my reinstall; 1.0.19. It all works fine, as expected, for two reasons (a) you're sooooo goooood and (b) my previous entware...

    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    Hi Viktor, No need! I couldn't let it go, thinking about it overnight, so I decided to (in order): Completely uninstall TAILMON (which automatically removes the Tailscale entware dependencies); then Do an entware UNINSTALL. I used amtm's entware removal option 3 i.e. ep, 5, option 3. I then...

    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    Sure, thanks. If you want to send a test version that traps errors or makes a log I’d be happy to run it. [EDIT] In my trials I had installed the 64 Bit Version of Entware as recommended. I am not sure if this has any significance wrt the issues I am seeing? Select Entware version This...

    TAILMON TAILMON v1.0.20 -July 27, 2024- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (THREAD #1 CLOSED)

    Hi Viktor, There's been a couple of folks who did not quite get a seamless install but eventually got it started. I have occasion to be at my remote Router for a while, an RT-AX86U-Pro, which was previously serviced by a RPi3 Subnet Router, but this evening I tried to put Tailmon on the Router...

    In the Tailscale admin https://login.tailscale.com/admin did you check you have it set as a subnet router?

    @bennor 🤭 you have the patience of a saint… if I had a dollar for every time you rolled that response out … maybe just unleash @Tech9, he’s good for a few giggles.
