Just a follow up, as I am chuffed to bits with this Talscale implementation on my RT-AX86U, kudos to
@RandomUser777 for finding out what needed to be done, it really is quite simple to install.
I am a wee bit surprised that there is not more interest in this implementation, I appreciate there are tonnes of devices (AppleTV, RPi, Thin Clients repurposed with DietPi etc) all able to operate as Subnet Routers, but it is really great that it's all in one box.
I don't do much but access my Router WebGUI "locally" and occasionally use Remote Desktop "locally" behind a CGNAT, so I guess one of the the unknowns is how the Router CPU can handle "heavy duty" throughput via Tailscale, but at the end of the day, it's really just Wireguard (as I understand it), which the Router already does.
Even if it was a fall-back subnet router it would be useful; as I understand it, if you have multiple subnet routers they operate in the order of date joined, if one is offline.
I wonder if
@thelonelycoder or some other equally well-respected member of this community would consider adding it to amtm (which I have only recently discovered and think is pretty awesome) as a "Tailscale Installation" script, following Random777's setup? I firmly believe it would be a welcome addition. It might need caveats for horsepower e.g. only on RT-AXZZU etc. but even so, it would be great IMHO.
Thoughts?
