Installation

Add this repository feed by following the instructions below or manually download and install the correct ipk file from the above link.

NOTE: It is normal for the installation to give an error about a failed log upload after finishing when the service starts.

NOTE: This repository does not use package signing. The Packages.sig download failure shown during opkg update is expected and harmless. The option check_signature 0 flag in the feed line below suppresses this warning.

Prerequisites: HTTPS connections to GitHub require SSL support. Install these packages first if not already present:

opkg install ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl

Web UI

Navigate to System -> Software

Add the following feed to /etc/opkg/customfeeds.conf

src/gz openwrt-tailscale https://lanrat.github.io/openwrt-tailscale-repo/packages/19.07 option check_signature 0

Update the feeds

Search for tailscale, and install it.

CLI

opkg install ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl
echo "src/gz openwrt-tailscale https://lanrat.github.io/openwrt-tailscale-repo/packages/19.07 option check_signature 0" >> "/etc/opkg/customfeeds.conf"
opkg update
opkg install tailscale

Configuration

After installation tailscaled should already be running and waiting for you to login and configure it.

For example:

tailscale up --accept-dns=false --advertise-routes=10.0.0.0/24 --advertise-exit-node

What about OpenWrt 21.02+?

Tailscale is already in the default feeds for newer versions of OpenWrt.
