Does GL-A1300 (Slate Plus) run as an exit node for Tailscale

Right so I was able to set up tailscale with persistent connection as an exit nde. Here’s the steps.

  1. Enable tailscale in Applications and authenticate your machine.

  1. Ensure the router is the exit node and also disable the expiry of the authentication key.
    <Can’t insert more than 1 image>

  2. Edit the file /usr/bin/gl_tailscale.sh and add the highlighted parameter to the line 159 after the --reset parameter. The line should look like:
    /usr/sbin/tailscale up --reset --advertise-exit-node --accept-routes $param --timeout 3s > /dev/null

<Can’t insert more than 1 image>

  1. Restart the router and test if it works once it’s back up and running.

Thanks you @tragicshadow for the solution from here.
