Netbird Work around

Because I cannot installed Netbird on my GL-AXT1800 (well not without a hack) I was wondering if the below was possible.

I have the GL-AXT1800 in my network with a workstation and a Pi running a Netbird node (node 2).

On another network I have a Netbird node (node 2) that is also an exit node. All my Netbird nodes run on Raspberry Pi's.

I am wanting to achieve the following. When a client connects to the travel router, I want its traffic to be appear to come from the network that Node 1 is in.

I know that I can make Netbird Node 2 use the exit node on Node 1 but I am not sure how to set things up so that all traffic going via the Travel Router goes via this node (node 2) and therefore appears to be comming from Node 1.

Hello,

Can a Raspberry Pi serve as a gateway to a current network (similar to drop-in gateway)?

If it can be, you can change the workstation gateway IP point to the Raspberry Pi IP, so that the routing will be from Workstation > Raspberry Pi > Router > .. > Internet

You can use these instructions on the workstation to check the Internet exit IP:

Windows CMD: tracert www.google.com and curl ipinfo.io
Linux: traceroute www.google.com and curl ipinfo.io

Thanks for this.

So I need to change the gateaway on the workstation, I can get the GL.iNet to do it all for me i.e. make any workstation route via the Pi (provide the Pi can serve as a gateway)?

Since the plugin is installed on Pi, I assume the key setting should be on Pi.

The Pi must have a route or gateway, which can accept all data sent from LANs. After processing by that plugin, and sent to the primary router.
