Hi

I assume you already know how to configure GL.iNet as an exit node.  
If you need assistance on this side, please refer to the following thread for configuration.

The more I look at this the more it seems all so familar: This is untested code to enable exit nodes I never got feedback on from someone else but here: sed '/param="$param --exit-node-allow-lan-access --exit-node=$exit\_node\_ip"/a\ param=“$param --advertise-exit-node --allow-exit-node --allow-routes”' /usr/bin/gl\_tailscale \>\> \ /usr/bin/gl\_tailscale.new && mv /usr/bin/gl\_tailscale /usr/bin/gl\_tailscale.stock \ && mv /u…

Here are the steps to further adjust the configuration to make with Tailscale exit node work with WireGuard VPN:

1. In Luci - Network - Firewall - Zones, configure `tailscale0` to allow forwarding to `wgclient1`.  

2. In Luci - Network - Routing - IPv4 rules, add the following two rules:  
2.1 Forward outbound traffic from the Tailscale network into the VPN tunnel.
