Tailscale 'Exit Node' on GL.iNet Routers?

An alternative way of enabling the exit node mode without editing the start script or running frequent cron commands.

  1. Go to Lucy then System->Startup->Local startup
  2. Enter above the exit 0 line:
( sleep 60; tailscale set --advertise-exit-node ) &

This will allow the router to start all processes, including Tailscale connection and, after 60s, will set the flag --advertise-exit-node.

This solution persists after the router updates.
