I recently picked up the Flint 3 router, running OpenWrt, to replace my aging home networking gear.

The version of Tailscale supported by GL Inet/Openwrt isn’t very current. Thanks to Admonistrator Tailscale Update Script for GL.iNet Routers exists

BEFORE YOU RUN THE SCRIPT DO THE FOLLOWING

Go to Applications –> Click to Enable Tailscale Bind your account, it will process for a few minutes and should give you a link. Click on the link THEN run the script above.

Tailscale config menu

Now you can use a more up to date version of Tailscale, keep the scripts around because you’ll want to run them peridocially to keep up to date.
