+# Tailscale on OpenWRT
+
+1. Extract the contents of root to your filesystem root using:
+```
+tar x -zvf tailscale_enabler.tgz -C /
+```
+
+2. Install the prerequisites for wget and tailscale using:
+```
+opkg update
+opkg install libustream-openssl ca-bundle kmod-tun
+```
+
+3. Run tailscale for the first time:
+```
+tailscale_enabler
+/etc/init.d/tailscale start
+tailscale up --accept-dns=false --advertise-routes=10.0.0.0/24
+```
+
+The tailscale_enabler will download the tailscale binaries to /tmp and tailscale will start the tailscale daemon. 
+The last command uses the tailscale CLI to configure the login and add some settings to prevent dns changes and advertise routes. Use the URL printed to login to tailscale.
+
+4. Enable tailscale at boot:
+```
+/etc/init.d/tailscale_enabler enable
+/etc/init.d/tailscale enable
+```
+
+Verify by looking for two entries here:
+```
+ls /etc/rc.d/S*tailscale*
+```
+
+5. Reboot the router and verify that it shows up online on the [Tailscale Admin portal](https://login.tailscale.com/admin/machines).
+
+6. To update the version of tailscale, grab the latest version [here](https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/#static) of the form `1.2.10_mips` and replace the same in /usr/bin/tailscale_enabler: `version="1.2.10_mips"`.
