Thanks

Looks like you may be running an older version of pfSense and/or Tailscale.

You might want to upgrade to latest version (1.78.1) on all clients, which may resolve some of the connection issues.

Although, Netgate has not updated the Tailscale package in some time, you can manually update

How to update to the latest Tailscale version?

You may also want to upgrade Windows 8.1, which MS officially stopped supporting on January 10, 2023

Service Status
Shows running or not

Otherwise no widget avail might blew up the dashboard caused by the amount of possible nodes / clients on a tails scale net (filtering or show only specific clients might do the trick)

Might be a cool project for someone

I am having trouble getting this to work.

Will this work behind a double NAT? I have pfSense behind another Mikrotik 4G router. I have confirmed too that I can ping the remote host subnet via pfSense directly just not behind the pfSense LAN, So I'm guessing the double NAT is not an issue.

Also, for the NAT rule,

Would the source be the Source Network of the pfSense LAN, and the destination be the final Destination Network of the other network behind tailscale?

Then the NAT Address would be the tailscale IP of the other side network.

IE>>

pfSense network = 192.168.10.0/24
Remote Network = 192.168.20.0/24
pfSense Tailscale = 100.90.20.10
Remote Tailscale = 100.90.42.2

Would my NAT entry look like this.

@harshness FYI, a tailscale update fixed this for both Pfsense and the Apple TV. All has been working fine for quite some time now.

@mowest Do you have pfSense configured to "accept subnet routes"?

@chickendog I've been looking at this for a while and I believe that is indeed the case. Thanks for confirming.

@mcury said in "Tailscale is not online" problem:

@chudak did you create the key at the tailscale's console and then imported it to pfsense ?
also, set the key to do not expire.

I did set my key to not expire.
I have used the original key with pfS and did not regenerate it
And have seen it’s working normally after this error.
So suspecting it’s unrelated

I’m hesitant to mess up with keys now as it used to work literally two days ago.

Ok, if the problem happens again, try to create a key, import it, and then set it to "don't expire".

I too have had this issue today.
The ssh session hung at "Stopping Tailscale"
I found a "reboot" from shell worked.

Has anyone found a fix to stop this?

@mfld my guess would be you have magicdns enabled

https://tailscale.com/kb/1081/magicdns

I think they changed that to be default enabled a while back, use to be off by default. So depending on when you created your tailscale account?

I do not have enabled.. Makes no sense when you run your own dns.

@ericreiss

That's why have I have IPSec as a fail safe backup.
