Not to take away from this device, I think it’s pretty neat. But you can run tailscale on anything, even Apple TVs. If you have a Unifi network odds are that you have at least one spare computing device that can run tailscale.

Problem is that I think my Apple TV goes into some sort of deep idle mode where tailscale stops working. So it’s been effectively useless for me when I travel.

  • Check the Tailscale blog and docs for AppleTV. ISTR reading about an issue like this popping up and they had a workaround of some sort. Never happened to me.
