Hello, my name is Chris and today I'm going to show you how to install Tailscale on Kasa OS. This makes it to where you can access your Kasa OS from anywhere in the world. So once we're done, you'll be able to just start up your client on your iOS, Android, or Mac, or Windows, and then be able to connect to your Kasa OS.
So a little bit about this series, I'm going over Homelabs and we're installing things, getting things set up, everything like that. So if you're interested in that, subscribe, comment, like, and support the channel and Let's get started. So this is a tailscale and I have the home page up So it's a secure remote access to shared resources so you just install the client on any your devices and And just start up the VPN and you'll be able to connect to your tailscale network with WireGuard.
So It's good for home labs, zero config business, a VPN, remote access, site-to-site networking. It works on iOS, Linux, macOS, Raspberry Pi, Synology, Windows, Android, different things, secure networks for teams, enterprises, individuals. And we're going to get to getting this installed.
So when you're on the website. you go up to admin console right here and then you'll just log in with google microsoft github apple or passkey so once you sign in you'll be on the avenue and admin console so you'll be able to create your network so i am now signed into my admin console and we can go over here to download tail scale and then i'm going to go over to linux right here and then install with one command i'm going to copy that and then i'm going to go over to my cost os and get this installed so now i'm in my cost os and i'm going to go up to terminal logs and then i'm going to sign into the terminal access right here so cost os cost os and that's just the default password for Xenoboard and the default username and 22 port right here once you're signed in you will be presented with this and Now you can go in here and you can paste that command in that we just copied last I'm going to run it and then it's gonna ask for your username your password. I mean and that'll be your cost os password for the ssh so if you're running this on proxmox it's a little bit different i have a tutorial for that and if you're uh if you're running this on the zine board just follow this one might take a little bit to get installed okay now we are up the installation is complete so now we are going to have to log into the tail scale so i'm going to do pseudo tail scale up Then there you go.
You have a URL now that you just go to and you log into your account and this machine should show Up on your admin console. So I'm going to copy this link then I'm going to go over to my browser and get logged in so now once you Copy that URL. You're gonna go to your browser you're gonna go to it and then you'll just log in with your tail scale account and then you'll be presented with connecting it so now once you get to this screen you get logged in you're going to see connect device and i'm going to press the connect button right here login successful so now your machine should be on the telnet so now once you go back to your cross os and you can see the terminal like you had before um right underneath the login url that you used it'll say success and once you get that that lets you know that the telescale network is now connected to your cosos so once you go back to your telescale admin console you'll see a machine right here it'll say cosos or whatever machine host name is uh You'll look for connected right here once you see connected, you know, it's successfully working So now we need to connect our main machine or one that we're using to connect to this other machine so we're gonna have to go to that back to the download again and then you're not to pick your operating system of what your Yeah, your current machine is that you're wanting to connect to the cost OS from so mine's Mac OS So I'm going to download it and get it installed so now once you get your your machine installed mac os ios windows linux or android you're going to go to the um the client and then you're going to go up to it and you're going to say log in and then you're going to log in your account and then you will see in the machine section in the admin console your current machine will will be in there and it'll be connected to your telnet so now once you see in the telescale admin console you'll see a machine. Once you go to the login, you log in your account.
And then once you log in, you'll be presented with the connection page. You'll say connect device. Then it'll say login successful. And then after a few, you will go back to the admin console and you'll see it in your machines here. So now I'm going to go up to the Kelscale client again, and you'll see it's connected.
So I'm going to, uh, to go and change to my network and then because i have multiple networks and i'm going to change to a network that doesn't have access to the cost os at all and test and see if it's actually working so now i'm back at my casa os and if i try to refresh this it will not work because i'm on a different network and it doesn't have access to this casa os so now i'm going to go up to my telescope client And then I'm going to network devices, my devices, and then cost OS. You can't use TailNet and go to this actual IP. It has to be on the TailScale IP. So I'm going to go to the TailScale IP now.
And you can see it's working. So I'm going to log in real quick. Okay, now I'm logged in. Okay, so the telnet is working.
You can see it's working. So I'm on a different IP address. And so whenever you want to go to a device, you just go in network devices, you go to my devices, and then you copy the IP address right here. And then you go to it. So that's how tailscale works and that's how to get cost os working on tailscale so i just walked you through step by step on how to get tailscale working on cost os this makes to where you can access your cost os anywhere in the world so if you like this tutorial subscribe comment like and support the channel and if you have any video suggestions or you need support you can go down to the big bear community and join our discord there's a link down in the description so stay tuned for more
