I have a laptop and a desktop-based-server on a 192.168.1.x segment on my network. I want to setup Tailscale between them.

Will it be bad if Tailscale connects while my laptop is local, on 192.168.1.x network?

Can I make it automatically connect via Tailscale when away and via the local network when home?

How can I best test the Tailscale network while I am at home?

    Yes, it has a start up service in windows and linux. I can tell you the android app doesn’t start automatically, you need to access it each time you restart your device. I don’t know for iOS.

      Same for iOS with the added pain that iOS will kill the background process if you don’t open it back up from time to time.

      Edit: spelling

      Cool - I probably won’t be using it on my Android phone. I keep it regularly copied to my workstation.
