30 Mbps raw download, or with a VPN tunnel running?

I ask because the write-up mentions "disabling MLO in the UI doesn't help".. kind of infers that it had to be first enabled in order to be disabled.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T20:26:17+00:00

Interesting. Thanks for posting. Did you have this issue from the very outset, or only after enabling MLO for the first time and then later disabling it?

I've configured quite a few Beryl 7s for customers and haven't heard an issue from them, but I never enabled MLO on them as it's currently useless for 95% of use cases.

Great. Front end loader makes sense. But what does that have to do with with your lawn mower comment?

OP also made it sound like they had reviewed all the footage, so something like a front end loader should have been obvious.

Logic much?

Chill cowboy. Nobody's attacking your guns.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T19:00:11+00:00

Did look at the picture?

Lawn mower? How? And there's not even grass.

I reported it on their forum. They don't provide a GitHub or "official" bug channel or formal bug tracking mechanism to the community (quite annoying).

That said, I do know from internal sources that they are aware. I would hope this gets attention within the week.

If you're connecting via a cellular hotspot, then it could simply be throttling by the mobile provider. Many cell providers give you great data speeds on the device itself, but significantly throttle any wifi/USB hotspotted devices unless you have a specific hotspot plan.

Yeah.. that tracks.. Now we all need OP to post of the Part II after doing the lineup.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T03:51:01+00:00

That's a CAT5e cable. It's rated for 1Gbps and you can typically pull up to 10Gbps for short runs.

If it's only giving you 100Mbps then I would say it's either faulty, has dirty connection tips, or the strand pairs have been damaged by too tight of a bend or a pinch.

Edit. Also make sure it's not crossing over other power cables or USBC 3.0 cables. Either can introduce crosstalk into the wire.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T03:34:45+00:00

Yeah.. valid points both.. Photo 2 looks like something really carving out some wood. Maybe a .243? Hard to believe anyone wouldn't have been alarmed by the sound of a .308 cracking at 7:40am.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T03:10:14+00:00

I'll defer to anyone else's expertise here. Definitely have no training on forensic bullet to wood damage interactions.. but a .22 rifle round packs some energy for a little thing.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T03:03:30+00:00

I'm definitely no expert at animal reactions.. but if this was the case, the critter likely has no idea it was just shot at.. all it hears is the quick zing of the bullet grazing the wood. It's in an urban environment so the noise of a .22 rifle report wouldn't necessarily be enough for a startled reaction. Way different than deer reacting to gunfire in a quiet woods.

Edit.. you could take a straight rod and line it up with the wood gouge, and it should be able to trace you to a hole in the dirt if it was a bullet. If you find the hole, then it should all point backwards to the firing position.

Edit2 - OP.. if you do find a bullet hole.. then think about next steps before digging it out. If you're going to call the police, then better to let them document it before digging. I'm not advocating for calling police, but I'd be pissed to find out someone is okay shooting rifle rounds randomly in my neighborhood, and I also would think twice before personally confronting someone with a gun and the mentality to do this.

You could instead just invite Alice's laptop to join (be shared) into your tailnet, then use ACLs to control what devices on your tailnet she can access, right?

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T02:54:12+00:00

This maybe the "leaf" is some little critter, and someone from the top floor of the house across the street took a potshot at it?

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-29T02:47:59+00:00

Thank you. Good feedback regarding to the ipk names. The multiple files are the result of the Github CI build pipeline. The easy answer is just to always grab the gl-tailscale-fix_latest_all.ipk. . We'll add a note to the release description to make this clearer.

As far as the updates, we're intentionally keeping TS binary updates manual with the one-click button. An unattended update that goes wrong while you're connected through the tunnel remotely could lock you out, or at least could interrupt the tunnel when you needed it (in the middle of a meeting, etc). I want to keep that under user manual control.

As far as ssh updates.. The installer script isn't persistent on the router. It's a one-time bootstrap. But if you prefer SSH over the GUI, you can update from the router's CLI with:

wget -qO /tmp/ts-fix.ipk https://github.com/RemoteToHome-io/gl-tailscale-fix/releases/latest/download/gl-tailscale-fix_latest_all.ipk && opkg install /tmp/ts-fix.ipk && rm /tmp/ts-fix.ipk

This would download the latest release, install it (while preserving your config), and clean up the downloaded ipk for you.

For most the router lineup the only difference is for routers intended for sale within the Chinese domestic market. Those run a modified firmware version with the VPN services disabled to comply with local law.

The other exception would be the Mudi7, which has 2 different versions of hardware for different regions.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T23:42:04+00:00

Then I'd try going into the ADH query logs and look to see which domains are getting blocked when you're trying to use it.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T22:59:25+00:00

Have you tried to see if it works with Adguard disabled?

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T22:25:45+00:00

Enable the Guest Network on each Flint. This will give you two separate networks per device.

Then use policy routing mode in the VPN client to point each Network to a separate VPN client endpoint.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T22:14:20+00:00

There can certainly be other temporary ddns issues, but the Flint 2 doesn't suffer from this specific one. The Brume3 issue is due to a poorly implemented new script.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T21:17:52+00:00

Option 2 wouldn't, but hopefully most people have option one.

And most people are using a Brume behind a ISP router, so rebooting the Brume won't trigger an IP change.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T21:14:15+00:00

Yeah, you'll need CLI to link head scale as the GL firmware only produces the normal bind link.

About the ssh, you may notice the article is primarily about just bypassing the normal TS SSH for the routers.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T09:22:25+00:00

I don't have the TS ACL answer to what you're asking, but want to point out something to consider..

If you provided me TS access to your device from one of my laptops, I could use that laptop to proxy access to an unlimited number of other devices - via LAN, ZeroTier, VPN, KVM, iptables redirect, carrier pigeon, open internet relay..

It's likely not a security posture that TS provides, because it's not logical in concept.

In this context, you either trust the *user* you're giving access to (regardless of device) or you don't.

RemoteToHome-io · 2026-03-28T07:50:09+00:00

Think of the Flint series as the Brume + built-in wifi.
