Tailscale & HRHomeRun App

Post by JMN57 »

I'm having problems with the HDHomeRun app connecting to my Prime when Tailscale is running on the PC (Surface Pro 9) that I am trying to watch on. The moment I turn off Tailscale, it finds the tuner but with Tailscale on it says it can't find the a tuner.

Is anyone else seeing this behavior? Is anyone getting it to work with Tailscale running?

Added - this is not a remote issue. This is when I am on the same LAN as the Prime.

The interwebs suggest the following:

Right-click on the Tailscale icon in the taskbar and go to the Exit node menu there is a “Allow local LAN access” option. Turning that on should help.

Well I'm back. Seemed to have solved it at first but I am still experiencing problems with the HD Home Run App not finding the tuner. Once I do a ping against the ipaddress that seems to help but it seems to be having a hard time finding the server.

You're going to have to reach out to Tailscale for any further assistance in configuring their software.
