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, Tailscale starts up with Windows and doesn’t require any interaction.

    One caveat, DLNA/casting/KDE Connect don’t work when Tailscale is active. Seems to be a limitation with multicasting not playing well with VPN-s in general.
