Android Question ZeroTier or TailScale

[lip]

Is there a way to use either of these to connect to remote devices with B4ABridge?

ZeroTier works really well on Raspberry Pi's with B4JBridge, but I can't find a way to make B4ABridge work.

The problem seems to be that B4ABridge is bound to the wifi IP address and will not recognise the ZeroTier IP address.

B4ABRIDGE is open source, you can try to modify it to your needs

Some months ago, I used Tailscale to remotely connect to a PC with B4A installed (my PC was at home) using my phone. Both my home PC and my phone were on the same Tailscale network.
It worked perfectly.
Tips:

• The phone must be connected to Wi-Fi
• Tailscale must be active
• B4ABridge on your phone will show the IP address from the Wi-Fi network, not the Tailscale IP assigned to your phone, but it will work anyway
• The Connect menu in B4A will NOT show the Tailscale IP assigned to your phone; you will have to manually type the IP address assigned by Tailscale to your phone using the 'New IP' menu item

I have successfully connected B4ABridge with my home computer when I was using TailScale in the past. B4ABridge reports that it is not connected but it is and it works. Either way B4ABridge is a port listening and it does not matter at all how you will get there. What it matters is to connect to this port.
