I LOVE YOU! I'm about to go on a trip this Christmas and wanted to play my PC games. I saw these Moonlight and Sunshine apps but couldn't connect outside my home network, and I don't have access to my router. This video saved me in an incredible way, thank you so much!

Hello, I originally planned to use Moonlight+Sunshine+Nordvpn Meshnet to connect from my Company PC to my Gaming PC, but unfortunately my Company PC couldn't connect to my Meshnet network when I'm connected to the company network, possibly because of port blocking. So I heard that Tailscale uses non standard ports, now everything works perfectly for me, thank you so much !

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Great to hear. It's interesting I've also read about the opposite case, where Tailscale doesn't work for some people and Meshnet does. I guess there are so many potential network configurations it's hard to find a one-size-fits-all.

But how can you turn on the PC if you are on a different network?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

That's a slightly more complex matter. In theory, Moonlight supports Wake-on-Lan, but in practical terms turning on the computer remotely might have a number of issues, including security issues. It is doable, but depending on your specifications, it can get tricky (apple straight away forbids it on their systems). On the other hand, having the PC in sleep mode or hibernating and waking it up from moonlight works absolutely fine.

[@xsublime]

@CloudGamingCouch Ohh, I get it. Thanks a lot for the video, it was very interesting and you explained it quite clearly.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Appreciated. Thanks for watching!

[@luciangeana]

I think you can buy a wireless socket and control it (on/off) from remote. There is an option in Bios for the computer to power on when you plug the cable in it, and it will automatically starts. After that, install Parsec and let it be opened as a startup up, acces your pc remotely and then start opening the Sunschine and Moonlight, configure it. After configuration, exit Parsec and enter the Moonlight.

[@vortextesla627]

Works like a charm. Thank you so much, my friend. Do you think it could happen, that tailscale will be not free anymore in the next time?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

I don't think that's a probable outcome. Tailscale already have paid options and they have actively chosen this area of their business model to be free. But even if they changed their mind, I have another video in this channel where I show how to do the same thing with Nord VPN Meshnet, which is free too. And there's even another option called Zerotier to explore. So plenty of free options around.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

That's correct! I recommend you to test this out first, to know how well it runs with your specific phone network. That will allow you to make any resolution or bitrate adjustments for a better performance. I was very pleasantly surprised with mine though.

[@kappakai2329]

thanks for the great video, how would i wake up my pc from another network?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Assuming your PC is just asleep or hibernating and not turned off, you just need to go to the moonlight client and on the "sleeping machine" pick "Wake-on-Lan ". In a few seconds it should be up

[@moses4751]

tbank youuu

[@nmsachar]

I set this up but - how do you enter the pin on the host machine running sunshine remotely? Ant good solutions for this?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Entering the pin remotely? That's not possible. You only have to enter the pin once per client (not per game), so you have to do this manually. It's not possible to do it remotely because you need that pin entered before you get remote access.

[@fianmu]

how about latency ? which better UPNP or Tailscale ? thanks for this video

[@CloudGamingCouch]

The general consensus is that UPNP is usually more convenient for gaming, but not necessarily faster. It depends on the type of server you are connecting to. But personally, I don't care at all, because UPNP is such a big security hole, that I would never enable it, even if it improved my latency. Sure, jumping from a plane without a parachute is faster... but is it safer? :D

[@denizkendirci]

I prefer zerotier, but it's essentially the same, so it's a personal preference.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Absolutely. I also did another video with Nord VPN Meshnet which is, again, another similar option.

[@ramama987]

Hmm, how is the latency? And what bandwith do I need for 4k 60fps? And how does it compare to, let's say, steam link? Bc that one has a lot of latency even on the same network...

[@CloudGamingCouch]

First of all, a properly working Sunshine/ Moonlight setup is by definition much better than Steam Link. Now, remote connection is more dependant on the quality of your connection, for obvious reasons, but in good conditions it's very playable. This being said, 4K 60fps is going to be very difficult with a remote connection unless the conditions are extremely favourable. At least, by today standards. As time passes and we get better connection standards, it will become more and more feasible.

[@ramama987]

@CloudGamingCouch Got it. Thanks for the reply! I got here because I got a suggestion on reddit to sell my portable eGPU and go for a Sunshine/Moonlight streaming from a PC that would be much much beefier than a laptop. I will try to set everything up following your video, and test it out!

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Sounds good. I recommend you to start with my other video and do the regular Moonlight/Sunshine setup. When you get that working, then try the remote version explained here. It will make everything easier.

[@devandrauchihafingerstyle8790]

How do I make the internet connection stable in tailscale? if I use the same network without tailscale then the game I play is smooth, but if I play on a different network using tailscale then my game lags.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Hi. What's the bandwidth for the new network? That's quite relevant since it might have nothing to do with Tailscale. One test you could do is to try NordVPN Meshnet ( I have a video about it too). If it lags with that one too, then the issue is probably the new network.

Oh, weird. Could your ip have changed? Also, as a test, does the regular connection through wifi (without Tailscale) work?

[@aLeXb411]

@@CloudGamingCouch The IP address shown on the admin console of tailscale is the same. My router has my WAN Connection type as Automatic IP. Should I change this to Static IP? Regular connection through wifi on the same network works fine. FYI - I am using a handheld windows device (ayaneo) to connect to my main gaming PC.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Regarding the automatic vs static ip, I'm not sure it's the culprit, but it might be worth trying if it's quick. You're not the first user to have issues with Windows Handhelds, which makes me suspect about their security settings. Another thing to try might be configuring from another device. Let's say an android phone? Finally, if you can't get it to work, another option would be to try my other video with the equally free NordVPN meshnet, and see if that works. Just some options for you to try.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Oh, sorry. I thought you were trying with WiFi, not with remote. I don't think you can get any vpn software for the Vita. Maybe you could get vpn connection by configuring the vita to use a proxy server, but that would defeat the purpose of going remote. Your only chance, in my mind, would be using the old port forwarding method, which I don't recommend since it's very insecure. Sorry, I can't think of anything else. Maybe someone else will. The ps vita is a very cool device but very old.

​Hello there my friend. I need some help over here if you can. On my first time trying to access the desktop from really far away it is not working at all.. I am using Tailscale as the VPN service and it seems my desktop is being listed offline even that it was seen online till yesterday 23:30.. Any ideas on how to solve this? Or what could be the problems?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Hi. Maybe your desktop is hibernating? Have you tried the option "wake on lan" from moonlight on the "sleeping" system? This has happened to me in the past and it comes back in a few seconds

[@gabrielcorso]

@@CloudGamingCouch didn’t want to use wake on lan due to the lack of security.. can I set it through Tailscale without compromising security? I’m also using a smart plug to be able to turn pc on and off with Alexa.. so it shouldn’t be hibernating, right?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Yes, it shouldn't but it also depends on your Windows settings. Also I believe that wake on lan shouldn't compromise your security if your system is already on. It's just a small nudge on Windows to wake it up. It's hard to help from here with custom solutions such as yours. I hope you get it to work!

[@gabrielcorso]

@@CloudGamingCouch I’ll probably gave to go back and set it all again.. Do you have any tutorials on how to use wake on lan with Tailscale or smth? I don’t really now a low on this matter..

Wake on lan is an option in moonlight. Right click your supposedly offline system and select wake on lan. If your system is hibernating it should come back in seconds. No need for extra setup by default.

This is a helpful tutorial that I can't get it done cuz tailscale won't open on my windows 11 Do you know what could possibly caused it?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

hi there. Glad to hear you find the tutorial helpful. Unfortunately no one has reported such problems with Win11 and Tailscale recently. In fact, my version is running on Win11 without issues. Assuming the usual suspects are covered, such as running it as admin, updating your Windows and making sure your antivirus isn't stopping Tailscale from running, the next thing I would do is to check your services to see if Tailscale appears there when you try to open it. Is the process there at all? Do you get any error messages?

[@_Chelik_1]

Is it possible to not install anything on the client at all, but just log in from the browser? Because clients can be different devices, and you don’t want to download moonlight again every time.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

No, the whole idea is to use the client. In fact that's the main reason Moonlight is available for every format under the sun. Downloading and installing Moonlight is usually the fastest and quickest part of the process. Also Moonlight provides a much more streaming friendly format than a browser. Browsing on a PC is ok, but on some other devices like a TV playing from a browser is awful. Moonlight solves that.

[@austinpohjola]

I appreciate the helpful information; however, I am wondering about the safety of this. I am currently on a public network and I would like to stream my pc through tailscale without allowing access to my PC to others on the Lan. I'm sure that it isn't an issue now as I already need a vpn to use moonlight, but I would like to be safer in the future with other LAN's. Is there a way to configure sunshine to only allow computers on tailscale to access the stream? Could I use the tailscale provided ip address in external IP setting to achieve this?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Hi. I have thoughts :) First of all, this setup compared to the traditional "manual port forwarding" is WAY safer. So, for starters, I'm explaining a much more secure and straightforward way to do things. I think that's value in and of itself. Secondly, as you know, Tailscale is essentially a VPN, and being built over Wireguard, it is quite secure. It is considered a pretty safe system in general, and the only alternatives to make this more secure and equally performant require a looooot of manual tinkering, which 99% of the people don't want to go through (me included). This being said, you are still opening remote access to your machine, and that, by definition, is going to be a potential security risk. I guess, if you wanted to be 100% safe, you would use a separate gaming machine that only has games installed into it, and keep it isolated from the rest of your personal network. Of course, that requires some extra hardware. Regarding your question, on Sunshine's option for external IP, you are right in theory, but in practical terms I seriously doubt that option by itself would provide a stronger security and less "back doors" than Wireguard does already. I hope my opinion helped, and thanks for watching!

[@chrisdzierzon]

Hey, great video i want to use it to play some games on trips on my mac on my gaming pc at home. I tried it out and it works but it alwys says on the client "slow connection to pc, reduce bitrate" except putting the bitrate to a minimum is there anything else i can do to make this better? For the test my mac is on a 5G mobile network. And another question, is it possible to remotely start my pc through that?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Hey. Regarding the bitrate, it is very bit dependant on the bandwidth. Yes. Besides the bitrate setting, there are other options to tweak such as resolution, frame rate or frame pacing, but at some point you might need to accept that a 5g connection isn't going to give you a high resolution streaming with high quality image and low latency the way a regular high speed wifi would do. Regarding starting your PC remotely, it is possible, but it does require a bit of network knowledge. But it is possible to use the "Wake On Lan" option from Moonlight to wake up a sleeping/ hibernating system. It's what I do, so your Pc won't use almost any energy until woken up. If you do it, I recommend checking your Windows settings and disabling the security password after sleeping. (But keep it after reboot, for security purposes). Just my 2 cents.

[@chrisdzierzon]

@@CloudGamingCouch hey thank you for your answer. i tried it now with the neighboors wifi which is fast but it still says the same... is there anything I can do in sunshine/moonlight or tailscale?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

If you just use Moonlight and Sunshine WITHOUT Tailscale (you might need to change the IP on Moonlight) do you still get the same message?

[@chrisdzierzon]

@@CloudGamingCouch so you mean if I use it within my own network? then it works flawless, tried it with my macbook and the shield

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Yes, that was the first test. OK, so back to the remote version (the one with Tailscale). Have you tried lowering A LOT the default resolution on Moonlight just to see if it gets rid of the bitrate message? If it does it looks like a bandwidth issue, but if it doesn't then something is surely off.

Im trying to play on a 300 download and about 30 mbps upload in another city but keep having poor connection on moonlight. Could this really be an internet issue? Even on the lowest settings its just choppy but when im at home it's perfect. Recommendations?

Unfortunately, there are many possible variants, but with that bandwidth I would definitely expect a decent playability. Out of curiosity, have you tried the "other" option with NordVPN Meshnet? (I have a video about it as well) The only reason I'm asking is because some router settings seem to react better to one solution than the other by default.

sry for the ignorance but, does this makes my internet connection (on the pc or the client device) to be filtered through a VPN?

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Hi. It's a good question. The best answer I can give you is this: Yes, Tailscale acts as a VPN with some added functionality. Does it make you anonymous, the way some other VPN providers promise? (Although that isn't really true) not by default, but you could configure an option called "exit node" in order to "blend in" with the crowd the same way those other services like NordVPN do. But yes, by definition, Tailscale creates a VPN in a very simple and smart way.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Possibly. I just ran a quick speed test on Ookla and I was getting 10 times that speed on my 5g connection, which actually rivals my wifi, although the pin was higher on the 5G, and probably stability is lower too. It's obviously very dependant on your connection speed. But even then, this setup allows you to play from another strong wifi far away, which still holds value, I think.

[@danangadi7504]

When i use it or any other vpn it give me poor connection and high latency.why? Even My network speed i good

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Hi there. As usual it's hard to evaluate from here. Does your streaming work well when you only use Moonlight and Sunshine without Tailscale? If the answer is yes, then I would try using Tailscale but testing on a really low resolution and frame rate on Moonlight, just to see if you get an stable connection.

any method to fix high ping issue bro?😅

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Network Latency (or ping) is very dependant on your connection to be honest. The first port of call would be lowering your bitrate or even your resolution to see if that improves your latency.

Never use gaussian blur filters to hide private information. It is secure only for human eye but easily recovered by AI.

[@CloudGamingCouch]

Oh, interesting! What do you recommend to hide delicate info then?

[@JamesSmith-ix5jd]

@CloudGamingCouch Solid color, clear enough for it to be understood as hiding something, like bright red. Black or gray can blend with the content, which may not be the desired effect.

Thanks! Will do for future videos! Good tip
