It is probably best to use these steps here now and I believe this would persist between updates:

1. Open a terminal window on your computer. On macOS, you can open the Terminal app that’s installed by default on every Mac. On Windows, you can open Command Prompt or the PowerShell app.
2. Type in the following command `ssh -t umbrel@umbrel.local` and press the Enter key
3. Run `sudo docker exec -it tailscale_web_1 /bin/sh`
4. Then run `tailscale up --advertise-exit-node --accept-routes`

Note, you will then need to approve it from the admin console [login.tailscale.com/admin/machines](https://login.tailscale.com/admin/machines)
