# Enable Networking
- Click "Tailscale Login" in the top right corner.
- Log in to Tailscale (create an accout if you don't have one)
- If you want to access the public internet, you need an Exit Node. See here for how to set one up. If you just want to access a machine in your Tailscale Network, you don't need it.
- Depending on your network speed, you may need to wait a few moments for the Tailscale Wasm module to be downloaded.
- Log in with your Tailscale credentials.
- Go back to the WebVM tab. You will see your IP address in the top right.
- Start firing network requests!
Given the short-lived nature of WebVM, we log into Tailscale as an Ephemeral Node. This means that the node will disappear from your Tailscale Network after a period of inactivity. It also means that when you reload the tab, you need to log in again. It should be faster the second time.
