Tailscale using relay service,slow connection

I travel frequently and use my Synology NAS and Ugreen NAS as a Tailscale exit node. Recently, my connection speeds have dropped significantly, sometimes down to 1 Mbps when using Tailscale outside of my home country , seemingly because the connection is routing through a relay server.

Two months ago my ISP resolved a connection issue. Since then, I get 700+ Mbps while paying for 120 Mbps and all websites that are blocked in my country are now accessible without a VPN and coincidentally I am having this issue with my Tailscale connection speed.

Any advice on how to resolve this or force a direct connection? I do not want to change ISP because options in my area is limited.

Non immigrant O visa issue

I am qualified for Thailand retirement visa but I am from a country where Thai embassy does not give Non immigrant O visa and only gives single entry tourist visa or medical visa! Retirement visa requires to have 800,000 baht sitting in Thai bank account before applying but I cannot open a Thai bank account on tourist visa. I talked with an agent and they said they “have a way” and will show I had money in Thailand bank for 2 months before arriving on my tourist visa and I can apply for the retirement visa on the next day of arrival. But I do not want to do any illegal stuff to get my retirement visa.

  1. What can I do?
  2. Will I get in trouble if I follow my agent advice?

Good decision buying apartment in current situation ?

Hi everyone, I currently have 350,000 USD and was thinking of buying a studio or 1 bedroom apartment in Dubai and just get rental income. I do not want to increase the price and sell for profit later. Only purpose of this purchase is for Rental Income. I have some medical condition and have limited mobility and not able to get normal work so this rental income will be very important to me. Maximum I wanted to spend 200K USD on this property purchase.

  1. Do you think it will be a good idea to purchase now?
  2. Is it difficult to get tenants even if I price 5-6k AED below market rent?

*BTW I DO NOT LIVE IN UAE

Process of buying apartment as a non resident

Hi everyone, i am wanting to buy a ready studio apartment in Dubai and just renting it out. But I am from a country that UAE has a shadow ban on tourist visa and I am only able to get 96 hours transit visa.

  1. If I choose apartment before landing in Dubai, how long does it take to transfer property to my name ?
  2. Can people on transit visa convert their visa to property investor visa?
  3. I do not have any bank account in UAE,how do I make payment for the apartment?
  4. If I do not get investor visa and no residency,then I will not be able to get bank account, so how do I receive the apartment rent?
