Openclaw doesn’t work remotely.
It gives “device identity required” error:

device identity required

This page is HTTP, so the browser blocks device identity. Use HTTPS (Tailscale Serve) or open http://127.0.0.1:18789 on the gateway host.

If you must stay on HTTP, set gateway.controlUi.allowInsecureAuth: true (token-only).

Docs: Tailscale Serve · Docs: Insecure HTTP

But gateway.controlUi.allowInsecureAuth is set to true in config.

This is the same issue as in here ([Bug]: `dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth: true` ignored in 2026.3.11 — Control UI rejects HTTP connections with "device identity required" · Issue #44485 · openclaw/openclaw · GitHub). But on the dappnode version it hasn’t been fixed yet!

Dappnode openclaw is basically not usable remotely.
