Wake on WAN
Posted: Mon Oct 10, 2011 3:29 am
Hello,
I've been playing around with WOL across my network, and was wondering if gargoyle supports WOL by allowing a UDP forward across port 9 to the subnet broadcast address 192.168.1.255. The naieve approach of port forwarding to 192.168.1.255 clearly is not a solution. Is there a way to achieve this?
Are there better methods you recommend? My end goal is simply to have the router send a magic packet across the boardcast address with some given MAC for the computer to wake.
