Thanks,
I found this after looking at the CPAN module
http://gsd.di.uminho.pt/jpo/software/wakeonlan/mini-howto/
Looks to me to be possible, but dependant on the network between slimserver and the squeezebox. Assuming they are on the same
subnet, then player could simply send the appropriate frame to to a broadcast or unicast mac address. If there is a router (doing
routing) in between then it will be harder and router specific (i.e. probably wont work)
In general if you need to manually enter the address of slimserver into the player then there is a router in the way and it won't
work....
[kdf - does this fit your observervations?]

Seems to me that some of the issue could be down to this - the specific way the
magic packet is encapsulated and forwarded on the
local network. Does anyone have acess to the source for the magic packet?
Here's the code I'm using. It's based on Net::Wake from CPAN.
