Strangely, I just spent about 2 hours configuring Wake On Lan last night before I found this thread.
This http://www.dslreports.com/faq/wol?text=1 article was very useful. I'm not in front of my Home PC now, so I can't remember exactly what I did to get remote WOL working through my Netopia DSL modem and Belkin Wirless router, but I can wake my PC from anywhere on the Internet. I think I forwarded any packet UDP recieved on port 9 to 192.168.2.255. Only the PC wakes up because the magic packets have the MAC address embedded within them. Now that I have it working, I would like the SB2 to wake my PC. And I don't mind having to manually enter the MAC address of my Slimserver into the SB setup to enable this. IPCONFIG /All returns info on 3 Network adapters on my machine (Firewire 1934 & Bluetooth appear as pseudo ethernet adapters) so it might be quite difficult to figure out the correct MAC to use when the SB constructs the magic packets. I'm sure someone who knows more about Networking than I do can tell us how difficult it would be to determine the MAC address of the Slimservers NIC. How do we get a status update on the request http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=331 http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200 -- oreillymj _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
