Actually, when sending WOL packet over internet, we need the ability to specify a specific port to send it to for the url/ip address & mac address. Because the WAN router firewall needs to enable a specific port to accept external WOL packets and forward to. So in settings, it would be great to be able to specify the following: MAC Address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx WOL Port: _____(up to 5 digits or if left blank use default) if I filled in 00:11:22:33:44:55:66 and port 9 (or whatever the WAN firewall has setup to port forward to), then when you send a wol packet, send it to the server address (either internal ip or external ip/url) with the mac address above and port 9. The WAN modem/router would then need to setup port forwarding for anything external to port 9 and forward to the internal broadcast ip address (192.168.1.255 or 254, etc) which then would send that packet to all pc's in the LAN. This prior sentence is a WAN/LAN router requirement as far as I can tell. The way iPeng currently works of sending the WOL packet to the url of the server and port 9000, does not get forwarded to the server pc behind the WAN firewall if the server is external internet addressed and does not wake the machine up now. It does work properly if ipeng is connected to the wifi of the lan behind the router, and is internally routed and does wake the pc up properly however. Regarding Pandora, the problem is happening when using SC. Not sure if it is a problem in SN.
