There are two possibilities: 1. your router supports WOL, then it has a port that you send the packet to (usually 9) and that's what you enter in iPeng.
2. your router does NOT support WOL, then you might still be able to use it. You'd have to open port 3483 also for UDP (not only for TCP as you do for iPeng's playback; you probably did already do that if you want to connect a Squeezebox remotely) and leave iPeng's default configuration as it is. Then iPeng will use port 3483 for the WOL packet and your router will send it to your server. This, however, depends on whether your server/computer also can use directly addressed WOL packets (usually they get broadcast, which is what the router feature would do) and also your switches and your router will have to remember the IP routes within your network. The problem is that when your computer is off, it technically doesn't have an address so the rest of your infrastructure has to remember how to send messages to it. WOL packets are usually broadcast and send to every device on your network and even in standby the network card will listen for the "magic" WOL packets and wake up the computer. I obviously can't tell you how your router's configuration works, I only have my own router which does not support WOL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
