WOL only works over wired network, won't work over wireless (true for the current generation of WiFi devices). The reason is obvious. Wireless device need to be connected to the network to receive the packets. When the wireless receiver is off, it is not connected to the network at all (unlike wired network). How does it receive the packet for wake up? If it can receive the packet, it is not off, it does not need WOL. -- Honva ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Honva's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14948 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76177 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
