Wake On LAN Sniff Works But Still Won't Wake When Shutdown
Dec 25, 2012
Trying to configure my desktop to Wake on Lan. I have the BIOS set to WOL(PME) enabled, i have the ports set up, and everything. I installed a WoL Sniffer on the desktop, and sent a wake up command and the sniffer showed it came through (with the correct FF FF FF FF FF FF <Mac address repeating>). The router it's hooked up to has the UDP port 9 forwarding, ad that's what my WoL tool is sending, and i see the light by the ethernet port and it does indeed flash repeatedly when i try to send the WoL magic packet.However, nothing happens. It's shut down, plugged in, i used the soft shut down from windows,If it was the router, then the light wouldn't flash when sending it...
I live in an apartment complex with no access to whatever router is giving my room internet access.Will this prohibit me from opening port 9? From my research, I've learned that this port must be opened in order for the magic packets to be sent through to wake my PC up.
I want to be able to turn my PC on through my Samsung Galaxy tab. So far I've only been able to do it whenever both my PC and my tablet are on the same wireless router. But how can I do this when my tablet is connected to a different wifi?I currently have a Netgear WGR614 router, but even if I configure that to forward port 9, would my apartment complex's router need to be configured as well?
I just got a d-link DIR-655. I had a WRT-54G before, and Wake on Wan worked fine (was built in to the DDWRT firmware) and so did remote VNC. Now that I have this one, neither work and I can't find wake on wan in the firmware and no outside utilities seem to work. I am using ultravnc and I did forward port 5900. Port forwading works on other things, I think, because I got web access to work for my NAS.
I've a RV120W Cisco ROUTER with last firmware released and I am not able to setup Wake On Lan: It works fine just switched off PC but after some minute (5/10) magic packet don't work. Router forgets address of PC ?
I've set-up Static DHCP with IP and MAC address of PC ?I've setup port forwarding in firewall menu?This setup is OK becuse for few minutes WoL works... but after some time it stops.
There is any setting to make RV120W managing WoL properly.
I am thinking of setting up Wake-Up-LAN on my current desktop. The only problem is that I am using a wireless router, and it would be impossible for me to connect it with a cable. Would it be possible for me to use a wireless router? If not, would it be possible for me to use another router, connect it wirelessly to the original router, and connect that one with my desktop?
I have been trying in vain to setup my home network so that I can perform wake on lan (WOL) over the internet. I have been able to do WOL with a magic packet utility within my local network - so I know that the PC NICS are configured correctly - but this does not work when I try it from my office for example, over the internet.
I have a virtual server set up forwarding ports 9 and 7, UDP to 192.168.1.101 initially, but found some threads about using the broadcast address so changed this, but still no luck. I had to downgrade to 1.20 from 1.21 as I found several threads here about firmware versions not allowing broadcasts.
My setup is as follows:
Router: 192.168.1.1 PC1 192.168.1.101 (static assigned by MAC address in the router) PC2 192.168.1.102 (static assigned by MAC address in the router)
I am trying to get WOL working across different VLANS on a SG-300-10 Switch in Layer 3 Mode. To achieve this, I've setup an UDP-Relay (GUI menu IP Configuration) for UDP-Port 7 to 255.255.255.255 (this should flood all interfaces with the paket), however, WOL doesn't work across different VLANS. When I am connected directly to the corresponding VLAN, WOL works fine within the same subnet.
In the bios from 745, 755, 760 and 980 is a option remote wake up: enable with boot to nic.On the bios from 990 this option is gone.Does some know how ik kan wake up my computer and start pxe.
I was wondering if you can use wake on lan on the studio XPS 1645.. i've been looking all over the internet but couldnt find anything usefull & the dell email option wasnt working.
I have a Dimension 4600i that doesn't want to Wake on LAN. I am running the latest BIOS (A10), Intel Chipset Drivers, and latest Intel Pro/100 VE Drivers. I set the Network Settings to Network w. PXE and the startup sequence is CD-ROM, PXE, Hard disk. I am actually using the PXE, that is exactly what I want. My only problem is I need to do Wake on Lan for the system to wake up and PXE against my backup server. So far, no luck. I have tried numerous utilities and when I send magic packet the thing just sits there, everything else works great, the darn thing just won't come alive unless I hit the power button.
I would like to configure my PC to be able to use wake on LAN/WAN mainly for power issues, so I don't have to have it on all the time to access anything I need. I bought a Linksys Cisco E 900 2 weeks ago. Now I am getting really frustrated since as far as I know I did configure everything needed for it but it does not seem to work nor through WAN or even in LAN.
What I did so far is:
1. In my BIOS I could not find a seperate wake on lan option under power management but I did find a "Power on by pci(e) device which I have enable.
2. I have a built in Realtek Ethernet card on my motherboard. In the setting I: Shutdown wake on lan - Disable Wake on magic packet - Enabled Wake on pattern match - Enabled Also the option to allow this device to wake up the computer using magic packet is also ticked.
3. I use Windows 7 and have installed and started Simple TCP/IP Services
4. I opened up UDP port 9 in Windows Firewall
5. I have set single port forwarding in the E900 to my reserved IP for both TCP and UDP port on port 9 and just in case port 7.
After all this it is not even working inside my LAN. Also I tried a port scanner and checking for open ports and UDP port 9 doesn't seem to be open. Why is that? Did I configure something wrong in the router?
this topic has been discussed under the v1 software and marked as solved yet it has not been. Has anyone attempted with version 2 software and been able to connect after the arp was flushed?
I need to configure my modem router wag320n let pass the magic packet to turn on my computer from the internet. I've already opened the door 7 to the computer ip but does not work. The bios and the OS are perfectly configured.
I'm hoping to get this router to allow WOL (actually wake on WAN) but it seems to be blocking the necessary broadcast magic packet even though the settings appear correct. It's not critical, but the reason is this: I'd like to shut down the home PC, but when necessary be able to start it up and use a VPN to access any info I need remotely.
From within the LAN, I can verity that WOL works. I have NIC and PCI WOL enabled in the BIOS. The NIC (a Marvel Yukon Gigabit) has WOL enabled as well as "allow this device to wake.." using magic packets under power management. The target machine's local IP is reserved through the EA4500 DHCP Reservation table. Just for troubleshooting, I opened port 9 in windows firewall. More importantly, I have ports 7-9 forwarded to my target LAN address. Single port forwarding... it just has been less reliable (?). I'm using a mask of 255.255.255.128 in order to enable broadcasting on .127 at some point as it seems it must be necessary. Broadcasting on .255 is not possible, despite some workarounds I found on the web. EA4500 firmware is the latest, 2.0.37. I have turned off the multicast filter and the anonymous internet filters under the security tab.
So, with these settings, I can WOL from inside the network no problem either targeting the LAN address, or by using a dyndns address. So far so good.With these same settings, I can go to WAN using Depicus or the Cloud Connect Pro app over 4G on an iPad. With all these same settings, WOLsniffer confirms the magic packet still getting through over WAN (obviously using the dyndns address). Even better, I can shutdown the target PC and STILL wake it up within a few minutes from WAN. Let me restate that! Wake up over WAN works, but only for the first few minutes after a shutdown.
However, if I wait 20 minutes or so, WOL stops working. If I change the port forwarding to .127, not only does it not work, but WOLsniffer will fail to see the magic packet. My conclusion is that the ARP table is getting purged, which is undertandable, and so the target LAN address isn't in memory. However, frustratingly the EA4500 will not broadcast no matter what settings you use. This limitation is undocumented, and counterintuitive since the software allows you to disable multicast filtering and does not notify you of an error when forwarding to xxx.xxx.xxx.127 with a 255.255.255.128 mask.
I'm having trouble trying to allow this device to wake the pc. Does WMP600N support this ? When i go into the power management section i have 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power' but the option for 'Allow this device to wake the computer' is greyed out ? I currently have driver version 3.0.2.0 installed.
We have acquired a cisco sge 2010 to replace our distribution switch. I set up the 802.1X network. Everything works great except I can not find how to enable 802.1x with 'Wake on LAN' on this kind of switch.
On catalyst I saw that it was sufficient to activate this control "authentication control-direction {both | in}" Except that it seems not to exist on this switch. Is there another way to enable 802.1x on WoL without using this command?
Or how to allow the magic packet (WoL) on a tagged port by unauthorized 802.1x?
I am trying to configure wake on lan for my desktop and I can't seem to get it. I have tried using single port forwarding under the firewall settings but it never works. The computer's BIOS has been configured to wake on lan and so have the Ethernet ports. I have an app for the iPad that i used to use ot send out a ping to my old router (E2500) setup that used to wake the computer just fine. But this new router (RV110w) does not work at all even with the same single port forwarding set up.
I'm having trouble getting my evga 680i to wake on lan from a powered off state. I've done it before but for some reason now it doesn't seem to work. I have formatted since the last time I used wake on lan.
I've got all the settings right in the bios and everything. WOL is enabled in the networking properties on the adapter and in the bios. I can wake from a sleep or hibernate state - just not powered off. Using a WOL test client it confirms it is receiving the magic packet.
When my comp is off I dont see the network port light up with the LEDs. I imagine this has something to do with it -- i just dont know what had to go to power management on the configure tab of my network adapter and uncheck the box "allow windows to power off this device to save power" even though I also had under that checkbox "allow wake on lan" checked.
My switch Cisco small business SG200-26G in modality link aggregation LACP the Wake On Line doesn't work !! (WOL work only in link aggregation non LACP..) I already upgrade the latest firmware but not resolved..
Recently I bought a Cisco RV180W and would like to setup an IPsec VPN server for my team. However, it's asking for the remote client's IP or FQDN. How would I know the client's IP if I'm using WiFi connection from different places? Also, I'll be using my iphone to connect and the IP is not static. Is it Cisco not going to support this feature or already working on a fix? I searched the internet and some of the old topic on this forum. Seems like it's an old problem for RV220W and I don't see any intension that Cisco is going to provide a fix.
Also, I have an NAS and a PC connected to the RV180W on LAN. Seem like it's not possible remotely turn them on using Wake On LAN.
I was wondering if it is at all possible to take full advantage of WOL if my network card supports it but my bios don't. I am considering buying a network card to that supports WOL. Would this work even if my bios don't have an option to WOL? I am running Windows 7 64-but on an HP Pavilion p6270z. And I am thinking of buying this network card:[URL] After buying this card I cannot figure out how to allow it to wake my computer from sleep none-the-less from shutdown?
I am trying to find a way of sending a notification message to computers that have been "woken up" by Wake On LAN, so that the user knows there computer is now up.
My wife has a COBY 10" netbook running Windows X home SP3., we use a NETGEAR N150 Wireless Router and for some time now, whether she boots from a cold startup or "wakes" this laptop, it has lost the network connection. It gets the "Wireless networks detected" message, sees our Security-enabled wireless network, but instead of automatically connecting, it always asks for the network key. I have a second laptop (Toshiba Qosmio) that I only use some othe time, primarily for vacations, and when I turn this on it always connects right to the network, even if we've been away and connected to a hotel network. I never have to use the key for our home network once I get back home.
She's getting pretty fed up having to constantly put in the network key on the COBY, this should be a "set it once" and it should remember it should it not? I'm sure it used to, have I missed something?
I'm currently on market to get a new ADSL/WLAN/Ethernet router to my home office and I'm looking at the WAG320N as it is all-in-one solution and also 1G ethernet ports for fast file transfer. My setup is that couple PC:s and PS3 is connected with WLAN and a NAS with RAID2 is connected with ethernet cable. The thing I would like to do is allow subnet directed broadcasts from WAN side so I could use wake-on-lan feature to turn my NAS on from remote location. Does the WAG320N option "Filter Multicast" has this capability so I can send "magic packet" from Internet to turn on my NAS? How to test the WAG320N to use WOL from internet side?
Region : Germany Model : TD-W8961NB Hardware Version : V1 Firmware Version : 1.0.0 Build 110707 Rel.32779 ISP : Telekom Germany
I've just ordered the TD-W8961NB to replace my set of Modem & Router by one device.
Actual I have TL-WR940N, where I managed the Wake on Lan over internet by a port forward on port 9 to the local IP and setting up an IP&MAC Binding for this machine in the ARP table. By reading the user guide of TD-W8961NB, I'm missing the ARP Settings. Is there any chance to setup the WOL over Internet on this ADSL Router?
how to set up my router settings/port forwarding to be able to use Wake on Lan with Depicus here is what I currently have:DHCP Reservation with the IP Address of my computer (192.168.1.xxx) and the MAC address xx:xx:xx:xx that I retrieved by doing ipconfig /all in the cmdMy Router address is 192.168.1.1 and the submnet mask is 255.255.255.0my DDNS service is disabledIn the Security tab, I unchecked Filter anonymous internet requestsIn Applications and Gaming, under single port forwarding, I have port 7 to 7, Both TCP and UDP, forwarded to the IP address of my computer 192.168.1.xxx and it is enabledMy network card is configured already, enabling WOL in the card's properties.Now when I use Depicus, I enter the MAC, my external IP address which I got from myipaddress.com, subnet mask I use 255.255.255.0, I select Internet, and then the remote port I use is 7,Doing that, nothing happens at all. however, I can easily wake up my computer if I am connected to the same local network at home.
I am trying to setup the WOL for our enterprise. We have a C4500 setup with mutliple Vlans. We are using Microsoft SCCM server to wake up workstations for security update. The workstations are on vlan190 and the Microsoft server is on vlan 441
Here's my config

Having issues waking NAS devices using a magic packet when using link aggregation on an SG300-28 switch.
Without link aggregation everything works fine so I know the magic packet is being generated correctly and the NAS device is correctly configured to wake. After configuring link aggregation the device does not wake. Have tried dynamic (LACP) and static link aggregation but neither allowed the device to wake? When the NAS is powered off, the ports in the LAG still show as being connected at 100M but it appears the magic packet is not being transmitted.
I am using RV220W with the latest firmware, I want to make "Wake on LAN" work for my NAS, I found the following description on Internet: "If you wish to use Wake On Lan over the internet you will need to set up your destination firewall/router to allow "Subnet Directed Broadcasts". Most routers and firewalls disable this option by default.You will then need to allow traffic through on your firewall/router on a specific port. The choice of ports is up to you."
So how can I enable "Subnet Directed Broadcasts" on RV220W?
I cannot get internet Wake on LAN to work via my wrt400n . (It works fine on my LAN - so I know that the pc is configured properly. Further, I know that port forwarding is set up correctly, as other applications are using forwarded ports and are working correctly). The issue seems to be that the magic packets are being blocked by the router or they are received but the router doesn't know where to route them. I monitor the network and the never see the magic packet on my subnet. how do I set up a static ARP route on the wrt400n? I suspect that I may need to create a static ARP to resolve the issue.
Region : UnitedKingdom Model : TD-W8968 Hardware Version : V1 Firmware Version : 0.6.0.1.1 V0005.0 bld 12016 rev 48690 ISP : Talktalk
yesterday (GMT) I received and installed my new TD-W8968 from Amazon and seemed to work a dream.. until today. The router connects to my desktop PC via a wired LAN connection but uses the wireless for laptop, TV, smartphone etc. Today I notice that when my PC wakes from sleep the LAN connection is lost. None of the LAN lights are on. And also there is no wi-fi connection either and even though WLAN light is on there is no signal at laptop. Setup is pretty much out of the box though I did reset channel to avoid conflicts locally. This is set to 7. The PC LAN adapter is enabled and ready but no apparent connection to router. I changed the router LAN port and that seemed to work but after I had the problem again this change did not work. I changed the LAN cable and that seemed to work until next sleep! Then fail again!
Is there anything on LAN adapter or router that needs changing? Am I on the latest firmware and would an upgrade fix this?
