Sending WOL package through router's dashboard media server always wakes up even after PC is shutdown overnight.

Immediately sending WOL package after shutting down media server with above configuration worked. I also tried specifying the device ip (in picture Geräte IP) to 192.168.178.31 it didn't work either.ĭidn't work = sending WOL package after PC has been shutdown/suspended/hibernated for 30 minutes, media server did not turn on. I did change the broadcast address (in picture Broadcast Adresse) to 192.168.178.255 it did not work. The MAC-address is also set to my media server. This is the setting I used to send out WOL (client from Google Store: Wake On Lan from Mike Webb): This leads me to believe I have a wrong configuration for sending out WOL packages and the package is lost during routing because it forgot where to send the package. However when I send a WOL package through my router's dashboard my media server always wakes up. After 30 minutes sending WOL package my media server is no longer waking up. When I shutdown my media server I can wake up my media server with my phone or other devices. WOL is working in principle but I probably have a routing issue. I've successfully woken up my media server from shutdown and suspend/sleep modus. I've enabled WOL on my media server (BIOS settings + LAN adapter configuration + device manager). The media server (running Win10) is located in the living room, connected to a Fritz Repeater. The switch is connected to the smartTV, the RPi and the media server. The living room repeater is connected to a switch.
