I am trying to configure the server I run from my home with Wake on LAN so that it is not necessary for me to keep it running when I do not need it. I have been able to get it to work on when the packet is sent from my own network, but when I try to send the magic packet to the server from another network via UDP port 9, I am unable to get the machine to wake. Currently, my router lists the port forwarding configuration like so:
What is the problem? I've used Wake on LAN with the machine for some time on my network.
When I am trying to wake the machine, the machine is not in a sleep state. It is fully powered off. – DaveTheMinion – 2016-06-15T21:20:50.913
Same answer still applies. If you're able to use magic packets locally to wake (or trigger a boot of) the machine, but not able to use them from a remote network, it's usually that the router forgot what MAC address corresponds to your machine's IP address. – Spiff – 2016-06-15T22:29:36.263
Thank you for making me aware of this. Would you mind offering more assistance? - http://superuser.com/q/1089828/
