Wake On Lan with R7000
Hi,
i get my new R7000 today and have an Asus RT-N66U before.
The Asus WOL work fine but i found no way to use WOL with the R7000.
With the R7000 i cant use 255.255.255.255 as Subnetmask to use WOL.
Is there no way on the R7000?
I was an very urgent feature for me and when it doenst work, i send back the Netgear and buy tne Asus 68U
Hi Riker.
Now that I've confirmed that the removal of my solution was a moderation, I'll try repeating it from memory (I was actually using this thread, bookmarked, to remember how to do it).
- Download TelnetEnable from here: https://github.com/LuKePicci/NetgearTelnetEnable/blob/master/binaries/windows/telnetenable.exe?raw=true
- Open a DoS/Command Prompt on a PC directly connected to the same LAN and type 'telnetenable.exe <router-IP> <router-MAC> admin <admin-password>'
- Telnet to the router
- Type 'arp -i br0 -s x.x.x.x mm:mm:mm:mm:mm:mm' where x.x.x.x is the WoL destination IP address (not .255) and mm... is
the WoL destination's MAC address
You should then have a static ARP entry in your router. Set up forwarding of port 9/UDP to your device you want to wake and it should work.

Hi cpufox.
You're running the exact version that worked for me in Post #28, so it's known to work in that release. The "send failed" error makes me think it's on the PC side, rather than the router side.
Two wild guesses off the top of my head:- Are you running as Administrator in Windows?
- Can you try another NIC (network card) or even Wi-Fi?
Good luck. It should just "work" if you're running the latest version of telnetEnable.exe.

- Anyone can tell me how to run the telentenable command from win 7 x64? It says its incompatible with 64 bit version. There is no link to a 64 bit version anywhere...

Oh man, thanks a lot Dave. I just right clicked on the exe and "saved link as". Didn't realize I had to go into it and click and Raw. You learn something everyday. All is good, arp entry added and WoL working across the interwebs.- Hi !
WoW has been working fine for months and suddenly stop working after a firmware update... So I 've been reading this post very carefully.
I did run the "telenetenable.exe" successfully but I still can't wake my PC over internet...
I set a static LAN IP
I opened a port for this IP
My no-ip ddns is running fine
So i'm lost... A little bit of help would be really nice :D - Ok !
I finaly managed to get perm entry in my router's arp talbe for the computer I want wake up thru internet but it still doesn't work !
I'm sure that i'm forgetting something really stupid :p
- Perm entry in ARP table
- Fixed local IP
- Port is open (at least it should be but this tool keep saying that the port is closed http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ )
What am I doing wrong ? Is there a way to know where the magic packets are stuck ?
Thx ! :)
