WOL problem on NVX
I am trying to use the WOL function on a NVX If the NAS powers down, either by pressing the power button or using the built in power timer, then the WOL works if the packet is sent within a few min...
Although the post is old, I still write. Suddenly someone will need.
I have a TP-LINK TL-WR1043N (300M Wireless N Gigabit Router) and ReadyNAS NVX Business Edition (with RAIDiator 4.2.24). Both NVX network LAN adapters are setup in the automatic load-balancing mode. When the power of NVX is turned off, the LEDs of the LAN1 (upper) light up only. The MAC address of the LAN1 network adapter I used when setting up the router. I have a static external IP address. To turn the power on of NVX over Internet I have folowing setup of the router:
- enable the DHCP server on the router and set a static local IP address for the NVX (LAN1 MAC => IP)
- enable forwarding for UDP port 9 to the local IP address of the NVX
- enable ARP binding for the NVX (LAN1 MAC => local IP)
Next, I use www.wakeonlan.me. I type my external IP address (host name), MAC of LAN1 and click the button "Wake Up my PC".
That's all, NVX is turn on.
