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.

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 ! :)
