WOL / Wake on LAN - Does not work on Homey

Hi guys,

I have a problem with getting WOL to work so I can power on my laptop with Homey. I downloaded the Wake on LAN app and created a flow with my MAC address but it won't work. I downloaded a free WOL program on another laptop so I could verify that the laptop I want to turn on over the network actually has the right settings. The funny thing is that the free program I run on another laptop actually turns the system on (puts it out of sleeping mode).

And the flow on homey does nothing.. Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?

Here is my flow:



Thanks for the help guys!

Kind regards,
Dennis

    Maybe you need to change some settings in your router.
    For each device, I've to make a setting in the router.
    For me wol works well.
  • Yep, tool works fine for me. 
  • @wros and @quakerix are you guys using your own router instead of the ISP one? Did you place the modem from the ISP in bridge mode?
  • Ok guys nevermind it works now!!! Let's say it was a picnic error.. Problem in chair not in computer...............
