What is required to enable Wake on LAN over the WAN?
« on: July 23, 2014, 02:36:20 pm »

If the computer running jriver is up then I can connect via gizmo without any problem but WOL is not working.

If attempt to connect while jriver is down, my router logs say

Code: [Select]
[DoS Attack: RST Scan] from source: my.remote.ip, port 10046, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:28:12
[LAN access from remote] from my.remote.ip:10046 to my.local.ip:63412, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:28:11
[DoS Attack: RST Scan] from source: my.remote.ip, port 10045, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:28:10

[DoS Attack: Ascend Kill] from source: my.remote.ip, port 39033, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:28:06

If I attempt to connect when it is up, my router logs say

Code: [Select]
[LAN access from remote] from my.remote.ip:12416 to my.local.ip:63412, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:32:11
[LAN access from remote] from my.remote.ip:12415 to my.local.ip:63412, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:32:11
[LAN access from remote] from my.remote.ip:12414 to my.local.ip:63412, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:32:11
[LAN access from remote] from my.remote.ip:12413 to my.local.ip:63412, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:32:11
[LAN access from remote] from my.remote.ip:12412 to my.local.ip:63412, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:32:09
[LAN access from remote] from my.remote.ip:12411 to my.local.ip:9, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:32:09
[DoS Attack: Ascend Kill] from source: my.remote.ip, port 12411, Wednesday, July 23,2014 19:32:09

the router is configured to pass ports 7,9 (WOL) and 63412 (jriver) to the correct machine.

I guess this is a router issue given that it works over the LAN but I'm not sure what a working setup looks like hence I have no idea what needs fixing.

Thanks
Matt

Read http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=87316.0  and  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake-on-LAN#Wake_on_Internet

Also note that some routers do not allow WoL Magic Packets from the internet even if the ports are open. That may be hardcoded in the firmware, or a setting you can change.

OK thanks. It seems my router does not support Wake on WAN (unless I switch to using the DD-WRT firmware)

Does it support a VPN?

You may be able to VPN into your home LAN then either run Gizmo to start the server, or run a Magic Packet utility to start the server and then run Gizmo.

Of course that may be a bit much work each time you want to use Gizmo.  :-[

That I a good idea and a good find. Pretty easy to do as well. Certainly easier than switching to DD-WRT. Are you trying it out then?

I've never had to bother with ARP tables, or gotten into tweaking my router via telnet. Well, maybe a little bit, but nothing permanent. At least using that method you don't have to do anything each time you want to use Gizmo. But will the fix survive reboots (power outages) and firmware updates? Certainly a Reset will clear the table. ARP tables do get cleared and rebuilt pretty regularly I understand, but I guess a STATIC record should survive the normal rebuilds.

So, did it work?

I haven't tried it yet, will give it a go over the weekend though.
