    My client trys to wake up the TV Server (MediaPC2) - but fails.
    In Setup the correct mac address is recognized.
    I also tried with Video share from Server.
    In the log there is to see that the Client tries to ping, but no success.

    But i can wake up the Server from my Fritz box - so WOL itself seems to work...
    Does anybody have same Problems -> and may be a solution :)?

    Ok, thank you for that advice. Does not work either. So i assume i have to check the client.
    no idea where to start...
    I think i will try a different client pc first.

    I think i found the reason.
    There is a newer wol.exe available.
    With that one can use
    wol <mac> <source-ip>
    That works.

    I have Windows 10 and more than one active network connection. (P.e. at least one virtual network card for a VM is active.)
    MP seems to use the network card with the highest priority - logically;-) Unfortunally on my PCs it is always the latest installed an not the LAN-adapter.
    My first idea was just to change the order of the network cards - but unfortunally that does not work in Win 10 anymore...

    May be more than me have that problem and it would be possible to add the source ip to use into the MP-WOL-feature ;-)?
    In the meantime i help me with a batch...
