RichTJ99 Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 Hi, I have been scratching my head on how to send a wake on lan signal (ping to port 7 I think) using my Windows Mobile cell phone. It occurred to me that if my main server is down that the ISY probably will be up & able to send a signal. I was thinking that maybe I could send that WOL signal as a program that I could run from my mobile browser in the ISY. Is this possible? Thanks, Rich
Michel Kohanim Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Hi Rich, Two conditions have to be met before you can do this: 1. The server has to be in sleep mode (not shut off mode) 2. You have to have a WOL rule for your server And, yes, you can wake up your server from the Program interface as long as you have a program that calls the WOL rule.

RichTJ99 Posted August 9, 2009 Author Posted August 9, 2009 Michel, I was able to configure my router & my cell phone to send the signal to have the router wake my server. How could this be done using the ISY ? In the program options on hte ISY, I dont really see anything that looks like it would help do the WOL command? How can I make the ISY speak to other network devices (non insteon)? Thanks, Rich
Michel Kohanim Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Hi Rich, I truly apologize for not being more clear mostly because I had assumed that you already have the Network Module. Adding Network Module to your ISY lets you do WOL as well as calling other networked devices (such as Tivo, Russound, Global Caché, etc.).

RichTJ99 Posted August 11, 2009 Author Posted August 11, 2009 Michel, Is there any type of trial, or screen shots of hte networking module? I think it would be worthwhile, but I would like to try it. Please let me know that is an option. I would like to try the WOL & Tivo to see how that would work for my needs. Thanks, Rich
