WOL no longer working after ISY to EISY migration


Recommended Posts

After migrating to EISY, the WOL no longer wakes up either of my two computers that did wake up consistently with my ISY944. I did re-save the WOL instance in the configuration tab, no go. Re-entered the information, saved, and then tested. No go. I did get it to fire once when I changed the subnet to 255.255.255.255, calculated, saved, and tested. But that no longer works now either. The WOL was previously used to start HTPC and office computers automatically when needed and is now a missed convenience.

@RDewit have you installed the Wake-on-Lan plugin from the PG3x store?

Information about this plugin: https://github.com/BME-nodeservers/udi-wol-poly/blob/master/README.md

I've never tried WOL, but seem to understand that the plugin is now needed to get things to work as it did with the ISY994. Please try it out. 

There is a forum specific area for WOL for assistance:

Thanks for the response, Geddy. I did not think that a plug-in was required as the WOL programming section in the EISY looks identical to the same section in the ISY944. I'll have to check this out.

@RDewit yeah, the ISY994 had wake-on-lan as part of the portal subscription. If you’ve been a user long enough it might have been in the old “networking module” purchase before that was rolled into the portal subscription. 

The Polisy and eisy stopped using the module add on method and used Node Servers (now called Plugins). Thus the reason to need to make the Wake-on-Lan plugin. You should be back in business once added and setup.
