wol when on an Omada LT2P VPN
HI, I have set up an L2TP VPN which seems to be working well but when I connect to my lan via this vpn the wol function to a PC does not work.
If my device is on the lan it can start the PC with wol so I know the start device & the PC can send/recieve the magic packet it only appears to be a probelm when my start device is connected via the VPN.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks

Have a looksee here, particularly the paragraph about 'subnet directed broadcast'. You may find an alternate format, ie a UDP datagram that can transit your VPN tunnel.
