I am running OMV 4 on my Dell Poweredge T20. So far, so good, I have my data on a 3x 4TB RAIDZ1 and I am able to access that via the network. However, I am still missing Wake on Lan functionality, or better "Wake on Access": When I was still using the T20 as a desktop PC (and server) running Windows 10, I could simply access the network shares from my laptop to wake it up from S3 standby after enabling "This device can wake up the computer" in the device manager. I would preferably have the same feature now using OpenMediaVault so that I can simply click the shares in explorer and have the NAS come online instead of having to send a WoL magic packet. Is that possible?
For now I "simply" tried setting up Wake on LAN, but not even that is working properly. Short summary of my network: my router is a Unitymedia ConnectBox, the T20 and my laptop are both connected to a gigabit ethernet switch (Netgear GS108GE), which is linked to the router through a Wifi repeater (TP-Link TL-WA850RE). The reason for that is to have a fast (1000 MBit/s) connection between my laptop and the server, while the router is sitting in another room. The router acts as a DHCP server while the repeater only passes on DHCP requests, but it replaces the first 6 characters of the MAC addresses of the devices connected to it with the first 6 characters of its own MAC address.
I now activated Wake on LAN in the T20's UEFI (running a Dell T1700 BIOS, version A23, to enable S3 standby) as well as in the network interface settings in OMV. However if I send a WoL packet (using mc-wol.exe) to the T20's MAC address (with altered first 6 characters or not), nothing happens.
Could you help me set this up correctly?
Thank you very much in advance!
