kindiana,Are you the creator? If you are, which it sounds like you might be, you might want to disclose that information in your post.It's a neat idea, and it seems to be doing well, so congratulations, I shall be taking a closer look at it later.
Looks neat, I think it could be quite useful if it had some way to act as a watchdog for the PC. Perhaps it could be supplemented such that if the ACT light has not flashed for the last 30 seconds then reboot the PC (with software to force a cached read from the disk occasionally.) This could be a useful second use as a remote reboot controller.
A couple of questions:1) What percentage of modern MoBos don't support WOL?2) How many people use WiFi instead of the faster, more reliable ethernet with a desktop PC?3) How exactly is WOL less reliable?4) If someone can't forward port 0 how will forwarding port 80 be any easier for them?
Oh and add a reboot router feature, save me getting off my bottom to do it.
Hi Ben, great idea and project! WoL seems to be pervasive among all classes of motherboards, but implementations differ and reliability is variable.If you can, please post some more details about the security of your system. Are you developing the firmware directly from the SDK, or are you using a high level platform such as NodeMCU or Arduino?
