Proxy

Open zieglerjm opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Would it be possible to send the WOL request over a proxy? In my case I am using ssh as a proxy to tunnel into my home network. I am a C# guy but hate VB, I will see if I can find a way to update the VB code.

I prefer C# too. I'm not sure if your proxy is able to send out a "broadcast" packet? If so, then it should be possible. The packet itself is very simple. I had a similar issue at home which is why I built the "agent" program which simply re-transmits to a broadcast packet. I use VPN to connect to my LAN.
