Support Fritz Backed up Wake on LAN via CLI
WOL only works on layer 2. In a mixed fixed/ wireless LAN environment, there can be situations where e.g. your home NAS is attached to the LAN port and in case you need it, you want to wake it up from your wifi connected notebook.
Fritz TR-064 exposes this feature and it would be handy to have it also available at the CLI.

i guess you mean #149 😉
Yes, just found out about my mess - sorry for the confusion.
@kbr tnx for the input and the suggestions. Will try to respond during the next days.
Hi! I saw that the related PR has been open for about a year now, with no further input from the original author. I just implemented the WOL API method in my fork in fritzhosts.py before I saw this issue/PR, in order to add it to the library interface.
I would like to see this feature and optionally the CLI addition through to get merged.
@kbr I don't want to trespass on @samba2's prior work without their permission but would like to offer my help, do you have a suggestion on how to continue working on this? I'd be up to refactor the CLI code according to your requests, or can write my own implementation instead.
@chrisbraucker tnx for picking up on that. Feel free to improve/ alter/ copy/ bin my suggested changes
@chrisbraucker In the next couple of weeks I'm short in time to go into this. But it seems you got confirmation from @samba2 to go ahead. I appreciate this kind of friendly communication very much and hope to join again as soon as possible.
