I was stumped. I did not realize the ip would not be recognized with pc off, duh. Changing the subnet in the router worked great. Thanks for posting this solution. Running WRT54G. Glad I found this.

Just as nightrain, I have a v4 WRT54GS and subnet mask changing stuff didn't work. I also tried the JS method, I disabled refreshing pages but in this case the Apply Changes button didn't work. And if I enable JS after typing 255 I don't get the 0..254 error but after applying it says "invalid values". I don't want to upload a new firmware if it's not very necessary. Anyone can help me? Thanks: OBrien Hello!

One more things about the javascript trick... When using the noscript plugin, I had to disable the "automatically reload affected pages when permission changes". Otherwise the page is refreshed when the scripting is turned off, and all links and buttons (including the submit button) disappear. But disabling without refreshing still works--just make sure you are on the right page before disabling. The disappearing buttons things might be a new "feature" in more recent models (I have a WRTG54GS v.7 with firmware 7.50.0). Great tutorial!

I tested this and it seems to work great. I don't know why I never thought to try that first. :P If you decide to do this on your router, please double check that the IP address you entered is not less than 0 or greater than 255, as a number outside that range could permanently brick the router.

Once I did that, I was able to forward the desired port to the broadcast IP. It's just a javascript validation that you have to bypass. I used noscript plugin with Firefox for the job.

I could wake up computer from my LAN but not from internet. Something may happen with magick packet but id did not reach its destination. So I decided to install a new firmware in the router. I've installed dd-wrt firmware; that firmware includes some options for wake on lan that let you wake up a computer from the router's admin panel. So I created a registry with the eth card mac address and activated remote administration; this way I only have to access the router's admin panel and wake computer up. This is like waking it up from inside the LAN but it's accessible from internet. I have to try to wake it up from the internet without accessing router's admin panel. I haven't had time yet but I will try and let you know. I’ve changed router mac address but it did not work. I could wake up computer from my LAN but not from internet.

I've tried to do this but I've not could make it work. Some data: * I've got a wrt54gs v4 * My board supports wake on pme and it's on * I've activate wake on lan in eth card * I've changed network mask to 255.255.255.128 * I've redirected UDP por 9 to 192.168.1.127 I think that the problem is this: I have a cable connection; cablemodem gets the eth card mac to authenticate user first time it's used, so when I installed the wrt54gs I had to clone eth mac in router so that cablemodem recognizes it as a authenticated device. So I have router and eth card with same mac address ¿can this be the problem ? If so, is ther any way to solve this ? Thanks Hi.

Neither one of them had this problem, but the solution should still work as it is not router specific. Let me know if you have any problems.

I have a DI-704P router and have the same problem of not being able to forward to 192.168.0.255. Thanks! Leon Hi, Do you have to do the same with your previous Dlink router?
