Netgear FR114 (FR114W) Wake On LAN / Magic Packet?

From: <crislc@gmail.com>

I'm running a server at home, but I don't want to leave it running all


the time because of power consumption.  A more experienced tech


suggested that I buy a Netgear FR114 router (specifically, I found a


cheap FR114W) because it supported LAN-side multicast/broadcasting.  In


theory, I should be able to send a magic packet to wake my server; in


practice, I've found that the router is dropping that packet.



Anyone else tried/succeeded in getting the magic packet or any other


WOL techniques to work?
