I searched Wake On Lan in the forum but couldn’t find similar topic.
Is it possible to add Wake On Lan to S905?

There is a kodi addon, https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:Advanced_Wake_On_Lan

but it doesn’t wake my nas. so not sure how good it is.

I have an IOS app on my phone to wake my nas

https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:Advanced_Wake_On_Lan

Sends a WOL magic packet to a remote device using its ethernet MAC address and displays a notification if and when the device is available.

What I want is to wake up a S905 device

4

so, what device do you propose to send wol, from?

phone? pc? another s905? or ssh?

I appreciate your help but this question is a bit above your knowledge.
So please let the developers of CoreElec do the talking.

@anon88919003 What do you think about waking up an S905 device (MeCool KII Pro) using a WOL packet? Is it possible?

ethtool says:

Supports Wake-on: ug
Wake-on: d

eth0 Supports Wake-on: ug (unicast activity and magic packet activity),
but Wake-on: d (disabled)

I think you are right.

Would a systemd wol@.service work in CE like described here (in 13)?

WoL depends on support in u-boot and u-boot is specific on a per device basis.
