I had the same idea !
And a nice shortcut on my desktop to shut the diskstation down.
This was I can easily start/stop the diskstation.

There are a few ways to packet and wake on lan.

I prefer a Magic Packet implementation.

Net....
Product Model: DS-106
Firmware Version: 2.0.3 - 0640

I have my reasons for my insanity....

The other way around

Postby adamszki » Wed Nov 01, 2006 10:51 pm

I would prefer to use the DS as a wake-on-lan gateway. As the device is low power, and has quite a good power managment I dont see much sense in shutting it down completely and then waking it up via wol. It would be great though, if there would be the possibility to access the web managment (and/or directly linkable page, e.g. /photo) where one could wake a device on the LAN (especially from outside of the LAN, given some user rights/password protection for the page). I dont know how many ppl need this, but I do occasionally need to boot up my home pc from work and to access it.

this can be made via php I guess.
Just create the magic packet and send it via a socket
this all CAN be done by php

100% working HDD hibernation is more needed than DS sleep/wake-on-lan since, as you write, the DS isn't using that much power. But, with the requested trend of faster processors/more RAM, suspend/sleep will be more and more useful.

WOL gateway

Postby adamszki » Fri Jan 12, 2007 8:28 pm

Hi,

I have it worked out. I have installed ipkg, openssh (not really needed for wol, but it is safer that standard telnet, especially if being accessed from outside + it allows tcp tunneling) and i have installed the wake-on-lan ipkg. So right now, I can use the DS106e I have as a central gateway for my home network (wol + tpc tunneling).

You can not wake up the station just with a ping or a port-scan ;)

You have to use the magic-packet record to do it...

I was hoping for WOL in the nex X07 series, since I am using a DrayTek Vigor 2910VG router which is capable of doing WOL with attached devices.

Althoug power consumption is not very high when in standby, the 11 watts that my DS-101g+ draws when it is in standby is still too high.

If the server would allow for WOL then I could start it from a remote destination and therefore I could save a lot of power because I don't need the server to be running 7x24 hours in standby/idle.

Please implement WOL for all your future products and please find a way to implement this feature for the 101g+ too.
