WOL - Home Assistant


Recommended Posts

I’m trying to use Home Assistant (on a separate VLAN) to send WoL packets to a device inside my R3’s LAN. The R3 is connected via WAN to my main Unifi network, and the target device has a static IP on the R3.

WoL works perfectly from within the R3’s LAN, but I’m unable to wake the device via the R3’s WAN IP — even with a UDP port forward configured on port 9.

The only way I’ve been able to make it work is by placing the target device in the R3’s DMZ, which functions but isn’t ideal.

  • Does the R3 support forwarding inbound UDP traffic to LAN devices (including broadcast addresses)?

  • Is there a way to define a static ARP entry or otherwise allow WoL packets through without relying on the DMZ?

Any advice would be much appreciated.
