I have a PC that I like to use as a server for game servers/files/jellyfin/whatever, and I am trying to wake it remotely from outside my LAN. This involves binding the MAC address of the machine to an IP address. I have already given it a static IP but apparently this is not the same thing as it doesn't push the magic packet properly when the machine is in sleep.</P><P>Is it possible to do this with the EE Router or do I need to buy a more advanced one?</P><P>Thanks!</P> Wed, 14 Jun 2023 12:56:43 GMT JaayB 2023-06-14T12:56:43Z https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Broadband-Landline/Bind-IP-to-MAC-Address-in-Smart-Router-Manager/m-p/1263628#M82144 <P>Hi all,</P><P>I'm trying to do exactly what the subject says.
