My goal is to wake up my PC.
I have connected my Raspberry Pi directly through LAN to my PC. I have installed etherwake
and wakeonlan
, and both commands failed.
Well, actually it didn't really fail, on the contrary: it said it succeeded but my PC was still off and sleepy!
How I have found the mac address of my PC:
Also rechecked with:
I tried those two commands:
sudo wakeonlan <my mac address>
Outputs:
Sending magic packet to 255.255.255.255:9 with 00:25:xx:xx:xx:xx
and I get my console back (without anything happening),
and
sudo etherwake <my mac address>
didn't work. I got my console back without any warnings/succeed or something else.
Then I tried this command
sudo etherwake <my mac address> -D
Output:
The target station address is 0:25:xx:xx:xx:xx.
Packet is ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 25 xx xx xx xx 08 etc. etc.
Sendto worked ! 116
Can someone help me?
This is my motherboard:
asrock-z68-extreme4-gen3
Oh, and yes! Boot from onboard LAN is enabled!! I checked this like 10 times for now.
