(hope you saw my edit comment above)
As to your recent post, yeah, I get it: Sending WOL magic packets to a device that is already awake has no real benefit. And I totally get that it does not reset any "clock" that keeps a count.
If it is on, no benefit. If it is sleeping, it them wakes.
The behavior of KODI WOL seems to be that if something is requested, the KODI WOL checks to see if it is awake and if not sends a packet. As Adv WOL relies on that already existing code it should work the same, I suppose.
The unfortunate thing is that I think I found a bug with the v21 code ... and if it (Kodi V21 WOL) can't work right, then Adv WOL can't work correctly either.
Thanks, but it looks like this won't help as a workaround for my existing problem.
