is it posibble to send such packet through internet?

it could be too much of security risk so i guess not, but maybe...?

Is it possible to make this script start when XBMC starts? Not to start the script manually.

change that line that says

s.sendto(msg, ('<broadcast>', 9))

to
s.sendto(msg, ('<broadcast>', 7))

change the 9 to a 7 is all i had to do and it works for me hope that helps

Finally was a network card drivers problem. Incredible but true.

I realize this I am very late to the game, but, this weekend I coded a WOL script in python for the Xbox-XBMC. It allows for adding and removing MACs and is very simple to use. I used the library suggested by NikoKos @ http://gsd.di.uminho.pt/jpo/software/wak...python.txt to get WOL to work. It would be really cool if someone could whip up a nice GUI.

You can get my script at the link below:
