Having a problem getting Wake on Lan to work, and I'm hoping someone can clarify for me what Kodi's expected behavior is regarding WOL.
Here's the deal. Currently when I LAUNCH Kodi, it wakes up my NAS as I want it to. The problem is, I set Kodi to suspend on a timer, as it's being used in an "appliance style" for my HTPC. And upon waking up, when I go to play a file, it doesn't show the same "waking on lan" message with the progress bar. instead, it simply hangs for about 60 seconds, and my NAS never wakes up. I'm confident the issue isn't with my NAS or network, as Kodi is clearly capable of waking it up, just not on playback or wake from sleep.
Is this expected behavior, or have I run into a bug/configuration issue? My HTPC system is using the last stable 32bit Krypton release from the DSplayer fork, but I get the same behavior/issue when using V18.7 Leia from my Mac.
If logs would be helpful I can grab them from my machine later today.
