Hello, I can wake up my computer while I am on the same network but when I am on another network and try it it says, “Wake up command failed.” I have ports 7 and 9 forwarded and in windows firewall. How can I fix this?

 

Thanks!

Wake on LAN generally does not traverse gateways since it's a UDP broadcast. The only way to get around this by-design limitation is to the enable routing of broadcasts between subnets in your router.
