Yes, let me know if you want to continue trying.  This could benefit others if we can get it working.

Yeah, it's already unhooked and I don't plan on hooking it back up until it's at my dad's in a few days. My dad's computers are pretty old, so wake on lan is probably not an option on his computers. Since the wake on lan magic packet works from inside the same network, VPN seems to be the way to make this work on this router. If you can get connected to your router's network over the internet via VPN, the magic packet should wake the desired computer. Just make sure that channel 9 UDP port is forwarded (or virtual server) to either the .255 (broadcast) or the actual ip of the desired computer on your internal net. Sorry, I couldn't be more helpful than this, but maybe these suggestions put you on the right track.

Thanks for the info J, I'll work with Fo and this I guess. Probably be next year as I'm taking my 5500 on the road with me for the holidays. 

Good Luck and Happy Holidays.

Any luck with this?  I had WOL over Internet working with my DIR-655, but the same settings are not working with the DGL-5500 (using broadcast address)

Any status on this?
