Minwoo — Sat, 06 Aug 2022 17:49:43 GMT

Hi, I am finding a way to activate WOL with my google wifi router gen1, but couldnt find "how to" guide.
I am not a techy person, but trying to activate WOL in purpose.
Anyone can walk me through how to?
Or share a link explains A to Z of WOL with google wifi router?
Thanks in advance!

Maybe this old Reddit thread can give you some info:

It's not something you configure on Nest Wifi AFAIK.

Hi, Edward.

Seems Google Wifi Router doesn't support the WOL, I just gave up trying this option.

Thanks to following up on this issue, and if there's any walk-through solution for me, it Would be greatly helpful if you share it in this thread.

Thanks so much.

Hi Minwoo,

Thanks for the response. Like olavrb mentioned, this feature is not being configured on Google Wifi. Our team is always looking for ways to improve and we'll take this as feedback.

Thanks,

Edward

Hi everyone,

Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down after getting our explanation. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.

Thanks,
Jeff
