Fritzbox: wake on lan

It would be great if the wake on lan method of the Fritzbox was adopted as a switch. Wake on Lan normally only works in the same network. However, I have several Fritzboxes connected via VPN and would now like to have one device wake up. Currently I have to log into the Fritzbox interface, find the device and click on the button. I could generally activate Wake on Lan for the device in the Fritzbox and ping this device, but then it can also be woken up uncontrollably. I would therefore like to use the internal Fritzbox method.

Absolutely agree!!

I saw this and voted for it once and now 4 votes, I guess it’s very much wanted :joy:
And i need this one bcs my HomeAssistant instance is in a different subnet over wireguard

this feature will come with 2024.5 - you’ll be able to trigger WoL via AVM Fritz!Tools integration - see Add wake on LAN via Fritz!Box for tracked devices by chrisbraucker · Pull Request #106778 · home-assistant/core · GitHub
