Hi, I’d appreciate if someone could help me. Thanks.
I’d like to switch on / off my LG TV with either WOL, Rest Command or Curl in an automation.
Homeassistant is running on a dedicated Intel Nuc on VLAN 192.168.20.xxx. LG TV on another VLAN 192.168.40.xxx.
In the config.yaml im having the following rest command specified:
rest_command:
wake_device:
url: 'https://opnsense/api/wol/wol/set'
method: POST
payload: '{"wake":{"interface": "opt4","mac": "ac:5a:f0:e3:0b:00}}'
content_type: 'application/json'
username: xxxx
password: yyyy
verify_ssl: false
With the rest command I’m calling the WOL Api from opnsense. I’m getting the following error when executing the rest command in an automation,
Führe die Aktion „rest_command.wake_device” aus
Ausgeführt: 23. Mai 2025 um 11:39:12
Ergebnis:
params:
domain: rest_command
service: wake_device
service_data: {}
target: {}
running_script: false
but there are no blockings in the firewall but consequently LT TV isn’t switching on.
Running the following curl commands in the home assistant terminal it works perfectly:
curl -k https://opnsense/api/wol/wol/set \
-u "xxxx/":"yyyy"
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"wake":{"interface": "opt4","mac": "ac:5a:f0:e3:0b:00"}}'
What I understand, it’s basically the same …
I’m not a dev or coder but I’d appreciate if someone could help me to get my LGTV on with an automation.
…that’s it! Thank you very much! The remarkable thing is, that there were no errors or errors in the logs. Anyhow, thank you
