Wake on LAN not working from HA (help please)

Could you please share your config please? I am struggling with similar issue 🥲

I don’t use WOL anymore, for long time :frowning:

Old thread but i wanted to re add WoL in Home Assistant today and ran into some issues myself.
I didn’t need to use any quotes, maybe its bad practice and if so please tell. Note that i already had my machines configured for Wake on Lan (which seems to be off by default in at least all my machines BIOS settings)

I also use the add-on “RPC Shutdown” as i want the ability to shut down my Windows machines

Here are the entry in my configuration.yaml with RPC Shutdown

wake_on_lan:
switch:
  - platform: wake_on_lan
    name: a_name_for the_pc_in_lovelace
    host: 192.168.0.99
    mac: c2:35:2d:46:bb:cc
    turn_off:
        service: hassio.addon_stdin
        data:
            addon: core_rpc_shutdown
            input: the_pc_alias_in_RPC_Shutdown

The following are the stuff that you need to match your system, i changed the for this post

  • name: a_name_for the_pc_in_lovelace
  • host: 192.168.0.99
  • mac: c2:35:2d:46:bb:cc
  • input: the_pc_alias_in_RPC_Shutdown

Here are the entry in my configuration.yaml without RPC Shutdown

wake_on_lan:
switch:
  - platform: wake_on_lan
    name: a_name_for the_pc_in_lovelace
    host: 192.168.0.99
    mac: c2:35:2d:46:bb:cc
