An update.
From the advice given I have done a bit or research. The problem is probably because the SH2 clears the ARP cache. One tip I tried on another forum is to change the subnet mask to 225.225.225.128. The broadcast address then becomes 192.168.127 which the router will allow. However this does not work from the WAN but works via the LAN. Also changed the network adapter to fixed address. Now this is the strange bit. The PC now always wakes up when the Remote Desktop Connection starts (port 3389)

. Therefore remote access now works but not by sending a magic packet.

so basically it is just the shub being gay

How did you change the subnet mask on the SHUB2?

Via DHCP settings - see attached image.

.............I genuinely didn't realise that was an option on the Superhub.

as long as th shub1's mac is in the pool, they can and often do reactivate them, and having the mac back in a pool is just as easy. they are still on the reserve list to act as backup for the new shub2, shub2ac and 3 when it arrives. the real question is - when will they stop messing with the settings!

Hi, so is there a good solution to getting WOL to work on VM with the SH2?

i'm due an install soon and would like to be able to setup things so it does - if this means a new router then I want to be able to plan (and budget) for it.

Kabaal · 22-01-2015, 15:27

Anyone know if the ac will or can get the light dimming feature via firmware? Had my normal SH2 replaced with the ac and missing it already.

SnoopZ · 22-01-2015, 17:11

I miss it too, i hope they add the dimming to future updates.

Sephiroth · 22-01-2015, 18:04

IIRC, VM said that they didn't think it was an important inclusion. The Superusers on the VM Forum rather thought they needed the RAM for other operational features.

jb66 · 22-01-2015, 19:29

I always wondered why we lost that feature with a newer model

General Maximus · 22-01-2015, 19:31

me too, modem mode will be the next thing to go

Kabaal · 22-01-2015, 19:34

So that's a no one knows then. Kinda wish i could get the old hub back.

General Maximus · 22-01-2015, 19:43

you know what they are like for fixing bugs in firmware and getting round to do stuff. If they had any intention of adding it they would have done it by now like they did with shub2. I think the best we can hope for is that they listen to the community feedback (if it has been given) and they add it back in to the initial release of shub3.

Sephiroth · 22-01-2015, 20:27

The SH3 may not need dimming. I don't think it'll be a SH at all. I suspect they'll go for a vanilla Gateway with 16 or more downstreams and 8 upstreams (as a capability).
