Alright, it's time to stop banging my head against a wall and start asking for help from someone here with knowledge of setting up wake on LAN-WAN since I've never done this until now and the last time I needed to forward a port was like 15 years ago.
I've been trying to set up wake on wan over TeamViewer for my computer at work so I can turn it on over the internet whenever I want and work more from home during this shitty time but no matter what I do it won't work. I've setup and tried changing various settings for everything I could find on the net connected to both wake on LAN and wake on wan but still no luck. It does work sometimes but not always, and it works only when I'm at work, turn the computer off and turn it on from my phone right after that, if some time passes it won't work, it seems that computer goes into "deeper" sleep state after few minutes and won't wake up, it does the same thing for turned off state, sleep mode and hibernation.
OS on my work computer is Win 7 64-bit.
Motherboard is ASUS P8Z68-V LX with Realtek onboard LAN card
Router is TP-LINK VN020-F3, we got it from our ISP
What I've setup/tried so far:
1. BIOS settings, wake on PCI enabled (now it's called this, there's no "wake on LAN" option to enable), no power saver or fast boot options
2. Router settings, fixed local IP to my computer, connected my WAN IP with No-IP website to get dynamic DNS because I have dynamic IP address at work, UDP port 9 forwarded and checked if it's open with software, it says opened, ARP setting changed to "bound" to ensure my local IP stays the same no matter what
3. LAN card settings, experimented with some settings in "advanced" tab but power saving mode is disabled, wake on magic packet enabled, wake on patter match tried both enabled and disabled, WOL & Shutdown link speed tried both 10 and 100 Mbps setting, in power management tab all options are checked
4. Power options in Control panel are all set on maximum performance, all power saving options are off
5. TeamViewer options in wake on LAN section are set, selected public address option, used dynamic DNS address I got from no-ip service etc etc
6. I've tried using both TeamViewer and other android apps to wake the computer up, always the same problem
What I still can try:
1. Update BIOS and hope
Since it does work sometimes (as mentioned above) I think I've set it up fine (well, I hope) but maybe this motherboard simply doesn't have the option to keep LAN on after computer is turned off or, as I've read somewhere, router is losing connection to LAN card after some time (that's why I "bounded" my local IP in my ARP router settings, they said it would help).
If you need any more information just ask, thanks in advance for any suggestions, I'll take anything at this point
