&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;section begin=&amp;quot;intro&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;Starting in v13, Kodi can automatically issue a &#039;wake-on-lan&#039; packet to MySQL or a file sharing server right before it needs to connect to it.&amp;lt;section end=&amp;quot;intro&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic setup ==&lt;br /&gt;
Enable wake-on-lan under {{highlight|bordered=yes|[[Settings/System#Power saving|Settings → System → Power saving → Try to wake remote servers on access]]}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When feature gets enabled or shares gets added an autoscan will be done for any servers specified, either in shares or in MySQL settings. The autoscan will if necessary create a file called &#039;wakeonlan.xml&#039; and will add entries for these servers including macaddress which should be picked up in the scan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Advanced settings ==&lt;br /&gt;
While not required for basic operation, some additional settings can be made to the wakeonlan.xml file that is stored in the [[userdata folder]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Sample &#039;wakeonlan.xml&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

! Parameter&lt;br /&gt;
! Description&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! netinittimeout [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time Kodi will wait for network to (re)connect when booting or after resuming from suspend-mode&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! netsettletime [milli secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time to wait for network to be consistently connected before progressing&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! host&lt;br /&gt;
| ipaddress (or network name) of machine you want to wake up&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! mac&lt;br /&gt;
| macaddress&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! pingport&lt;br /&gt;
| default 0 which will perform ordinary icmp ping. else a &#039;connect&#039; attempt will be done to the specified port&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! pingmode&lt;br /&gt;
| only applicable if pingport!=0, if 1 will not only connect to pingport but also wait until data is actually read back&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! timeout [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| specifies how long time (default 600) of inactivity must pass before a new &#039;wake-on-lan&#039; check is performed. a good choice is to use same value as server&#039;s idle-timeout before entering sleep-mode&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! waitonline [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time to wait for machine to wake up (advise is to set this to servers actual anticipated startup time)&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! waitonline2 [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time to perform extended wait for machine to wake up&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! waitservices [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| additional time to wait after ping response, to allow server daemons to startup&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Useful pingport/pingmode combinations ==&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;pingport = 445 / pingmode = 0 - port 445&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; is used by samba (windows file sharing) and can be used for &#039;ping-probing&#039; (but only pingmode = 0)&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;pingport = 3306 / pingmode = 1 - port 3306&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; is default MySQL port and useful if your server is the MySQL host&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;port 21 (ftp), 22 (ssl), 23 (telnet) are also likely to work OK if your server has that service installed&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When using pingport = 0 (normal icmp ping) it is recommended to use waitservices = (ca) 5 to allow services on server to startup after server responds to ping. If using a different pingport it is normally not nessesary to add additional wait time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Limitations / Pitfalls ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan does not wake PVR-servers [http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=195364 (Forum request)]&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan does not wake UPnP-servers, including other Kodi- installations [https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/4940 (Pending PR)]&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan can come &#039;out of sync&#039; if you force-sleep the server (if server stays on shorter time than specified in parameter &#039;timeout&#039; before it suspends)&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan can fail to bring up the progress-dialogue depending on where playback was initiated from. It will still wake the server and start playback, but visual feedback is poor. [https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/4256 (Pending PR)]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changelog / Improvements ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan could fail to wake servers specified by name (not ip-address) but this is solved in Kodi v14/Helix [https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/5341 (Github PR)]&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan did not support [http://kodi.wiki/view/Profiles profiles] but this is solved in Kodi v14/Helix [https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/5984 (Github PR)]&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan could fail to execute during startup when Kodi starts and contacts server really fast, typically with SSD disk and use of MySQL server. Solved in Kodi v16/Jarvis [https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/8474 (Github PR)]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;section begin=&amp;quot;intro&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;Starting in v13, XBMC can automatically issue a &#039;wake-on-lan&#039; packet to MySQL or a file sharing server right before it needs to connect to it.&amp;lt;section end=&amp;quot;intro&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic setup ==&lt;br /&gt;
Enable wake-on-lan under {{highlight|bordered=yes|[[Settings/System#Power saving|Settings → System → Power saving → Try to wake remote servers on access]]}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When feature gets enabled or shares gets added an autoscan will be done for any servers specified, either in shares or in MySQL settings. The autoscan will if necessary create a file called &#039;wakeonlan.xml&#039; and will add entries for these servers including macaddress which should be picked up in the scan.&lt;br /&gt;

|-&lt;br /&gt;
! netinittimeout [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time xbmc will wait for network to (re)connect when booting or after resuming from suspend-mode&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! netsettletime [milli secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time to wait for network to be consistently connected before progressing&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! host&lt;br /&gt;
| ipaddress (or network name) of machine you want to wake up&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! mac&lt;br /&gt;
| macaddress&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! pingport&lt;br /&gt;
| default 0 which will perform ordinary icmp ping. else a &#039;connect&#039; attempt will be done to the specified port&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! pingmode&lt;br /&gt;
| only applicable if pingport!=0, if 1 will not only connect to pingport but also wait until data is actually read back&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! timeout [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| specifies how long time (default 600) of inactivity must pass before a new &#039;wake-on-lan&#039; check is performed. a good choice is to use same value as server&#039;s idle-timeout before entering sleep-mode&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! waitonline [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time to wait for machine to wake up (advise is to set this to servers actual anticipated startup time)&lt;br /&gt;

! waitonline2 [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| time to perform extended wait for machine to wake up&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
! waitservices [secs]&lt;br /&gt;
| additional time to wait after ping response, to allow server daemons to startup&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Useful pingport/pingmode combinations ==&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;pingport = 445 / pingmode = 0 - port 445&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; is used by samba (windows file sharing) and can be used for &#039;ping-probing&#039; (but only pingmode = 0)&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;pingport = 3306 / pingmode = 1 - port 3306&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; is default MySQL port and useful if your server is the MySQL host&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;port 21 (ftp), 22 (ssl), 23 (telnet) are also likely to work OK if your server has that service installed&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When using pingport = 0 (normal icmp ping) it is recommended to use waitservices = (ca) 5 to allow services on server to startup after server responds to ping. If using a different pingport it is normally not nessesary to add additional wait time.&lt;br /&gt;

* Wake on Lan does not wake PVR-servers [http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=195364 (Forum request)]&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan does not wake UPnP-servers, including other Kodi- installations [https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/4940 (Pending PR)]&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan can come &#039;out of sync&#039; if you force-sleep the server (if server stays on shorter time than specified in parameter &#039;timeout&#039; before it suspends)&lt;br /&gt;
* Wake on Lan can fail to bring up the progress-dialogue depending on where playback was initiated from. It will still wake the server and start playback, but visual feedback is poor. [https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/4256 (Pending PR)]&lt;br /&gt;
