Hi All

I have a 3750G Cisco switch running on my home network, and recently wanted to get WOL setup (at the moment just from an Android App but will likely move this to a WOL server like Raspberry Pi or integrated into OpenHAB. However i get the feeling that WOL is blocked by default on Cisco L3 switches, ive looked at some guides but its all referring to WOL across VLANS and subnets, whereas this is all contained within 1 network. I have PFSense running on my router and the WOL service there also isnt working so im presuming its the switch thats blocking the broadcast? That being said i have read that when the WOL server and client is on the same subnet it should just work...so not sure where i need to start looking.

Bit of a Cisco Noob, learning as i go :)
