@Hammad1029

I think it's complicated feature "Spam WOL packets"

How should you send wake on lan packets without knowing the mac of the target?

by scanning the ap? scanning the ap currently and going on the clients does reveal the client address.

You can't scan for sleeping devices. You'd need to preset the MACs and at this point you'd probably have physical access and don't need to send these packets. I don't see the use for this project.

You're probably talking about "wake on wireless lan"

  • Like @spacehuhn said you need to know your targets
  • WOL packets are often protected
  • Like WOL, to use WOWLAN technology you must be connected to an AP.

Sorry but we can't do anything. The soft is not designed to connect to an AP.
Thanks you for helping us to find new ideas :)
