Wake on lan stopped working for Android

This app use to be able to wake my PC over lan but it has not worked for a while on Android. Can anyone confirm if they can get WOL working with the most recent Android app?

Still works here.

Gotta ask the obvious question; did your router maybe renew the IP address and it changed?

It has the same ip. Wake on Lan works with other apps but cannot get it work with the Android app.

Did maybe, for some odd reason, the MAC address get removed from the app? Nothing changed on the PC regarding any WOL settings, right? In the BIOS (happens sometimes after a BIOS update)?

That's all I got dude, sorry :-(

Edit: just saw you said it works with other apps, the MAC thing is the only thing I can think of then :-\

Uninstalling then reinstalling the app solved the problem. Only wish it had wake on wan.
