BYO NAS , Problem Waking Up

#1
I want to Replace My Old DNS-320 ShareCenter.
I have all the Goodies to make a Smashing Unit.
But Can't figure out How to Wake it up.
With the DNS-320, Once you Map your Network Drive ( in this case the nas ) , it's easy to do, just click on it and bingo a couple of seconds later it's awake.
Now all this is done without using wake on lan.
So my question is how does d-link do it with the dns-320, in windows 10 all i did was map it, no setting up wol.
I found setting up wol very picky and a pain to setup, and for me with 6 computers a Pain. I realise a standard computers motherboard is made differently to a nas, but there must be some way wake it up from a normal pc";}

If you get MR2200 or other Synology router, you will be able to wake up a NAS via LAN or even over the internet.
If you enable drive hibernation, it will automatically go sleep. When you try to open a shared folder, this will wake up those disks.
If you need help with your old NAS, try support here https://eu.dlink.com/uk/en/support

I hope this helps.
