Im currently using a utility to allow me to wake up my systems i have a few computers and port forwarding the utp packet to each computer individually works fine. Im using a Draytek Vigor 2820N

However if i set up 2 rules forwarding the required port to an internal IP the one higher in the list takes priority and the second is ignored. It is NOT possible for me to change the port the router is sent the packet.

So is there a way of sending 1 external port to multiple internal IPs, either *every* computer ( similar to how .255 works on other routers ) or just to the 2 required computers?

Any help is appreciated im kinda in a rush!

from the outside world....
the only solution is multiple public ip's mapped to individual internal ip's.

2820 = 3.3.2_RC5
2950 = 3.2.4

Cheers for the reply!

I do have a second WAN connection, but this is purely designed for a backup incase the first and main connection drops! Any other solutions at all you can think of?

a block of public ip's are not the same as a second wan connection.
you can purchase additional ip's from your isp, add them into the router alias and then map them to individual servers/pc's on your lan.
you could, as you say use your 2nd wan connection as it will have a different wan ip.
as for your WOL, i'm not sure. some drayteks have a WOL feature within them.

2820 = 3.3.2_RC5
2950 = 3.2.4
