I would suggest you contact Comcast. They might be able to help you out
Ahhhh, the optimism of the hopelessly naive. Remember, the people working at the cable ISPs are there for a reason: they were too dumb to get jobs at the phone company.
Tell me if my standards are too high, but when the Tier 3 support for an ISP servicing Indianapolis, IN can't even find Indiana on a map, you know you're fucked for paying them.
Kennedy's moon mission was just about getting there and bank so we could thumb our noses at the Soviet Union. Neener neener neener. If we go again, the mission is different.
That's right. This time, it's about more than just going to the bank. The first trips were to case the joint, now NASA is going back to pull off the heist of the millenium so they can use the moon money thus obtained to fund future projects.
Unless you route them, of course. Cisco can route or block directed broadcasts. If you allow them, you can wake up PCs in remote subnets using magic packets. Watch out for increased traffic though!!
Another solution is to have a PC on each subnet designated as the "wakeup machine". Install $WOL_UTILIY on each, then send out the packets local to each subnet.
Perhaps this gentleman should present us with a GOOD DESIGN isntead of just complaining about BAD DESIGN.
Yeah, the same guy that sneers at his readers who don't run their browsers maximised at his "best viewed at" resolution for being from the early 1990's.
With 500 PCs, MS SMS might be worth looking into. I'm looking at the SMS Wakeup from E1 right now, since I can't keep these wonderful people from turning off their PCs. SUS got to be so unwieldy, when we upgraded to SMS with the Update stuff it was a huge relief. Never tried WUS, it was vapor for over a year before we upgraded.
Wake on LAN is primarliy a NIC/driver/motherboard issue. From what you are saying, your PCs support it, but you are not sending the right kind of wakeup call. When a PC that's in standby or "off" receives a magic packet (which is what I've looked into), a wake up frame or the link state changes (depending on what you set it to do), the PC turns on. (getting them to standby/sleep reliably is harder. WoL can usually be handled without the OS) Check out magic packet info and MS reference.
If you think Radar Rat Race is good, wait 'til you play Infiltrator. You haven't lived until you sit down in the cockpit of the Whizbang Enterprises Gizmo DHX-1 Attack Helicopter with Captain Johnny "Jimbo-Baby" McGibbits!

What does not knowing the IP address of Comcast's DNS servers have to do with getting a shell session to a subscriber's home machine?

Mmm, Force Orgasm.
Why? Does she jiggle when she walks?
Take the Patch Train to Crashville
And I'll meet you at the station.

You must be new here.

No, that's the SMS Wakeup from E1 that I am researching.
A little what? Irony in motion, perhaps?
Yeah, but the color schemes would fucking, um, well, be something to see.

Wha's that, Tugga? A rocky planet? I bet we can get in some great foights there! I'm Russell Crowe, and we're going Foightin' 'Round ANOTHA World!

You want to see Ghyslain jump the General Lee over the creek, same as the rest of us. Stop with the denial, man!

Who here would PAY to see Microsoft jump off a bridge?
You have to know how to ask. Instead of asking for the University to pay for your housing, ask if you can sleep in the lab.
Actually, it will be ad-libbed live on-air, just as soon as they finish breeding up super-animators with wrists that can take it.
On the airlines, or in general?
