Asus AC56U WOL user script for a Media server?

[rostar99]

I am trying to use a user script to send a WOL magic packet whenever a media file is requested from my media server by a client (mediabrowser and xbox extender for example). In have been running the server 24/7 but I would like to reduce my power consumption as much as possible. I have tried the posted user script https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/wiki/WOL-Script-Wake-Up-Your-Webserver-On-Internet-Traffic but so far no luck. WOL is working manually when using a client app or the router itself but this is not an exceptable work around (WAF is too low). According to the ether-wake log the script is detecting network activity as it should but the server does not wake up. Any help would be appreciated.
