Remote WOL

Hi
What is the command for WOL from Internet?
If I SSH into the router, what command do I have to type?
Before I updated to the latest beta release of 354b1 I used to use this command.
"usr/sbin/wol -i 192.168.1.255 -p 9 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (mac address) but it won't work for me anymore.

I removed the wol command. Use ether-wake instead (note that it has a different syntax, run "ether-wake" to see usage format).
 
Can I ask you why you have removed the wol command?

I have tried ether-wake command, but cant get it to work, it might be because I dont understand the new ether-wake commands.
By the way, my computers are not sleeping, but shot down when I want to use WOL commands...

Since I switched to Asus's WOL page, it was redundant.

Code:
ether-wake -b 192.168.1.255 -i br0 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
