About WolLight

WolLight sends Wake-on-LAN magic packets to PCs on the same local network and

keeps a small list of the devices you wake regularly.

Features:

* Wake-on-LAN: sends a standard magic packet as a UDP broadcast on the local

network, with a configurable port.

* Registered devices: save the devices you wake often with a name, MAC address,

broadcast address and port. The list is kept on the device.

* LAN scan: detects the current Wi-Fi subnet and probes addresses in parallel to

list reachable hosts, attempting host-name resolution over NetBIOS and mDNS.

* Online / offline indication: a per-device indicator based on ping results,

refreshed on app start, on return to the foreground and on manual ping. The

state only changes after two consecutive matching results, to reduce false

readings from transient packet loss.

* Ping: sends ten pings at one-second intervals and shows each result plus a

summary.

* Stale-IP recovery: if a Wake-on-LAN or manual ping fails to reach a registered

device's saved IP address, WolLight runs one LAN scan and looks for the same

device by its registered MAC address. If it is found at a different address,

the saved IP address is updated only after you confirm.
