No. The Wake-On-Lan topic has been discussed previously. Currently the single bay My Cloud doesn’t appear to support the feature. The NIC hardware has to support that option and it doesn’t appear it does. Here are just a few prior threads discussing the issue, do a search for others.
Hope this info helps on determining the diffs between gen1 & gen2

Yeah I put that together after I posted… For some reason I thought you had a multi-bay as well.
Wake on Lan is a standard, so I’m assuming (yes I know how dangerous that can be!) it works the same as on any other computer. I’ll ask someone tommorow and get back to you once I can say that for sure.
WoL has been around for desktops for quite some time and allows you to turn your computer on from hibernation remotely without the use of a remote outlet.
Well its only tablets accessing the net, and only one device has the mycloud mobile app which is closed and not running in the background when its not in use. Well im puzzled, i was hoping to avoid the disk churning away and wearing out sooner which is my main concern. I’ve been riddled with issues since the new firmware so I’ll have to think of another nas solution…
