A workaround for now... I have my mediaPC behind a WiFi-bridge. And if you 
enable your bridge to clone your units mac addresses it will work with WoL.

Same issue here, as a new and happy xbmc-remote user, only function not working 
for me was the power on button :-(
I implemented this fastfix, and recompiled the source, everything is OK now. 
Please consider broadcast as a feature in upcoming releases.

my modified version of WakoOnLan.java:
