TV Turn On Issue Workaround #19

Closed valaz closed 3 years ago

valaz commented 3 years ago

I can't turn on my TV via homekit (wol) after some time after turning down. Also if TV is down homebridge can't find it after reboot

I tried some workaround - continuously ping my TV IP from Ubuntu terminal. ping 192.168.1.245 Seems this ping prevents TV from deep sleep After that I can turn on in at anytime and HB doesn't lose it after reboot

So I assume such ping can be implemented on plugin level via some JS lib. Is it so? Would be nice to have such config option, e.g. continuousPing: true
