Hello,

I have an old Iphone 4 jailbroken and use it for some experimental usage.

I have a home PC which I need to wake on LAN and able to do it from my laptop (from within same network/within home) so no issues. As I'm going out of station for few weeks and I need to start my home PC remotely (which is not possible to do from Internet as my router doesn't allow despite adding port forwarding UDP/9 etc.) outside home. So thinking of keeping my iphone 4 at home which I can access using SSH (as jailbroken) from outside and can get root prompt.

Now I need to know which repo package i need to install (from cydia?) on my jailbroken iphone to get wake-on-lan command (the command usually run on debian linux is wakeonlan or etherwake etc.).

Could anyone please advise? Thanks!
