Broadcast Address

[Andreik]

I saw this script and I was thinking if someone knows algorithm to get broadcast address.

The broadcast address depends on the subnet mask.

If your S-mask = 255.255.255.0 => then the broadcast address is X.X.X.255.

Maybe this can help Calculate broadcast address

Thank you very much. That explains why the script doesn't work for me.

I used this function and I get 77.81.153.255 and from the page you mentioned I get 77.81.159.255

I hope now to work properly.

I tried to use the script that I mentioned in first post but I don't know how should look magic packet or what exactly should I change in BIOS to work properly?

This is the link from my motherboard manual.
