      Posting here before considering opening a bug report...

      I noticed that since I upgraded to version 2.7.2 the Wake On LAN status is consistently set to "offline" regardless of whether the machine is offline or not.

      The WOL packets still send and start the remote machine successfully.

      Not sure if it's related to the static ARP issues we've been having with DHCP in this version.

        I can confirm that this is caused by the static arp issue here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14970

        Disregard this post. I'll leave it here in case anyone else is curious.

          @zkhcohen, thanks for the pointer. I was having this same issue and came across this post from Google. The issue you linked to I think describes the problem pretty well. If it keeps getting removed we might need to add a cron job to keep adding it back for now as others did for https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14374.
