I can't turn the TV on using the plugin and homekit. I can turn off the TV, change inputs but cannot turn the TV on.

Any suggestions would be great.

wrong Mac address in config, local lan problems

Is there a way to designate what network interface this plugin uses? I am having the same issue with being unable to power on the TV and I believe it's because the magic packet is sending from the default interface instead of the secondary one.

The magic packet is sent to all interfaces:

homebridge-lgwebos-tv/src/wol.js

Line 11 in 767a444

this.ipAddress = '255.255.255.255';

enable debug mode in plugin settings and look on the log.

I've found that when using Docker macvlan interfaces that the 255.255.255.255 address will not work. I have to specify the broadcast address for each network interface, e.g. 192.168.50.255. Having a configuration option would be helpful for these scenarios.

I will add it.
