Describe the bug
Sending a wakeup packet no longer wakes the PS4 from Rest Mode

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Expected behavior
The PS4 to wakeup

Additional context
This happens on PS4s already registered from the 1.2.1 release and I did not try to register the device again

Could you try to re-register the console?
Are you trying to wake up a console that has been discovered automatically (has an orange or blue bar in the icon) or added manually? In the second case, did you enter a raw IP or a hostname?

You can also try to run wireshark on your network interface, apply the filter udp.port == 987 and look for a packet from your host to the PS4 which has data that starts with WAKEUP (Don't post the contents of the packet here, it contains your private wakeup info).

Well, I don't know what's different now, but I am unable to reproduce the bug again. It's working fine now, for whatever reason.

It happened again shortly after making this comment, I'm going to do some more testing to see what factors were involved. I think it has something to do either with trying to send the wakeup packet with the PS4 controller plugged into the computer, or because I was launching Chiaki on a second monitor.

This also happens to me, I couldnt wake it up not even once. I checked with Wireshark and the packet is being sent.

I think the PS4 also has some issues with wakeup when a game is downloaded in sleep mode.

@thestr4ng3r For my case, nothing is being downloaded, it is truely idle during sleep mode.
