Great, i've figured it in case someone need it.  
I declared network mode: host so the container can "see" the LAN network.

Thanks to all!

> No, I have not tried any. I was more asking for advise of which one to go with. I have the feeling that some older palettes just slip under the rug and dont get touched again

But WoL is a fix quantity, the protocol has not changed in 10s of years, so why would the node need updating?

Sorry I am cofused by your response, I undertand the WoL protocol hasn't really changed since it was made, I just couldn't get the node to work, but I have now
