You need to check that when you send the WoL command you see in Wireshark the WoL packet (called magic-packet).
The packet is an UDP packet
The source Ip will be the K1000 and the destination IP the broadcast address of the network.
The destination port is the port 7/udp
If you do not see it you may need to configure the router to allow broadcast traffic to be routed.
You do not need to route all the broadcast traffic but you can set a very specific rule: route the broadcast traffic UDP, destination port 7, source ip: the K1000
