Please add the ability to add a WOL command to the "create" function of your rsync desktop. If I can add the WOL to my schedule backups, I don't have to leave my rsync destination server on continuously. I only use my second f2-221 as an rsync destination so it should be offline except when running rsync.

You can set your rsync backup a schedule, and set your nas power on/off schedule to match your backup schedule. This is a ready solution.

I know that.
Why not add a feature to your backup app that would make your product more consumer friendly?
BTW, my Windows Home Server was able to do this 15 years ago. It was bi-directional. The server could wake the clients to back them up; the clients could wake the server.
