HA built in backup failed because the NAS did not wake quick enough. The NAS auto wakes when you try to access it, but HA backup needs wait wait longer. It also would benifit if it has a WOL option. should I sumit a github feature request? meanwhile what to do, I am looking at the WOL integration, but looking how to automate this?

If you have a feature request for the frontend you can open one here, for Home Assistant itself please post on the forum. All other feature requests should be made to the developer of that custom card/component.

HA backup needs WOL and/or delay

Backup failed because NAS did not respond soon enough, it auto wakes but needs time. HA backup needs an option for delay also WOL would be nice, if device can’t wake itself.

Could you just use a time trigger to WOL the NAS shortly prior to your backup?
