Wake On Lan to PC connected to NEC IP Phone / Fail

We're trying to turn on PCs remotely using Fusion Wake On Lan (WoL). These PCs are connected to the network through NEC IP Phones.

WoL worked back when we used Windows7, but is failing on our newer Windows10 PCs. The Fusion WoL software is unable to detect the MAC address, which is how the "magic packet" is transmitted - as I understand it.

Anyone ever encounter this before?

Thanks
